Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- acute toxicity: oral
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 1988.02.24-1988.03.09
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: The study was conducted according to internationally accepted test guidelines, and was considered to be reliable, adequate and relevant. The limit dose was reached for the active ingredient.
- Justification for type of information:
- No data are available for the registered substance, however data are available for the corresponding sodium salt of the substance, docusate sodium (CAS 577-11-7). These data are used for read-across to the registered substance calcium docusate (CAS 128 -49 -4). The presence of either of the counterions sodium or calcium is not considered to have an impact on the toxicity. It is therefore considered justified to use the data of the sodium salt for read across to the calcium salt of docusate.

Materials and methods
Test guideline
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 401 (Acute Oral Toxicity)
- Deviations:
- yes
- Remarks:
- dose is higher
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The limit dose is 3000 mg/kg bw. instead of 2000 mg/kg bw. Taking into account the purity (70% sodium diisooctylsulfosuccinate), 2100 mg active ingredient/kg was given, which corresponds to the limit dose.
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Test type:
- standard acute method
- Limit test:
- yes

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- The LD50 of MARLINAT DF 8 was > 3000mg/kg body weight, corresponding with >2100 mg active ingredient/kg body weight.
- Executive summary:
No data concerning acute oral toxicity properties are available for the registered substance, however data are available for the corresponding sodium salt of the substance, docusate sodium (CAS 577-11-7). These data are used for read-across to the registered substance calcium docusate (CAS 128 -49 -4). The presence of either of the counterions sodium or calcium is not considered to have an impact on the toxicity. It is therefore considered justified to use the data of the sodium salt for read across to the calcium salt of docusate.
Acute toxicity testing in 5 male and 5 female rats showed that the LD50 of MARLINAT DF 8 was > 3000mg/kg body weight, corresponding with >2100 mg active ingredient/kg body weight. The body weight evolution was not influenced during the 14-day observation period. All animals showed red brown lips and a slightly harsh skin 20-30 minutes after administration; one animal showed diarrhea 3-7 hours after administration. After 24 hours the skin was very harsh and the animals showed a squatting attitude; 4 animals showed diarrhea and 3 had a dirtily brown skin. After 48 hours , the skin was still slightly harsh and after 72 hours all animals were without poisoning symptoms. Dissection at the end of testing showed only in 1 animal with a partial bulge of the stomach mucosa. All treated animals were free from poisoning symptoms after 72 hours.
