Description of key information
TERT-BUTYLPEROXIDE ISOPROPYL CARBONATE, 75% SOLUTION IN AROMATIC FREE MINERAL
SPIRIT was administered to Wistar rats of each sex at 2000 mg/kg body weight. Since no mortality occurred, the oral LD50 value of TERT-BUTYLPEROXIDE ISOPROPYL CARBONATE, 75% SOLUTION IN AROMATIC FREE MINERAL SPIRIT in Wistar rats was established as exceeding 2000 mg/kg body weight.
In the acute dermal toxicity sudy in rats, no mortality occurred. The LD50 of the substance was established as exceeding
2000 mg/kg body weight.
Assessment of acute oral toxicity was carried out based on OECD No.423, 'Acute Oral Toxicity - Acute Toxic Class Method'. For the dermal toxicity, testing was based on the guideline OECD No.402, “Acute Dermal Toxicity”. Based on these conclusions in oral and dermal toxicity testing, the substance does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for oral and dermal toxicity.

TREATMENT
Frequency
Females: Single dosage, on day 1 .
Males: Unintentionally, two dosages were given on t=O and
t=0. 5 hours (see also dose volume). This event was
evaluated by the study director and considered not to
have affected the study integrity. These two dosages were
regarded as a single dose.
Dose level (volume)
Females: 2000 mg/kg (2. 2 ml/kg) body weight.
Males: 2000 mg/kg. This dose level was reached by
administration of 818 mg/kg (0. 9 ml/kg) b. w. and 1182
mg/kg (1.3 ml/kg) body weight.
Dose volumes calculated as follows:
dose level : density (905 kg/m3).

Body weights
Days 1 (pre-administration), 8 and 15.
Clinical signs
At periodic intervals on the day of dosing (day 1) and
once daily thereafter, until day 15. The time of onset,
degree and duration were recorded and the symptoms graded
according to fixed scales:
Maximum grade 4: grading slight (1) to very severe (4)
Maximum grade 3: grading slight (1) to severe (3)
Maximum grade 1: presence is scored (1).
Necropsy
At the end of the observation period, all animals were

procedure and subjected to necropsy. Descriptions of all
internal macroscopic abnormalities were recorded. - Sex:

considered to be caused by the irritating properties of the test substance.
Since no mortality occurred, the oral LD50 value of TERT-BUTYLPEROXIDE ISOPROPYL
CARBONATE, 75% SOLUTION IN AROMATIC FREE MINERAL SPIRIT in Wistar rats was
established as exceeding 2000 mg/kg body weight.
Based on these results and according to the EC criteria for classification and
labelling requirements for dangerous substances and preparations (Guidelines in
Commission Directive 93/21/EEC), TERT-BUTYLPEROXIDE ISOPROPYL CARBONATE, 75%
SOLUTION IN AROMATIC FREE MINERAL SPIRIT does not have to be classified and has
no obligatory labelling requirement for oral toxicity. - Executive summary:
Assessment of acute oral toxicity with TERT - BUTYLPEROXIDE ISOPROPYL CARBONATE,
75% SOLUTION IN AROMATIC FREE MINERAL SPIRIT in the rat (Acute Toxic Class
Method).
The study was carried out based on the guidelines described in: EC Commission
Directive 96/54/EC, Part B.1 tris 'Acute Toxicity-Oral, Acute Toxic Class
Method' and OECD No.423, 'Acute Oral Toxicity - Acute Toxic Class Method'.
TERT-BUTYLPEROXIDE ISOPROPYL CARBONATE, 75% SOLUTION IN AROMATIC FREE MINERAL
SPIRIT was administered by oral gavage to three Wistar rats of each sex at 2000
mg/kg body weight. Animals were subjected to daily observations and weekly
determination of body weight. Macroscopic examination was performed after
terminal sacrifice (day 15).
No mortality occurred.
Clinical signs observed during the study period were as follows:
Males: lethargy in one male on day 1.
Females: lethargy, hunched posture and uncoordinated movements on day 1 and red
staining of the head and neck on days 2 and 3.
The mean body weight gain shown by the animals over the study period was
considered to be normal.
An irregular surface of the forestomach or thickening of the glandular mucosa
and the limiting ridge was found in all animals at macroscopic post mortem
examination. No further abnormalities were found.
Local toxicity was produced by the test substance in the stomach, which was
considered to be caused by the irritating properties of the test substance.
Since no mortality occurred, the oral LD50 value of TERT-BUTYLPEROXIDE ISOPROPYL
CARBONATE, 75% SOLUTION IN AROMATIC FREE MINERAL SPIRIT in Wistar rats was
established as exceeding 2000 mg/kg body weight.
Based on this conclusion and according to the EC criteria for classification and
labelling requirements for dangerous substances and preparations (Guidelines in
Commission Directive 93/21/EEC), TERT-BUTYLPEROXIDE ISOPROPYL CARBONATE, 75%
SOLUTION IN AROMATIC FREE MINERAL SPIRIT does not have to be classified and has
no obligatory labelling requirement for oral toxicity.

Assessment of acute dermal toxicity with TRIGONOX BPIC-C75 in the rat. The study was carried out based on the guidelines described in: EC Commission Directive 92/69/EEC, Part 8.3, “Acute Toxicity-Dermal” and OECD No.402, “Acute Dermal Toxicity”. TRIGONOX BPIC-C75 was administered to five Wistar rats of each sex by dermal application at 2000 mg/kg body weight for 24 hours. Animals were subjected to daily observations and weekly determination of body weight. Macroscopic examination was performed after terminal sacrifice (day 15). No mortality occurred.
Lethargy, ptosis, hunched posture, chromodacryorrhoea, piloerection, hypothermia and/or quick breathing were noted among the animals. The animals had recovered from the symptoms by day between days 1 and 9. Scales, general erythema and/or scabs were seen in the treated skin-area of the animals during the observation period. The changes noted in body weight gain in males and females were within the range expected for rats used in this type of study and ware therefore considered not indicative of toxicity. No abnormalities were found at macroscopic post modem examination of the animals.
The dermal LD50 value of TRIGONOX BPIC-C75 in Wistar rats was established to exceed 2000 mg/kg body weight.
Based on these results and according to the EC criteria for classification and labelling requirements for dangerous substances and preparations (Guidelines in Commission Directive 93/21/EEC), TRIGONOX BPIC-C75 does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for dermal toxicity.

Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on these results and according to the EC criteria for classification and labelling requirements for dangerous substances and preparations (Guidelines in Commission Directive 93/21/EEC), the test substance does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for acute toxicity. Data are conclusive, but not sufficient for classification.
