Results and discussion

Effect levels

Key result

Sex:

male/female

Dose descriptor:

LD50

Effect level:

> 10 000 mg/kg bw

Remarks on result:

other: no animals died within the observation period

Any other information on results incl. tables

- within 2 hours after treatment, all treated animals showed dyspnoea, exophthalmus, curved position and ruffled fur

- in the higher dose (10 g/kg bw) these symptoms became more accentuated

- all animals recovered within 3 to 6 days

- animals were sacrificed at day 7, but no substance related gross organ changes were seen

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

not classified

Remarks:

Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: CLP regulation

Conclusions:

Single application of different dose levels ( up to 10 g/kg bw) of the test substance did not cause lethality in male and female Tif. RAI rats during the 7 day observation period, resulting in a LD50 > 10000 mg/kg bw.

Executive summary:

Male and female Tif. RAI rats were subjected to test acute oral toxicity. The test substance was administered by gavage at dose levels up to the highest applicable dose of 10000 mg/kg bw. No animal died under these conditions, thus leading to a LD50 > 10000 mg/kg bw. No substance related gross organ changes were seen at necropsy.

Classification for acute oral toxicity is not necessary according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
