Description of key information
An acute oral toxicity study was conducted with 5 female Crl:WI rats according to the OECD Guideline 425. Under the conditions of this study, the estimated acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test item was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in female Crl:WI rats.
An acute dermal toxicity study was performed according to OECD Guideline 402. The median lethal dose (LD50) of the test substance after a single dermal administration was greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in male and female CRL:(WI) rats.

- Executive summary:
An acute oral toxicity (up and down procedure) study was conducted with 5 female Crl:WI rats according to the OECD guideline 425.
Animals were treated with a single oral (gavage) dose of the test substance at dose levels of 175, 550 or 2000 mg/kg body weight (bw) followed by a 14-day observation period. The animals were fasted overnight prior to treatment and food was returned 3 hours after dosing. Animals were observed individually after dosing at 30 minutes, then 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 hours post treatment and once each day for 14 days thereafter. Body weight was measured on Day -1, just before dosing and weekly thereafter. All animals were examined macroscopically at the end of the observation period.
There was no mortality during the study. At dose level 175 mg/kg bw, hunched back was observed only on the day of treatment in 1/1 animals. At dose level 550 mg/kg bw, hunched back and decreased activity were observed only on the day of treatment in 1/1 animals. At dose level 2000 mg/kg bw, hunched back in 3/3 animals, decreased activity in 2/3 animals, incoordination in 1/3 animals and piloerection in 1/3 animals on the day of treatment.
There were no further clinical signs after Day 0 at any dose level. There were no treatment related effects on body weight or body weight gain. Body weights were within the range commonly recorded for this strain and age. At necropsy, there were no observations to be reported at a dose level of 175, 550 or 2000 mg/kg bw.
Under the conditions of this study, the estimated acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test item was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in female Crl:WI rats.

Test item was administered as supplied without dilution. The application period was 24 hours, followed by a 14-day observation period. Clinical observations along with a check of viability and mortality were performed on all animals at 1 and 5 hours after dosing and daily for 14 days thereafter. Body weight was measured prior to dosing on Day 0 and on Days 7 and 14. All animals were euthanized and subjected to a gross macroscopic examination at the end of the 2 weeks observation period.
No mortality occurred during the study. No adverse clinical signs or any type of local effect was observed after treatment with the test item or during the 14 day observation period. There were no treatment related changes in body weight. The body weights were within the range commonly recorded for this strain and age. No macroscopic changes were seen.
