In this subacute toxicity study, the test substance was administered daily by oral gavage to SPF-bred Wistar rats of both sexes at dose levels of 0, 50, 200 and 1000 mg/kg body weight/day for a period of 28 days. The study comprised 5 animals per group and sex which were sacrificed after 28 days of treatment. Additional 5 rats per sex and group were used at 0 and 1000 mg/kg. These animals were treated for 28 days and then allowed a 14-day treatment-free recovery period after which they were sacrificed. Clinical signs, food consumption and body weights were recorded periodically during the treatment and recovery periods. Ophthalmoscopic examinations were performed at the end of the treatment and recovery periods. At the end of the dosing period and the treatment-free period, blood samples were withdrawn for hematology and plasma chemistry analyses, and urine samples were collected for biochemical and microscopic analyses. All animals were killed, examined post mortem and necropsied. Samples of major organs from all group 1 (0 mg/kg) and group 4 (1000 mg/kg) animals, as well as gross lesions from all animals were processed as hematoxylin and eosin stained slides and examined by light microscopy. The results of the study are summarized as follows:
Mortality: All animals survived the scheduled treatment period.
Clinical Signs: There were no test article-related clinical signs in any group.
Body Weight: There was no effect on body weight.
Food Consumption / Relative Food Consumption: There were no effects on food consumption or relative food consumption.
Ophthalmoscopic Examinations: There were no treatment-related changes on the ophthalmological findings.
Hematology / Clinical Biochemistry / Urinalysis: There were no treatment-related effects on hematology, clinical biochemistry and urinalysis data at termination of the treatment nor at the end of the treatmentfree recovery period which could be considered of toxicological significance.
Organ Weights and Organ Weight Ratios: There were no treatment-related changes in organ weights and ratios.
Macroscopic and Microscopic Findings: All gross and microscopic lesions reorded in this study were considered to be spontaneous in origin. Their incidence and severity was similar in control and treated rats. There was no morphologic evidence of toxicity to test article.

Additional information
A 28d study in rats (OECD guideline 407) was performed to evaluate the toxicity of the test substance after repeated application.
The test article was administered daily by oral gavage to SPF-bred Wistar rats of both sexes at dose levels of 0, 50, 200 and 1000 mg/kg body weight/day for a period of 28 days. The study comprised 5 animals per group and sex which were sacrificed after 28 days of treatment. Additional 5 rats per sex and group were used at 0 and 1000 mg/kg. These animals were treated for 28 days and then allowed a 14-day treatment-free recovery period after which they were sacrificed. Clinical signs, food consumption and body weights were recorded periodically during the treatment and recovery periods. Ophthalmoscopic examinations were performed at the end of the treatment and recovery periods. Haematology, urinalysis as well as pathological and microscopic analysis were performed.
All animals survived the scheduled treatment period. There were no test article-related clinical signs in any group. Body weight and food consumption were unaffected by the test substance. There were no treatment-related effects on hematology, clinical biochemistry and urinalysis, neither at termination of the treatment nor at the end of the treatment free recovery period. All gross and microscopic lesions recorded in this study were considered to be spontaneous in origin. Their incidence and severity was similar in control and treated rats. Changes in organ weight were not observed.
Based on the results of this study, 1000 mg/kg of the test article was established as the no-observed-adverse-effect-level (NOAEL) and as the no-observed- effect-level (NOEL).
Repeated dose studies via dermal route were not performed. The test article has a logPow of 10 and a molecular weight of 583 g/mol. Thus, the substance is not well absorbed via skin. Additionally, the results of other dermal tests to acute toxicity, irritation and sensitization show that the substance does not cause any reaction to skin. Therefore, toxic effects upon repeated dermal application are unlikely.
Repeated dose toxicity after inhalation of the test substance was not investigated as major part of the substance has a particle size of > 40µm (92 %) or more and inhalable particles of < 10 or < 4 µm are not included.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The available experimental test data are reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation 1272/2008. There were no significant toxic effects at doses up to 1000 mg/kg bw upon subacute oral exposure in rats. As a result, the substance is not classified for repeated dose toxicity under Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, as amended for the thirteenth time in Regulation (EC) No 2018/1480.
