Executive summary:

A single oral administration of the test substance by gavage to male and female rats at the limit-dose 5000 mg/kg was tolerated without remarkable clinical signs (LD50 > 5000 mg/kg body weight).

Additional information

The acute oral toxicity of the test substance was low with a LD50 value exceeding 5000 mg/kg bw in male and female rats (McLain et al., 1990). At the limit-dose 5000 mg/kg no remarkable clinical signs were observed during the 14-day post observation period.


Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
Only one study available

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the study results a classification according to Directive 67/548/EEC or Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) is not warranted.
