- Clinical signs:
- other: Clinical signs of toxicity were observed in dose groups of 2.0 mL/kg and greater and include sluggishness, lacrimation, kyphosis, unsteady gait and diarrhea, which appeared within 30-45 min postdosing, The days following dosing, some rats showed piloerect
- Gross pathology:
- The only consistent finding at necropsy of rats that died was mottled dark pink or red lungs. No gross pathology was seen in survivors at necropsy.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Remarks:
- Based on EU implementation
- Conclusions:
- The LD50 values indicate a moderate degree of toxicity. Females had a LD50 value numerically about twice that for males. The marginally significant difference in LD50 values between males and females were due mainly to the greater variability of females to the peroral toxicity of ENB.
- Executive summary:
Ballantyne et al (1997) published acute oral LD50 values of 2276 mg/kg (males) and 5071 mg/kg (females) for ENB in rats.
