Endpoint summary
Administrative data
Description of key information
According to acute oral toxicity assay, copper Diammine Bitetrazole (CuDABT) is considered as non-toxic or in UN GHS No category (LD50 > 2,000 mg/kg). No hazard statement or signalling is required.
Inhalation acute toxicity assay is not necessary because of the high particle size and very low vapor pressure.
Dermal acute toxicity assay is not necessary because no adverse effect was observed in the acute toxicity assay by oral route and the skin sensitization in vivo study shows no systemic effect.

- Preliminary study:
- Suspensions of CuDABT in Milli-Q water, at 30 g/L and at 200 g/L, were homogeneous at initial time and 7 days after preparation, and stable 5 hours and 7 days after preparation.
Dissolved copper was assessed to evaluate potential dissociation of CuDABT in both copper and 5,5’-bi-1H-tetrazole diammonium. Dissolved copper measurements in suspension indicated that there was very little dissolved copper (max 0.03% at initial time). Dissolved copper concentration was lower at 7 days than at initial time. Therefore, a fresh CuDABT suspension was prepared the morning of each administration day. - Key result
- Sex:
- female
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Effect level:
- > 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Remarks on result:
- not determinable
- Mortality:
- No unscheduled deaths were observed on rats treated with the test item at 300 mg/kg and at 2000 mg/kg during the observation period.
- Clinical signs:
- No clinical signs of toxicity were observed on rats in the 300 mg/kg group, during the observation period. Nose irritation red (rat 419) were observed in the 300 mg/kg group. These clinical signs were not considered to be related to test item administration.
No clinical signs of toxicity were observed on rats in the 2000 mg/kg group, during the observation period. Wound, scabs (rat 425) were observed in the 2000 mg/kg group. These clinical signs were not considered to be related to test item administration. - Body weight:
- At reception, 8 week-old rats had a higher body weight than 9 week-old rats. Therefore, a weight difference at D0 was observed between group 1 and group 2 rats. This difference remained stable throughout the in-life observation period. The body weight gain was the similar for all animals.
- Gross pathology:
- No macroscopic changes were observed by external examination of the body and in lung with trachea, heart, liver, oesophagus, spleen, pancreas, digestive system, kidneys, adrenal glands, bladder, lymph nodes and reproductive organs.
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- In accordance with the EC No. 1272/2008 Regulation, the test item Copper Diammine Bitetrazole (CuDABT) is considered as non-toxic or in UN GHS No category. No hazard statement or signalling is required.
- Executive summary:
The goal of this study was to evaluate the acute oral toxicity of the test item Copper Diammine Bitetrazole (CuDABT), in rat. The study design was established in accordance with OECD Guideline No. 423 "Acute Oral Toxicity – Acute Toxic Class Method", December 17th, 2001.
Method
At 30 g/L and 200 g/L, the test item was not soluble in water. In the preliminary assay, suspensions of test item at 30 and 200 g/L were homogenous at initial time and 7 days after preparation. The test item preparations were stable at 5 hours and at 7 days.
Test item suspensions were prepared the day of administration and stirred continuously, in order to obtain and maintain a homogeneous suspension throughout the administration.
For each dose, six nulliparous and non gravid female WISTAR rats were treated with the test item in 2 successive sessions (3 rats per session). The session using the higher dose of the test item was started only when it was certain that the rats treated in the preceding session survived.
For each session, each animal was observed at least once a day for mortality, clinical signs and body weight, during 15 days. On completion of the observation period, all animals were euthanized and a necropsy including macroscopic examination of all major organs was realized.
Results
Test item doses and treatment
Based on the TG423 Guideline, theoretical doses were 300 and 2000 mg/kg. Suspensions used to treat animals were analyzed. Corresponding doses were: 340 ± 5.7 mg/kg and 2136 ± 145 mg/kg.
Mortality and clinical signs:
No unscheduled deaths and no clinical signs of toxicity were observed on rats treated with the test item at the 300 mg/kg dose, during the observation period.
No unscheduled deaths and no clinical signs of toxicity were observed on rats treated with the test item at the 2000 mg/kg dose, during the observation period.
Macroscopic examination
External examination of the body was normal. No macroscopic changes was observed in lung with trachea, heart, liver, oesophagus, spleen, pancreas, digestive system, kidneys, adrenal glands, bladder, lymph nodes and reproductive organs.
Conclusion
In accordance with the EC No. 1272/2008 Regulation, the test item Copper Diammine Bitetrazole (CuDABT) is considered as non-toxic or in UN GHS No category. No hazard statement or signalling is required.

Acute toxicity: via inhalation route
Link to relevant study records
- Endpoint:
- acute toxicity: inhalation
- Data waiving:
- study technically not feasible
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because exposure of humans via inhalation is not likely taking into account the vapour pressure of the substance and/or the possibility of exposure to aerosols, particles or droplets of an inhalable size
Reference
Endpoint conclusion
- Quality of whole database:
- In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VIII (Regulation (EU) 2016/863), testing by the inhalation route is appropriate if exposure of humans via inhalation is likely taking into account the vapour pressure of the substance and/or the possibility of exposure to aerosols, particles or droplets of an inhalable size. Furthermore, the OECD guidance document 436 indicates that to allow for exposure of all relevant regions of the respiratory tract, aerosols with mass median aerodynamic diameters ranging from 1 to 4 µm are recommended. The particle size distribution (section 4.5) of CuDABT shows that only 3 % of particles are below 4 µM and the vapour pressure is very low: 0.0000000127 Pa (section) 4.6. Therefore, acute inhalation toxicity test is not performed.
Acute toxicity: via dermal route
Link to relevant study records
- Endpoint:
- acute toxicity: dermal
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study need not be conducted because (i) inhalation of the substance is likely and (ii) skin contact in production and/or use is not likely and (iii) the physicochemical and toxicological properties suggest no potential for a significant rate of absorption
Reference
Endpoint conclusion
- Quality of whole database:
- In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VIII (Regulation (EU) 2016/863), Testing by the dermal route does not need to be conducted if:
-the substance does not meet the criteria for classification as acute toxicity or STOT SE by the oral route and,
-no systemic effects have been observed in in vivo studies with dermal exposure.
No adverse effect was observed in the acute toxicity assay by oral route (CuDABT is not classified for acute oral toxicity) and the skin sensitization in vivo study shows no systemic effect. Therefore, acute toxicity dermal test is not performed.
Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
In accordance with the EC No. 1272/2008 Regulation, the test item Copper Diammine Bitetrazole (CuDABT) is considered as non-classified or in UN GHS No category. No hazard statement or signaling is required.
