Results and discussion

Based on:

Mortality:
All animals in the 630 mg/kg bw dose groups died after treatment. All the females in the 500 mg/kg bw dose group died within 24 hours.Three male and four males died in the 400 and 500 mg/kg dose group. One female and two females died in the 310 and 400 mg/kg dose group.
Clinical signs:
Treated animals for doses from 310 to 630 mg / kg showed reduction of the general condition and sedation.In addition, males from 400 mg / kg, in the case of female animals from 310 mg / kg onwards, occurred in the abdomen.Animals from the low dose showed no signs of toxicity.
Body weight:
No effects on the body weight were noted.
Gross pathology:
All of the experimental animals under test 100 to 500 mg/kg were without any macroscopic abnormal findings.In the deceased male and female animals doses 310 to 630 mg/kg were found stomach and duodenal arrested and looked out oedematoes.
Other findings:
N.A.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 4 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
In conclusion, in an acute oral toxicity study, the LD50 was determined to be 300-400 mg/kg bw for male and for female Wistar rats.
Executive summary:

In an acute oral toxicity study (OECD 401), groups of young adult Wistar rats (5/sex) were given a single oral dose of the test item in water.

The oral LD50 (males) was determined to be between 300-400 mg/kg bw.
