Description of key information

An acute oral toxicity study (Simon, 2008) is available which is key study. This study resulted a LD50 value of greater than 2000 mg/kg bw/day.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Acute toxicity: via oral route

Additional information

An acute oral toxicity study was conducted according to OECD 423 using rats (Simon, 2008). Key study.

The median lethal dose of the test substance after single oral administration to female rats, observed over a period of 14 days is: LD50 (female rat): greater than 2000 mg/kg body weight.


Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
This study was conducted according to OECD 423 under GLP.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Oral LD50 = >2,000 mg/kg (actual value >2,000 mg/kg)

Therefore in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 Table 3.1.1 the substance is not classified for the acute toxicity endpoint.
