It was confirmed that the test substance in the administered sample was uniform and stable, and that the administered sample used in this test contained a predetermined amount of the test substance.
- Species:

- Strain:
- Sprague-Dawley
- Sex:
- male/female
- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Charles River, Japan
- Age at study initiation: 4 weeks
- Weight at study initiation: female: ~90 g; male: ~100 g
- Fasting period before study: 18 hours
- Housing: metal wire floor cage
- Diet (ad libitum): solid food (CE-2, Clea Japan)

- Humidity (%): 54 - 68
- Air changes (per hr): 15
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12 / 12 - Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- corn oil
- Details on oral exposure:
- VEHICLE
- Concentration in vehicle: Samples were prepared and administered in suspension
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): 20 % (w/v)
- Justification for choice of vehicle: test substance is insoluble in water
MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED: 10 mL/kg bw
The dose was calculated based on the body weight measured immediately before administration, and forced using a rat gastric tube. - Doses:
- 2000 mg/kg bw (based on results of preliminary study)
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 5
- Control animals:
- yes
- Details on study design:
- - Duration of observation period following administration: 15 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: observations: once daily and weighing: on days 0, 2, 4, 8, 11 and 15
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes - Preliminary study:
- In a preliminary test, three concentrations (20, 200, 2000 mg/kg bw) were tested in male rats and the effect was observed for 8 days. Soft feces excretion was observed but no death.
- Key result
- Sex:
- male/female
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Effect level:
- > 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Mortality:
- No deaths occurred of either males or females in the treated groups.
- Clinical signs:
- other: No effects on general condition were found.
- Gross pathology:
- Nothing abnormal was detected in gross pathology.
- Other findings:
- As a change in general condition, excretion of loose stool was observed in 4 males and 4 females in the 2000 mg / kg group from 30 minutes to 6 hours after administration. However, in the solvent control group to which corn oil was administered, similar changes were observed in all males and 4 females within the same time period. Therefore, it was judged that this change was due to solvent ingestion and did not suggest the toxicity of the test substance.
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met

Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Value:
- > 2 000 mg/kg bw
Acute toxicity: via inhalation route
Link to relevant study records
- Endpoint:
- acute toxicity: inhalation
- Data waiving:
- exposure considerations
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because exposure of humans via inhalation is not likely taking into account the vapour pressure of the substance and/or the possibility of exposure to aerosols, particles or droplets of an inhalable size
- Justification for type of information:
- The substance is a solid with low risk of dust formation. Thus the oral and dermal routes are considered to be the most likely routes of exposure.

- Gross pathology:
- Necropsy of all surviving animals revealed no macroscopic abnormalities. One animal received for necropsy on day 7 showed severe consolidation of the lungs.

Erythema, ranging from slight to moderate in degree, was noted on removal of the adhesive dressing. The erythema was maintained and became severe in degree in one female animal 7 days after treatment. Four animals showed slight and moderate desquamation.
Slight oedema and eschar formation were also noted in some animals during the first week of observation.- Interpretation of results:
