Materials and methods
Test guideline
- Qualifier:
- no guideline followed
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Normal, healthy rats of the Charles River strain, equally divided as to sex and weighing 200 to 300 grams, were used in this study. The animals were fasted for eighteen hours prior to dosing. The test material was fed as received. A rigid stomach tube was employed for the dosing.
Following the administration of the test material the animals were observed for fourteen days for signs of toxicity. Throughout the observation period the animals were housed in raised wire mesh cages in an air conditioned room. They were fed their regular diet of Lab Blox and water ad libitum. - GLP compliance:
- no
- Test type:
- standard acute method
- Limit test:
- yes

Results and discussion
Effect levels
- Key result
- Sex:
- male/female
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Effect level:
- > 5 mL/kg bw
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Remarks on result:
- not determinable due to absence of adverse toxic effects
- Mortality:
- The dosing caused no mortality.
- Clinical signs:
- The dosing caused no adverse effects.
- Body weight:
- The dosing caused no adverse effects.
- Gross pathology:
- not further specified
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 5 based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The LD50 was greater as 5 mL/kg bw.
- Executive summary:
The single oral dosing of rats with 5 mL/kg of the test item caused no mortality or any visible toxic effects. As this dose level did not produce a toxic effect, a complete LD50 study was not performed.
