Interpretation of results:
not classified
Conclusions:
The method used is not intended to allow for the calculation of a precise LD50 value. However, for this acute oral toxicity study with the test item SIKA Härter MTJ (SIKA Hardener MTJ) in rats the determined LD50 is greater than 2000 mg/kg bw (LD50 ≥ 2000 mg/kg bw).
Executive summary:
In this acute oral toxicity study, two groups of female rats (Crl(WI)Br) were given a single oral dose of the test item SIKA Hardener MTJ at a concentration of 2000 mg/kg bw. The starting dose was selected on the basis of the available information about the test item. The acute toxic class method was carried out involving a stepwise procedure with the use of 2000 mg/kg bw as the starting dose in three female rats. No animal died in the first step at 2000 mg/kg bw dose level. Therefore, treatment with 2000 mg/kg bw was repeated on further three female rats. Since only one animal died in the second step, no further testing was required. Animals were weighed, observed for lethality and toxic symptoms for 14 days after the treatment. Gross pathological examination was carried out on the treatment day in died animal and on the 15th day after the treatment in survivor animals. Lethality, Clinical symptoms and Body weight: One of six animals treated with 2000 mg/kg bw SIKA Hardener MTJ died on the treatment day 2 hours after the treatment. In the first step, CNS - and emotion symptoms (decreased activity, vocalisation), decreased muscular tension (body-, abdominal-, grip- and limb tone, skin turgor) and disturbances of the autonomic functions (dyspnoea, piloerection, blood around the nose) and coordination (abnormal gait, ventral position) were observed in animals between treatment day and Day 1. In the second step, CNS - and emotion symptoms (decreased activity, tremor, closed eyes) and disturbance of the coordination (ventral position) were observed in animals on the treatment day between 30 min and 1 hour after the treatment. The body weight development was normal in all animals. Gross pathology: Altogether 1 animal died, and 5 animals were sacrificed as scheduled during the study. All organs of the animals treated with 2000 mg/kg bw dose proved to be free of treatment related gross pathological changes. The method used is not intended to allow for the calculation of a precise LD50 value. However, for this acute oral toxicity study with the test item SIKA Hardener MTJ in rats the determined LD50 is greater than 2000 mg/kg bw (LD50 ≥ 2000 mg/kg bw).

Acute toxicity


Oral


In an acute oral toxicity study, two groups of female rats (Crl(WI)Br) were given a single oral dose of the test item SIKA Hardener MTJ at a concentration of 2000 mg/kg bw. The starting dose was selected on the basis of the available information about the test item. The acute toxic class method was carried out involving a stepwise procedure with the use of 2000 mg/kg bw as the starting dose in three female rats. No animal died in the first step at 2000 mg/kg bw dose level. Therefore, treatment with 2000 mg/kg bw was repeated on further three female rats. Since only one animal died in the second step, no further testing was required. Animals were weighed, observed for lethality and toxic symptoms for 14 days after the treatment. Gross pathological examination was carried out on the treatment day in died animal and on the 15th day after the treatment in survivor animals.


Lethality, Clinical symptoms and Body weight:


One of six animals treated with 2000 mg/kg bw SIKA Hardener MTJ died on the treatment day 2 hours after the treatment. In the first step, CNS - and emotion symptoms (decreased activity, vocalisation), decreased muscular tension (body-, abdominal-, grip- and limb tone, skin turgor) and disturbances of the autonomic functions (dyspnoea, piloerection, blood around the nose) and coordination (abnormal gait, ventral position) were observed in animals between treatment day and Day 1. In the second step, CNS - and emotion symptoms (decreased activity, tremor, closed eyes) and disturbance of the coordination (ventral position) were observed in animals on the treatment day between 30 min and 1 hour after the treatment. The body weight development was normal in all animals.


Gross pathology:


Altogether 1 animal died, and 5 animals were sacrificed as scheduled during the study. All organs of the animals treated with 2000 mg/kg bw dose proved to be free of treatment related gross pathological changes.


The method used is not intended to allow for the calculation of a precise LD50 value. However, for this acute oral toxicity study with the test item SIKA Hardener MTJ in rats the determined LD50 is greater than 2000 mg/kg bw (LD50 ≥ 2000 mg/kg bw).


 


Dermal


An acute dermal toxicity study was performed with the test item in rats, in compliance with OECD Guideline No. 402 and OPPTS 870.1200. A limit test was carried out. A single group of male and female animals (n=5 animals/sex) was exposed to the test item at 2000 mg/kg bw by dermal route. The test item was applied in undiluted form and left in contact with the skin for 24 hours, followed by a 14-day observation period. The results of the study were summarised as follows: No mortality occurred after the 24-hour dermal exposure to the test item in male and female rats during the study. Neither male nor female animals treated with 2000 mg/kg bw of the test item showed behavioural changes and no systemic toxic signs were noted during the study. The test item caused dermal irritation symptoms as slight erythema in both sexes, between Day 1 and Day 6. Other dermal irritation symptom as wound, small wounds and crust was recorded in both sexes between Day 5 and Day 14. Mean body weight development was within the normal range for male animals of this strain and age. Slight body weight loss was observed in three females on first week. It could not be evaluated as a toxic effect of test item. No macroscopic alterations of organs and tissues referred to the systemic toxic effect of the test item were seen during the necropsy. In this acute dermal toxicity study with the test item, the obtained acute dermal LD50 value was greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in male and female rats. On the other hand, it is to be noted that the test item caused dermal irritation response on the site of administration.
