Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: OECD GHS
Conclusions:
the results in the mentioned study is: LD 50 (rat) >5ml/kg
Executive summary:

The oral administration of Sophorolipids in rats up to 5ml/kg followed of an observational period of 14days allow to conclude:

- no mortality

-no clinical signs

-normal body weight increase in animals

- no mascroscopics findings

herewith the oral LD 50 in the test conditions is >5ml/kg bw

we conclude the substance is not toxic.
