Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
In these experimental conditions the test material Cosmacol ECI did not provoke toxic effects. The LD 50 was greater than 5000 mg/kg body weight.
Executive summary:

An acute oral toxicity test was carried out on a group of 10 rats (5 male and 5 female) using Cosmacol ECI. The test material was administered at a dose of 5000 mg/kg oral by gavage. During the study the animals were observed daily for 14 days (5 out of 7) for signs of possible toxic symptoms and mortality. Body weight was noted weekly. At the end of the study necropsy was performed on all animals.

None of the animals died during the course of the study, no clincial symptoms were observed that could be related to treatment, the body weight gain was normal for the species and strain. At necropsy the animals showed no pathological symptoms or abnormalities ante- and post-mortem.

The test material Cosmacol ECI did not provoke toxic effects under the experimental conditions described and the LD50 was judged to be greater than 5000 mg/kg b.w.
