Description of key information
Acute oral toxicity: Key study. Method according to OECD guideline 423, GLP study. The LD50 of the test item is higher than 2000 mg/kg body weight by oral route in the rat. The LD50 cut-off may be considered to be 5000 mg/kg body weight by oral route in the rat.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Acute toxicity: via oral route

- Executive summary:
The acute oral toxicity of the test item has been tested in accordance with OECD Test Guideline 423, following GLP. 12 female Wistar rats divided in 4 groups were administered sequentially with test item by oral gavage. The first set of 3 female rats was given a single dose of 300 mg/kg body weight. No mortality was observed at this dose level, so the second set of 3 female rats was treated at the same dose level. No mortality was observed at this dose level, so the third set of 3 female rats was treated at the higher dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. As no mortality was observed at this dose level, the fourth set of 3 female rats was treated at the same dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. The body weight evolution of the animals remained normal during the study. No clinical signs were observed. The macroscopic examination of the animals at the end of the study did not reveal treatment related effects. The LD50 of the test item is higher than 2000 mg/kg body weight by oral route in the rat. The LD50 cut-off of the test item may be considered to be 5000 mg/kg body weight by oral route in the rat.
