Description of key information
Oral:
The acute oral LD50 of TK 10708 in rats of both sexes observed over 14 days is 2071 mg/kg in a study conducted using a method which is considered similar to that in OECD Guideline 401. The test material is considered to be slightly toxic to the rat by this route of administration.
Dermal:
The acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the Wistar strain rat observed over 14 days was determined to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bodyweight (in an GLP study conducted to OECD 402). Irritation was observed, and one female animal exhibited some symptoms of toxicity, however the test material did not meet the criteria for classification as acutely toxic via the dermal route.
Inhalation:
A waiver has been submitted to address the acute toxicity: inhalation endpoint on the basis of lack of exposure
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Acute toxicity: via oral route
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed

- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): lighting was controlled by a time switch to give twelve hours continuous light (06:00 to 18:00) and twelve hours darkness. - Type of coverage:
- semiocclusive
- Vehicle:
- arachis oil
- Details on dermal exposure:
- TEST SITE
- % coverage: approximately 10% of the total body surface area
- Type of wrap if used: A piece of surgical gauze was placed over the treatment area and semi-occluded with a piece of self adhesive bandage.
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): After the 24-hour contact period the bandage was carefully removed and the treated skin and surrounding hair wiped with cotton wool moistened with arachis oil BP to remove any residual test material.
- Time after start of exposure: 24 hours - Duration of exposure:
- 24 hours
- Doses:
- Using available information on the toxicity of the test material, a group of five male and five female rats was treated with the test material at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg.
- No. of animals per sex per dose:

- Control animals:
- not specified
- Details on study design:
- - Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: The animals were observed for deaths or overt signs of toxicity ½, 1, 2 and 4 hours after dosing and subsequently once daily for fourteen days. Individual bodyweights were recorded prior to application of the test material on Day 0 and on Days 7 and 14.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes
- Other examinations performed: At the end of the study the animals were killed by cervical dislocation. All animals were subjected to gross necropsy. This consisted of an external examination and opening of the abdominal and thoracic cavities. The appearance of any macroscopic abnormalities was recorded. No tissues were retained. - Statistics:
- Data evaluations included the relationship, if any, between the exposure of the animal to the test material and the incidence and severity of all abnormalities including behavioural and clinical observations, gross lesions, bodyweight changes, mortality and any other toxicological effects.
Using the mortality data obtained, an estimate of the acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material was made. - Sex:
- male/female
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Effect level:
- > 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Mortality:
- There were no deaths.
- Clinical signs:
- other: There were no signs of systemic toxicity.
- Gross pathology:
- No abnormalities were noted at necropsy.
- Other findings:
- Well-defined erythema and very slight oedema were noted at the test sites of all animals. Other dermal reactions noted were haemorrhage of dermal capillaries, loss of skin elasticity and flexibility, small superficial scattered scabs, hardened light brown coloured scab, scab lifting to reveal glossy skin, scab undulating, scab cracking and glossy skin. Adverse dermal reactions prevented accurate evaluation of erythema and oedema at the test sites of all animals during the study.
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- The acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the Wistar strain rat was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bodyweight.
- Executive summary:
The study was performed to assess the acute dermal toxicity of the test material in the Wistar strain rat. The method was designed to meet the requirements of the following:
¿ OECD Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals No. 402 “Acute Dermal Toxicity” (adopted 24 February 1987)
¿ Method B3 Acute Toxicity (Dermal) of Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008
A group of ten animals (five males and five females) was given a single, 24 hour, semi occluded dermal application of the test material to intact skin at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bodyweight. Clinical signs and bodyweight development were monitored during the study. All animals were subjected to gross necropsy.
There were no deaths or signs of systemic toxicity.
Well-defined erythema and very slight oedema were noted at the test sites of all animals. Other dermal reactions noted were haemorrhage of dermal capillaries, loss of skin elasticity and flexibility, small superficial scattered scabs, hardened light brown coloured scab, scab lifting to reveal glossy skin, scab undulating, scab cracking and glossy skin.
All males showed expected gains in bodyweight over the study period. Bodyweight loss was noted in all females during the first week with expected gain in bodyweight during the second week.
No abnormalities were noted at necropsy.
The acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the Wistar strain rat was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bodyweight.

Sarasin (1981) and Schafer and Bowles (1985) have been allocated a Klimisch score of 2; the other three references are secondary literature and have been allocated a Klimisch score of 4. Sarasin is a study report, whereas Schafer and Bowles is a scientific paper, and so Sarasin, 1981 has been allocated as the key study.
A waiver has been submitted to address the acute toxicity: inhalation endpoint on the basis of lack of exposure.
Acute toxicity via the dermal route was addressed with the study Sanders A (2010). The study was conducted in accordance with the OECD guideline 402 (also EU Method B.3). The study was performed in compliance with GLP. The study was assigned a reliability score of 1 and considered adequate for assessment as a stand alone study. The study was designated as the key study for the acute toxicity endpoint via the dermal route.
Justification for classification or non-classification
In accordance with the directive 67/548/EEC and the regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, the substance does not meet the criteria for classification as acutely toxic based on read across to structurally similar substances.
