In an acute oral toxicity study according to OECD guideline 423, adopted 22 March 1996, 6 female, fasted, 9 weeks old Wistar strain rats and 3 male, fasted, 10 weeks old Wistar strain rats were given a single oral dose of 4,6-dichlor-5-fluorpyrimidinbe in demineralized water containing 2% Cremophor by gavage at a dose of 2000, 200 (females) and 25 mg/kg bw (males and females) and observed for 14 days.
6/6 animals of the 2000 and 200 mg/kg bw groups died 50 min and 2h after dosing, respectively. Clinical signs shown by the animals found dead included decreased, uncoordinated gait, labored breathing, increased salivation, narrowed palpebral fissures, and temporary tremor,. lateral position, temporary convulsions, reddened skin, increased motility, and tachypnea.
A dose of 25 mg/kg body weight was tolerated by male and female rats without mortalities and clinical signs.
The body weight and the body weight development of males and females were not affected by the treatment.
In animals that died during the observation period the following changes were detected:
Dark-red discoloration of liver
Slightly collapsed lung
Pale discoloration of kidneys
Pale discoloration of spleen
No gross pathologic changes were observed in animals sacrificed at the end of the study period.

- Type of wrap if used: For each dose and animal the required amount of the pure liquid test substance was weighed and applied as uniformly and thinly as possible to the test area, covered with a gauze-layer (6.0 cm x 5.0 cm = 30.0 cm²) of a ,,Cutiplast® steril" coated with air-tight ,,Leukoflex®". The gauze strip was placed on the rat's back and secured in place using ,,Peha®-Haft" cohesive stretch tape (8 cm x 23 cm) and additionally covered with a "Lomir biomedical Inc rat jacket", which was connected with a
safety pin to the stretch tape to ensure that the animals could not ingest the test
substance.
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): After 24 h the dressings were removed and the area was rinsed with tepid water using soap and gently patting the area dry.
- Time after start of exposure: 24 h
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): between 20.5 and 75.0 mg/cm²
- Duration of exposure:
- 24 h
- Doses:
- 160, 400, 1000, 4000 mg/kg bw
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 5
- Control animals:
- not specified
- Details on study design:
- - Duration of observation period following administration: 21 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: Clinical signs and mortality rates were determined several times on the day of application and subsequently at least once daily for an observation period of at least 21 days. The weight gain of the animals was checked weekly until the end of the study.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes
- Other examinations performed: clinical signs, body weight - Statistics:
- The LD50 value was calculated with the aid of a software program according to Spearman, Karber (D.J. Finney; Statistical method in biological assay, 2nd Edition, Griffin, London, 524-530; 1971). The algorithm was taken from L. Sachs (Angewandte Statistik, 6th Edition 1984, pp. 178 ff.). Where calculation of the LD50 using the software program was not possible or meaningful, an assessment was made based on the applied dose and dose-response curve, respectively.

4000 mg/kg bw.:
stomach: fluid, gas-filled.
1000 mg/kg bw.:
stomach: consistency-changes light colored, partly reddening.
400 mg/kg bw.:
stomach: partly reddening, hemorrhagic watery fluid; lung: pale discolorations;
skin: black to blue discolorations of the treatment area, scars on the treatment area.
160 mg/kg bw.:
skin: scars on the treatment area. - Interpretation of results:
- Category 3 based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- Based on the present investigations, HEC 5725-DCF-Pyrimidine is to be regarded to have the following LD50 values:
LD50 rat, male : 365 mg/kg body weight (235-567 mg/kg)
rat, female : 304 mg/kg body weight (212-435 mg/kg)
So it is regarded as low toxic after dermal application. - Executive summary:
In an acute dermal toxicity study according to OECD test guideline 402 (1987), groups of young adult males and female Wistar rats (5/sex) were dermally exposed to 4,6-dichlor-5-fluorpyrimidine (100 % a.i) for 24 hours to 10 % of body surface area at doses of 160, 400, 1000 and 4000 mg/kg bw. Animals then were observed for 21 days.
Dermal LD50 Males =365 mg/kg bw
Females = 304 mg/kg bw
4,6-dichlor-5-fluorpyrimidine is of low Toxicity based on the LD50 value for female Wistar rats. Animals of both high dose groups (1000 and 4000 mg/kg bw) died within 2 days. In all dose groups clinical signs related to treatment were observed corresponding to the findings during necropsy.
Based on the results the substance needs to be classified according to Regulation (EU) 1272/2008 (CLP) and the Globally Harmonized System for Calssification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) as acute toxic via the dermal route Castegory 3 “Toxic in contact to skin”.
