Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
No short term repeated dose oral toxicity study with the target substance is available. Data generated with the category substance LABS Na was considered pivotal to this endpoint. The target substance is considered to have a NOAEL of 125 mg/kg bw/day and LOAEL of 250 mg/kg bw/day.
Executive summary:

Male and female rats were exposed to LABS Na via gavage daily for 28 days. Body weight gain was suppressed, some serum biochemical measures were different from the controls, and some organ weights were either decreased (spleen, heart, thymus) or increased (liver) in either the male or female high dose groups. No mortalities or histopathological abnormalities were observed. The resultant LOAEL and NOAEL values were 250 and 125 mg/kg bw/day, respectively.
