Executive summary:

In a determination of the acute oral toxicity in a limit test of 2,3-Epoxypropyl neodecanoate, oligomeric reaction products with toluene-4-sulfonic acid

5 male and 5 female rats received a single oral dose by gavage of 10000 mg/kg body weight. After 1-2 hours some animals had ruffled fur and one animal diuresis, after 4 hours ruffled fur was observed in 9 animals and diuresis in 10 animals, and later some of them showed staggering gait, slight ataxia and sedation, diarrhoe and a squatting position.While after 24 hours diuresis was still observed in 9 animals, all of them were free from the symptoms of poisoning after 48 hours. The increase of body weight was unaffected by the treatment. Dissection at the end of the experiment revealed hyperaemia of the gastric mucosa in 5 animals and additionally in one animal partial hyperaemia of the small intestinal mucosa

Under the conditions of this study, the acute toxicity of 2,3-Epoxypropyl neodecanoate, oligomeric reaction products with toluene-4-sulfonic acid in male and female rats is greater than 10000 mg/kg body weight.
