Description of key information
Acute oral toxicity:
The acute oral toxicity dose (LD50) was considered based on different studies conducted on rats for the given test chemical. The LD50 value is >5000 mg/kg bw. The value concluded that the LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw, for acute oral toxicity. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute oral toxicity.
Acute Inhalation Toxicity:
The acute inhalation toxicity study need not be conducted because exposure to humans via inhalation route is not likely taking into account due to low vapour pressure of the test chemical, which is reported to be 0.097 mmHg. Thus, exposure to inhalable dust, mist and vapour of the chemical is highly unlikely. Therefore this study is considered for waiver.
Acute Dermal toxicity:
The acute dermal toxicity dose (LD50) was considered based on different studies conducted on rabbits for the given test chemical. The LD50 value is 5000 mg/kg bw. The study concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw, for acute dermal toxicity. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute dermal toxicity.

Additional information
Acute oral toxicity:
In different studies, the given test chemical has been investigated for acute oral toxicity to a greater or lesser extent. Often are the studies based on in-vivo experiments in rodents, i.e. most commonly in rats for the given test chemical. The studies are summarized as below –
The reported study was mentioned in publication and authoritative database and conducted to determine acute oral toxicity dose by using the given test chemical on rats at the dose concentration of 5000 mg/kg bw given by oral route. Animals were observed for mortality. No mortality was observed at 5000 mg/kg bw in treated animals. Hence, the acute oral LD50 value was considered to be > 5000 mg/Kg bw, when rats were treated with the given test chemical orally.
The above study is supported with another study mentioned in publication for the given test chemical. The acute oral toxicity study was conducted on rats at the dose concentration of 5000 mg/kg bw given by oral route. Animals were observed for mortality. No mortality was observed at 5000 mg/kg bw in treated animals. Hence, the acute oral LD50 value was considered to be > 5000 mg/Kg bw, when rats were treated with the given test chemical orally.
These studies are supported with the data mentioned in peer - reviewed journal for the given test chemical. The acute oral toxicity study was conducted in rats at the dose concentration of 3540-4960 mg/kg bw. Animals were observed for mortality. 50% mortality was observed at 4250 mg/kg bw in treated animals. Hence, the acute oral LD50 value was considered to be 4250 mg/kg with confidential limit of 3540 - 4960 mg/kg bw, when rat was treated with the given test chemical orally.
All the above studies are further supported with the data available in publication for the given test chemical. The acute oral toxicity study was conducted in rats at the dose concentration of 5000 mg/kg bw. Animals were observed for mortality. No mortality was observed at 5000 mg/kg bw in treated animals. Hence, the acute oral LD50 value was considered to be >5000 mg/kg bw, when rat was treated with the given test chemical orally.
Thus, based on the above summarised studies on test chemical, it can be concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw, for acute oral toxicity. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute oral toxicity.
Acute Inhalation Toxicity:
The acute inhalation toxicity study need not be conducted because exposure to humans via inhalation route is not likely taking into account due to low vapour pressure of the test chemical, which is reported to be 0.097 mmHg.

Hence, the acute dermal LD50 value was considered to be approximately 5000 mg/Kg bw, when rabbits were treated with the given test chemical by dermal application.
The above study is supported with another study mentioned in publication and conducted to determine the acute dermal toxicity profile of the given test chemical in rabbits at the dose concentration of 5000 mg/kg bw. Animals were observed for mortality. No mortality was observed at 5000 mg/kg bw in treated animals. Hence, the acute dermal LD50 value was considered to be >5000 mg/Kg bw, when rabbits were treated with the given test chemical by dermal application.

Thus, based on the above summarised studies on test chemical, it can be concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute dermal toxicity.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the above studies on test chemical, it can be concluded that the LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw, for acute oral and acute dermal toxicity. Thus, comparing these values with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute oral and acute dermal toxicity. For acute inhalation toxicity wavier was added so, not possible to classify.
