Dose Formulation
Dose levels are in terms of the test item as supplied by the sponsor.
The dose formulations were made shortly before each dosing occasion using a magnetic stirrer, a spatula and an Ultra-Turrax (Janke & Kunkel, D-79219 Staufen) as homogenizers.
The test item was first reduced into a fine powder using a mortar and a pestle. Thereafter, the test item was weighed into a tared glass beaker on a suitable precision balance and the vehicle was added (weight:volume).
Homogeneity of the test item in the vehicle was maintained during administration using a magnetic stirrer.
Treatment
The animals received a single dose of the test item by oral gavage administration at 2000 mg/kg body weight after being fasted for approximately 18 hours (access to water was permitted). Food was provided again approximately 3 hours after dosing.
The dosing volume was 10 mL/kg body weight.
Rationale: Oral administration was considered to be an appropriate application method as it is a possible route of human exposure during manufacture, handling and use of the test item. - Doses:

The purpose of this study was to assess the acute toxicity of the test substance when administered by a single oral gavage to rats, followed by an observation period of 14 days.
Two groups, each of three female HanRcc:WIST (SPF) rats, were treated with the test item by oral gavage administration at a dosage of 2000 mg/kg body weight. The
test item was diluted in vehicle (corn oil) at a concentration of 0.2 g/mL and administered at a dosing volume of 10 mL/kg.
The animals were examined daily during the acclimatization period and mortality, viability and clinical signs were recorded.
All animals were examined for clinical signs within the first 30 minutes and approximately 1, 2, 3 and 5 hours after treatment on day 1 and once daily during test days 2-15. Mortality/viability was recorded at approximately 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3 and 5 hours after administration on test day 1 (with the clinical signs) and twice daily during days 2-15. Body weights were recorded on day 1 (prior to administration) and on days 8 and 15. All animals were necropsied and examined macroscopically.
All animals survived until the end of the study period.
No clinical signs were observed during the course of the study.
The body weight of the animals was within the range commonly recorded for this strain and age.
No macroscopic findings were recorded at necropsy.
The median lethal dose of the test item 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

- Details on dermal exposure:
- One day before treatment, the backs of the animals were clipped with an electric clipper, exposing an area of approximately 10 % of the total body surface.
Only those animals without injury or irritation on the skin were used in the test.
On test day 1, the test item was applied at a dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight evenly on the intact skin with a syringe and covered with a semi-occlusive dressing. The dressing was wrapped around the abdomen and fixed with an elastic adhesive bandage.
- Application volume/kg body weight: 4 mL
Twenty-four hours after the application the dressing was removed and the skin was flushed with lukewarm tap water and dried with disposable paper towels. Thereafter, the reaction sites were assessed.
All animals were re-shaved on test day 8 to facilitate the reading of the local reactions.
Rationale: Dermal administration was used as this is one possible route of human exposure during manufacture, handling and use of the test item.

Additional information
Two differents studies were performed to assess the acute oral toxicity and the acute dermal toxicity of the test item in the Wistar strain rat.
For the acute oral test, two groups, each of three female rats, were treated with the test item by oral gavage administration at a dosage of 2000 mg/kg diluted in corn oil and follwed by an observation period of 14 days.
- No mortality occured during the test, no abnormalities were noted at necropsy and all animals showed expected gains in body weight.
The median lethal dose of the test item 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. (Globally Harminized Classification System-Unclassified).
In the acute dermal test, five males and five females was given a single, 24 hour, dermal application to the intact skin at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg body weight.
- No mortality occured during the test, no abnormalities were noted at necropsy
-No signs of systemic toxicity were noted.
- At removal of the application no local signs of irritation were observed in any animal. However, a yellowish staining produced by the test item was noted in all animals which persisted up to test day 15, the end of observation. A very slight erythema was recorded in one female on test day 8 and persisted up to test day 11. Slight scaling was recorded in all females from test day 8 to test days 13 and 15, respectively. Slight scabs were noted in two females from test day 10 to 13 or 15.
Regarding the body weight, it was within the range commonly recorded for this strain and age.
The acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of the test item in the Wistar strain rat over a period of 14 days was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg body weight.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on these results, the test item does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for acute oral and dermal toxicity according to the:
- Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) of the United Nations (2007),
- Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures.
