Description of key information
One acute toxicity study via oral route according to OECD 423; EC 440/2008, Method B.1 tris; OPPTS 870.1100 (GLP, Klimisch 1) was performed with the test item in rats.
Under the conditions of the study, a single oral application of the test item to rats at a dose of 300 mg/kg body weight was associated with signs of toxicity but no mortality.
Under the conditions of the study, a single oral application of the test item to rats at a dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight was associated with signs of toxicity but no mortality.
The median lethal dose of after a single oral administration to female rats, observed over a period of 14 days is:
LD50 cut-off (rat): 5000 mg/ kg bw.

- Free access to tap water, sulphur acidified to a pH value of approximately 2.8 (drinking water, municipal residue control, microbiological controls at regular intervals)
- The animals were kept in groups in IVC cages, type III H, polysulphone cages on Altromin saw fibre bedding

- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- water
- Details on oral exposure:
- The test item was administered at a single dose by gavage using a feeding tube.
The test item was administered at a dose volume of 10 mL/kg body weight. - Doses:
- The starting dose was selected to be 300 mg/kg body weight. No Compound-related mortality was recorded for any animals of step 1.
Based on these results and according to the acute toxic class method regime, a second step was performed at a dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight. No compound-related mortality was recorded for any animal of step 2.
Based on these results and according to the acute toxic class method regime, a third step was performed at a dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight. No compound-related mortality was recorded for any animal of step 3.
Based on these results and according to the acute toxic class method regime no further testing was required. - No. of animals per sex per dose:

- Preparation of the Animals
The animals were marked for individual identification by tail painting.
Prior to the administration a detailed clinical observation was made of all animals. Only healthy animals were used.
Prior to the administration food was withheld from the test animals for 18 to 19.5 hours (access to water was permitted). Following the period of fasting the animals were weighed and the test item was administered. Food was provided again approximately 3 hours post dosing.
Observation Period
All animals were observed for 14 days after dosing for general clinical signs, morbidity and mortality.
Weight Assessment
The animals were weighed on day 1 (prior to the administration) and on days 8 and 15.
Clinical Examination
A careful clinical examination was made several times on the day of dosing (at least once during the first 30 minutes and with special attention given during the first 4 hours post-dose). As soon as symptoms were noticed they were recorded. Thereafter, the animals were observed for clinical signs once daily until the end of the observation period. All abnormalities were recorded.
Cageside observations included changes in the skin and fur, eyes and mucous membranes. Also respiratory, circulatory, autonomic and central nervous systems and somatomotor activity and behaviour pattern were examined. Particular attention was directed to observations of tremor, convulsions, salivation, diarrhoea, lethargy, sleep and coma.
Pathology
At the end of the observation period the animals were sacrificed with an overdosage of pentobarbital injected intraperitoneally at a dosage of 400-800 mg/kg bw.
All animals were subjected to gross necropsy and examined macroscopically for gross pathological changes. Due to the absence of gross pathological changes no tissues were preserved for a possible histopathological evaluation.
Evaluation of Results
Results were interpreted according to OECD Guideline 423, Annex 2 and GHS.
Individual reactions of each animal were recorded at each time of observation.
Toxic response data were recorded by dose level.
Nature, severity and duration of clinical observations were described.
Body weight changes were summarised in a tabular form.

Under the conditions of the present study, a single oral application of the test item to rats at a dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight was associated with signs of toxicity but no mortality.
The median lethal dose of the test item after a single oral administration to female rats, observed over a period of 14 days is:
LD50 cut-off (rat): 5000 mg/ kg bw - Executive summary:
One group of three female WISTAR Crl: WI(Han) rats, were treated with the test item by oral gavage administration at a dosage of 300 mg/kg body weight. The test item was diluted in the vehicle aqua ad injections (sterile water) to a concentration of 0.03 g/mL and administered at a dose volume of 10 mL/kg.
Two groups, each of three female WISTAR Crl: WI(Han) rats, were treated with the test item by oral gavage administration at a dosage of 2000 mg/kg body weight. The test item was diluted with the vehicle aqua ad injections (sterile water) to a concentration of 0.2 g/mL and administered at a dose volume of 10 mL/kg.
All animals used in the study after their entrance at BSL were allowed to acclimatise to the laboratory conditions for at least 6 days. The animals were observed on delivery, on inclusion in the study and before administration for mortality/morbidity and other clinical signs. All animals were examined for clinical signs several times on the day of dosing and once daily until the end of the observation period. Their body weights were recorded on day 1 (prior to the administration) and on days 8 and 15. All animals were necropsied and examined macroscopically.Results per step
Step Sex/No. Starting Dose (mg/kg bw) Number of Animals Number of Intercurrent Deaths 1 female/ 1-3 300 3 0 2 female/ 4-6 2000 3 0 3 female/ 7-9 2000 3 0 All animals survived until the end of the study showing signs of toxicity.
The most relevant clinical findings in the animals were reduced spontaneous activity, moving the bedding, apathy, hunched posture, prone position, wasp waist, piloerection, half eyelid closure and eyes closed. More severe clinical signs were recorded in the animals that received the higher dose. All animals recovered within up to one day post-dose.
Throughout the 14-day observation period, the weight gain of the animals was within the normal range of variation for this strain.
At necropsy, no macroscopic findings were observed in any animal of any step.
