- Sex:
- female
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Effect level:
- > 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Mortality:
- At 2000 mg/kg, two females were found dead on Day 2 post-treatment. No further mortality occurred.
- Clinical signs:
- other: At 300 mg/kg, two animals showed erect fur on Day 1. No clinical signs were noted for the other animal. At 2000 mg/kg, labored or shallow breathing was noted for the animals between Days 1 and 3. One animal showed abnormal breathing sounds on Days 1-3, 6
- Gross pathology:
- An abnormality of the stomach (irregular glandular surface) was found in one of the animals that died during the study, at macroscopic post mortem examination. Macroscopic post mortem examination of the other animal that died during the study and of the surviving animals at termination did not reveal any abnormalities.
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 5 based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The oral LD50 value of Neodymium Trinitrate in Wistar Han rats was >2000 mg/kg body weight.
According to the OECD 423 test guideline, the LD50 cut-off value was considered to be 2500 mg/kg body weight.
Based on these results, according to the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) of the United Nations (2017), Neodymium Trinitrate should be classified as: Category 5 for acute toxicity by the oral route and according to the Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of items and mixtures (including all amendments), Neodymium Trinitrate does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for oral toxicity. - Executive summary:
The objective of this study was to assess the toxicity of the test item when administered in a single dose to female rats at one or more defined dosages. Furthermore, the results of the study allowed the test item to be ranked according to most classification systems, currently in use. This study should provide a rational basis for risk assessment in man.
The study was carried out in compliance with the guidelines described in OECD No.423 (2001) "Acute Oral Toxicity, Acute Toxic Class Method"; EC No 440/2008, part B: "Acute Oral Toxicity, Acute Toxic Class Method"; EPA, OPPTS 870.1100 (2002), "Acute Oral Toxicity"; JMAFF Guidelines (2000), including the most recent revisions.
Initially, Neodymium Trinitrate was administered by oral gavage to three female Wistar Han rats at 300 mg/kg body weight. In a stepwise procedure two additional groups of three females were dosed at 2000 mg/kg body weight. All animals were subjected to daily observations and weekly determination of body weight. Macroscopic examination was performed on the day of death or after terminal sacrifice (Day 15). At 2000 mg/kg, two females were found dead on Day 2 post-treatment. No further mortality occurred. At 300 mg/kg, two animals showed erected fur on Day 1. No clinical signs were noted for the other animal. At 2000 mg/kg, labored or shallow breathing was noted for the animals between Days 1 and 3. One animal showed abnormal breathing sounds on Days 1-3, 6 and 7. Closed eyes (partly or completely) and uncoordinated movements (slight or moderate) were noted for all animals on Day 1. Hunched posture and erected fur was observed in all animals between Days 1 and 4. Furthermore, all animals showed decreased activity between Days 1 and 3.
The body weight gain shown by the surviving animals over the study period was considered to be similar to that expected for normal untreated animals of the same age and strain.
An abnormality of the stomach (irregular glandular surface) was found in one of the animals that died during the study, at macroscopic post mortem examination. Macroscopic post mortem examination of the other animal that died during the study and of the surviving animals at termination did not reveal any abnormalities.
The oral LD50value of Neodymium Trinitrate in Wistar Han rats was established to exceed 2000 mg/kg body weight.
According to the OECD 423 test guideline, the LD50 cut-off value was considered to be 2500 mg/kg body weight.
Based on these results, according to the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) of the United Nations (2017), Neodymium Trinitrate should be classified as: may be harmful if swallowed (Category 5) for acute toxicity by the oral route and according to the Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of items and mixtures (including all amendments), Neodymium Trinitrate does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for oral toxicity.
