For liquid materials, the dose was based on the sample weight as calculated from the specific gravity. The vehicle, if any, was chosen because of its lack of known toxicity, lack of physiological effect and because it is relatively unreactive with other chemical substances.

- Interpretation of results:
- practically nontoxic
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: expert judgment

- Executive summary:
The study was performed to assess the acute oral toxicity of the test material in the Wistar strain of rat. The study was performed pre-GLP and followed a method equivalent to OECD guideline 401. The test material was administered orally, after fasting for 16 -20 hours, once only by gavage. 10 male test animals were dosed at 5000 mg/kg body weight. Mortality and clinical signs were monitored during the study. All animals were not subjected to gross necropsy after an observation period of 14 days. There were no deaths but lethargy was noted in five or more animals 3-4 hours post dose. Isolated instances of prostration, diarrhea, eyes bulging, and chromorhinorrhea were also noted 3-4 hours post dose. One instance of chromorhinorrhea was noted on Day 1. All animals were normal on Days 2 through to 5. One instance of lethargy was noted on Day 6. All animals were normal on Days 7 and 8. Isolated instance of chromorhinorrhea was noted on Days 9 and 10. All animals were normal on Days 11 and 12. An isolated instance of chromorhinorrhea was noted on Day 1 Isolated instances of lethargy, piloerection, and ptosis were noted on Day 14. The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the male Wistar strain rat was estimated to be greater than 5000 mg/kg bodyweight.

The test substance was evaluated in 10 New Zealand white rabbits. A dose of 2000 mg/kg test substance (undiluted), was applied to intact and abraded clipped skin site under a occlusive dressing for 24 hours. Skin observations were made 24 hours after patch removal and then daily for 14 days for signs of toxicity, pharmacological effects and mortality. One test animal died on day four; pre-death toxic signs included lethargy and diarrhea. Diarrhea was noted in 5 animals. Isolated instances of yellow nasal discharge, lethargy, and ptosis were occasionally noted in 3 animals. Three out of nine surviving animals remained normal throughout the observation period.
