- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- Female Wistar (RccHan™:WIST) strain rats were supplied by Harlan Laboratories UK Ltd., Oxon, UK. On receipt the animals were randomly allocated to cages. The females were nulliparous and non pregnant. After an acclimatization period of at least five days the animals were selected at random and given a number unique within the study by indelible ink marking on the tail and a number written on a cage card. At the start of the study the animals were eight to twelve weeks of age. The body weight variation did not exceed ±20% of the mean body weight of the initially dosed group.
The animals were housed in groups of three in suspended solid floor polypropylene cages furnished with woodflakes. With the exception of an overnight fast immediately before dosing and for approximately three to four hours after dosing, free access to mains drinking water and food (2014C Teklad Global Rodent diet supplied by Harlan Laboratories UK Ltd., Oxon, UK) was allowed throughout the study. The diet, drinking water and bedding were routinely analyzed and were considered not to contain any contaminants that would reasonably be expected to affect the purpose or integrity of the study.
The temperature and relative humidity were set to achieve limits of 19 to 25 °C and 30 to 70% respectively. The rate of air exchange was at least fifteen changes per hour and the lighting was controlled by a time switch to give twelve hours continuous light (06:00 to 18:00) and twelve hours darkness.
The animals were provided with environmental enrichment items which were considered not to contain any contaminant of a level that might have affected the purpose or integrity of the study.
Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- arachis oil
- Details on oral exposure:
- All animals were dosed once only by gavage, using a metal cannula attached to a graduated syringe.
- Doses:
- 300 mg/kg (with vehicle) and 2000 mg/kg (undiluted)
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 3 animals per dose, 3 dose groups.
- Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- In the absence of data regarding the toxicity of the test item, 300 mg/kg was chosen as the starting dose. For reasons of animal welfare the sequence of dosing did not exactly follow the Test Guideline as provided in Appendix 1.
Groups of fasted animals were treated as follows:
Dose Level (mg/kg) / Concentration (mg/mL) / Specific Gravity / Dose Volume (mL/kg) / Number of Rats (Female)
300 / 30 / not applicable / 10 / 3
2000 / not applicable / 0.991 / 2.02 / 3
2000 / not applicable / 0.991 / 2.02 / 3
All animals were dosed once only by gavage, using a metal cannula attached to a graduated syringe. The volume administered to each animal was calculated according to the fasted body weight at the time of dosing. Treatment of animals was sequential. Sufficient time was allowed between each group to confirm the survival of the previously dosed animals.
The animals were observed for deaths or overt signs of toxicity ½, 1, 2 and 4 hours after dosing and subsequently once daily for fourteen days.
Individual body weights were recorded prior to dosing and seven and fourteen days after treatment.
At the end of the observation period the animals were killed by cervical dislocation. All animals were subjected to gross pathological examination. This consisted of an external examination and opening of the abdominal and thoracic cavities for examination of major organs. The appearance of any macroscopic abnormalities was recorded. No tissues were retained. - Statistics:
- None recorded.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- According to the Globally Harmonized System as adopted in the EU, the LD50 of the test item is considered greater than 2000 mg/kg body weight (Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 – Unclassified).
The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test item in the female Wistar strain rat was estimated to be greater than 2500 mg/kg body weight (Globally Harmonized Classification System - Unclassified). - Executive summary:
INTRODUCTION
The study was performed to assess the acute oral toxicity of the test item in the Wistar strain rat.
METHODS
A group of three fasted females was treated with the test item at a dose level of 300 mg/kg body weight. Based on the results from this dose level, further groups of fasted females were treated at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg body weight. Dosing was performed sequentially.
For reasons of animal welfare the sequence of dosing did not exactly follow the Test Guideline as provided in Appendix 1. The applied dosing sequence did not affect the final conclusion on classification. A group of three fasted females was treated with the test item at a dose level of 300 mg/kg body weight. Based on the results from this dose level, further groups of fasted females were treated at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg body weight. Dosing was performed sequentially.
The test item was administered orally undiluted at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg and as a solution in arachis oil BP at a dose level of 300 mg/kg. Clinical signs and body weight development were monitored during the study. All animals were subjected to gross necropsy.
RESULTS
Mortality: no deaths
Clinical Observations: No signs of systemic toxicity
Body Weight: All animals showed expected gains in body weight
Necropsy: No abnormalities
CONCLUSION
According to the Globally Harmonized System as adopted in the EU, the LD50 of the test item is considered greater than 2000 mg/kg body weight (Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 – Unclassified).
The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test item in the female Wistar strain rat was estimated to be greater than 2500 mg/kg body weight (Globally Harmonized Classification System - Unclassified).
