Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Additional information

The available in vivo data on mice and rats (publications) were used to assess the acute oral toxicity in a weight of evidence approach. In a metabolism, pharmacokinetic and toxicity study in rats (reference 7 .2.1 -1), an LD50 of > 6000 mg/kg bw was determined. In mice, an LD50 of 7888 mg/kg bw was determined (reference 7.2.1 -2). In other studies, comparable LD50 values were determined in mice (LD50 = 6400 mg/kg bw; reference 7.2.1 -6, LD50 = 4400 mg/kg bw; reference 7.2.1 -4, LD50 > 3000 mg/kg bw, reference 7.2.1 -5) or rats (LD50 = 5050 mg/kg bw; reference 7.2.1 -3, LD50 > 6000 mg/kg bw; reference 7.2.1 -5), respectively. Since all available data indicate a low acute oral toxicity potential of the test item in different species, the whole data set is regarded as sufficient to cover the endpoint acute oral toxicity. Accordingly, the test item is considered to be classified as UN GHS No Category. Therefore no in vivo study was performed recently. This decision is in line with REACH Regulation (EG) No 1907/2006, Annex XI (1) and in the interests of animal welfare (avoidance of unnecessary in vivo experiments).

In conclusion, the determined high LD50 values of the test item indicate a low toxicity and do not warrant a classification for acute oral toxicity (UN GHS: No Category).

Justification for classification or non-classification

Classification, Labelling, and Packaging Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008
The available experimental test data are suitable for classification purposes under Regulation 1272/2008 (CLP). As a result the test item is not considered to be classified for acute oral toxicity under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, as amended for the tenth time in Regulation (EU) No 2017/776.
