Description of key information

In a reliable acute toxicity study the substance was administered to Wistar rats (10 animals/dose) by oral gavage at a dose level of 5000 mg/kg bw (single administration). There were no mortalities or signs of clinical toxicity during the 14 day observation period.The oral LD50 is >5000 mg/kg bw.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Acute toxicity: via oral route
