Conclusions:
An acute oral study was carried on Wistar rats to determine the acute oral toxicity of Basic Red 76. Groups of 3 male and 3 female rats received a single oral dose of 2000 mg/kg bw.The LD50 was reported to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

An acute oral study was carried on Wistar rats to determine the acute oral toxicity of Basic Red 76.

Basic Red 76 was administered by oral gavage to a group of three female Wistar rats and subsequently to a group of three male Wistar rats at 2000 mg/kg bw. Animals were subjected to daily observations and weekly determination of body weight. Macroscopic examination was performed after terminal sacrifice (day 15).

No mortality occurred. Hunched posture was noted in one female and 3 males on day 1. Red staining of the back and/or snout and/or head was noted in 1 female and 2 males between days 1 and 11. Red and/or yellow faeces and/or yellow urine were seen among the animals on days 2 and/or 3. The mean body weight gain over the study period was considered to be normal. No abnormalities were found at macroscopic post mortem examination of the animals.

 

The LD50 was reported to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw
