In an acute oral toxicity study, 3 groups of Charles River CD® Strain rats (2/sex/dose) were administered a single oral dose of test material at 900, 3038 and 6834 mg/kg bw by gavage. Animals were then observed for mortality, clinical signs and bodyweights for 14 days and at the end of the study the surviving animals were sacrificed for macroscopic examination.
No mortality was observed. Hypoactivity was observed in animals within 15 minutes of dosing at 3038 mg/kg bw, and all animals were recovered after 6-22 h. Hypoactivity, muscular weakness, laboured breathing, lacrimation, diuresis and prostration were observed at 6834 mg/kg bw and animals recovered from clinical signs within 5 days after dosing. All animals showed expected gains in bodyweight over the 14-day study period. No abnormalities were noted at necropsy except enlarged uterine horn in one female at 3038 mg/kg bw dose.
Oral LD50 Combined > 6834 mg/kg bw
Under the test conditions, the test material is not classified according to the annex VI of the Regulation EC No. 1272/2008 (CLP).
This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for acute oral toxicity endpoint.

- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Value:
- 6 834 mg/kg bw
- Quality of whole database:
- The key study performed on the registered substance in rats was pre-guideline and pre-GLP, but was similar to OECD Test guideline No 401. This study was considered sufficiently robust to cover this endpoint.

- no adverse effect observed
Acute toxicity: via dermal route
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Value:
- 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Quality of whole database:
- The study on the registered substance was not sufficiently robust. Therefore a weight-of evidence using data on a supporting substance was followed to cover this endpoint.
Additional information
Acute toxicity: oral
A key study was identified (Bio-Test, 1978, rel.2). This study was non-GLP, but was similar to OECD Test guideline No 401 except that 2 animals/sex/dose were used instead of 5 animals of the same sex/dose. This deviation is not considered to have affected the reliability of the study. Groups of rats (2/sex/dose) were administered a single oral dose of test material at 900, 3038 and 6834 mg/kg bw. Animals were then observed for mortality and clinical signs for 14 days.
No mortality was observed. Hypoactivity was observed in animals within 15 minutes of dosing at 3038 mg/kg bw, and all animals were recovered after 6-22 h. Hypoactivity, muscular weakness, laboured breathing, lacrimation, diuresis and prostration were observed at 6834 mg/kg bw and animals recovered from clinical signs within 5 days after dosing. All animals showed expected gains in bodyweight over the 14 day study period. No abnormalities were noted at necropsy except enlarged uterine horn in one female at 3038 mg/kg bw dose.
Rat Combined Oral LD50 = 6834 mg/kg bw.
Acute toxicity: dermal
A study was identified on the registered substance (Bio-Test, 1979, rel. 4). In this acute dermal toxicity study (limit test), a group of New Zealand Albino rabbits (2/sex) were given a single dermal application of test material at 2025 mg/kg bw. The test material was applied topically to the clipped skin area with intact skin (1/ sex) and abraded skin (1/sex) of the animals and covered with occlusive binding for 24 h.
No mortality or clinical signs were observed.
Skin reactions observed at 24 h were beet red erythema, severe oedema and second degree burns. Escharosis was observed at the test skin sites at Day 7 and 14. It has to be highlighted that half of the animals had abraded skin and individual results were not reported in the study report to confirm whether abraded and/or non-abraded skin were concerned.
All animals showed expected gains in bodyweight over the 14-day study period. Necropsy examinations revealed moderate desquamation and superficial escharosis at the test skin sites. No other gross pathologic alterations were observed.
Dermal LD50 Combined > 2025 mg/kg bw.
In this study, only 2 animals/sex were used instead of 5 animals/sex as required by the OECD guideline No. 402. Therefore, a weight-of evidence approach using data from a supporting substance, 2-Pentylcyclopentan-1-one, was used to conclude on acute dermal toxicity of the registered substance (see IUCLID section 13 for read-across justification).
The study on the supporting substance, 2-Pentylcyclopentan-1-one, (Biosearch, 1979, rel.2) was performed similarly to the OECD guideline No. 402. The abraded skin of albino rabbits (3/sex) was occlusively exposed to undiluted test material for 24 h at dose of 2000 mg/kg bw.
No mortality or clinical signs were observed.
No abnormalities were noted at necropsy. Dermal LD50 Combined > 2000 mg/kg bw.
Taken together, these data confirm the absence of dermal toxicity of the test substance. The LD50 is considered to be > 2000 mg/kg bw.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
Only one study available
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – inhalation endpoint
In accordance with Column 2 of REACH Annex VIII, in addition to the oral route (8.5.1), for substances other than gases, the information mentioned under 8.5.2 (acute toxicity by inhalation) and 8.5.3 (acute toxicity by the dermal route) shall be provided for at least one other route. The choice for the second route will depend on the nature of the substance and the likely route of human exposure
In the present case, inhalation exposure will be lower than dermal exposure because the registered substance has a low vapour pressure (9.2 Pa at 25°C) and a low freezing point (< -20°C), so the potential for the generation of inhalable forms is low. Dermal exposure is the more likely route of exposure based on physico-chemical properties (Log Kow = 4.7 at 20°C, WS = 18.9 mg/L at 20°C).
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint
No study was selected since a weight-of-evidence approach was followed.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Harmonized classification:
The substance has no harmonized classification according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
Self-classification:
Acute toxicity via Oral route:
Based on the available data, the substance is not classified according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 as the LD50 is greater than 2000 mg/kg bw.
Acute toxicity via Dermal route:
Based on the available data, the substance is not classified according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 as the LD50 is greater than 2000 mg/kg bw.
Acute toxicity (Inhalation):
No data was available.
Specific target organ toxicity: single exposure (Oral):
The classification criteria according to the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 as specific target organ toxicant (STOT) – single exposure, oral are not met since no reversible or irreversible adverse health effects were observed immediately or delayed after exposure and no effects were observed at the guidance value (oral) for a Category 1 classification (C≤ 300 mg/kg bw) and at the guidance value (oral) for a Category 2 classification (2000 mg/kg bw≥C > 300 mg/kg bw). No classification is required.
The criteria for Transient Organ effects (STOT-SE Category 3) according to Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 are not met since narcotic effects were not observed in the acute oral toxicity study.
Specific target organ toxicity: single exposure (Dermal):
The classification criteria according to the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 as specific target organ toxicant (STOT) – single exposure, dermal are not met since no reversible or irreversible adverse health effects were observed immediately or delayed after exposure and no effects were observed at the guidance value (dermal) for a Category 1 classification (C≤ 1000 mg/kg bw) and at the guidance value (dermal) for a Category 2 classification (2000 mg/kg bw≥C > 1000 mg/kg bw). No classification is required.
The criteria for Transient Organ effects (STOT-SE Category 3) according to Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 are not met since narcotic effects were not observed in the acute dermal toxicity study.
Specific target organ toxicity: single exposure (Inhalation):
No data was available. However, the registered substance is not a skin or an eye irritant, therefore respiratory tract irritation is not expected.
