Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 5 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The LD50 was considered to be 2647 mg/kg bw, when rats were treated with Chroman-4-one (CAS no: 491-37-2) via oral route.
Executive summary:

The acute oral toxicity of Chroman-4-one (CAS no: 491-37-2) was tested inrats at the dose concentration of 2647 mg/kg bw. Animals were observed for clinical signs. 50% mortality was observed at 2647 mg/kg with clinical signs such as, ataxia, hyper motility in GIT, diarrhoea and Chromodacyrorrea. Therefore, LD50 was considered to be 2647 mg/kg bw, when rats were treated with Chroman-4-one via oral route.
