not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: EC Regulation 1272/2008
Conclusions:
According to the EC Regulation 1272/2008 and subsequent regulationson classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures, trans-N1,N1,N4,N4-Tetrakis(2-hydroxyethyl)1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxamide is n o n - t o x i c if swallowed.
Executive summary:

The test item is given to female rats by oral administration to obtain information on the toxicity, in particular, lethality of a test item

Under the present test conditions, a single oral administration of 2000 mg trans-N1,N1,N4,N4-Tetrakis(2-hydroxyethyl)1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxamide/kg b.w. to female rats did not reveal any signs of toxicity. No animal died prematurely. All animals gained the expected body weight.

No pathological changes were observed at necropsy.

Therefore, trans-N1,N1,N4,N4-Tetrakis(2-hydroxyethyl)1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxamide is n o n - t o x i c if swallowed.
