Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The single oral administration of the test substance (ZK 47359) to male and female rats at a dose of 2000 mg/kg was tolerated without any mortality.

No compound-related clinical signs were observed in males, in females only very slight and transient signs of impaired general condition were observed on the day of administration. There were no macroscopic pathological signs. The acute oral toxicity of Hydroxyestradienon in rats is therefore above 2000 mg/kg body weight.

The single dermal administration of the test substance (ZK 47359) to male and female rats at a dose of 2000 mg/kg was tolerated without any mortality. One female showed thinning fur on both hind limbs and the abdomen in the last week of the study. No compound-related findings were observed in the other animals with regard to local and clinical observation, determination of body weight and necropsy examination.

The acute dermal toxicity of Hydroxyestradienon in rats is therefore above 2000 mg/kg body weight.

No local intolerance reactions at the application sites were observed.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the study results a classification according to Directive 67/548/EEC and Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) is not required.
