Description of key information
The key study was a 14-day acute gavage study of the effects of the substance on northern bobwhite (Colinus virginianus), conducted in accordance with an established guideline.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Short-term EC50 or LC50 for birds:
- 1 404.8 mg/kg food
Additional information
In the key study, acute oral toxicity to birds was determined as LD50 = 175.6 mg/kg bw. The NOEL was determined to be less than the lowest level tested (<79.0 mg/kg), based on the examination of body weight, feed consumption, clinical signs of toxicity(e.g., loose excreta, lethargy, laboured breathing, closure of both eyes) and mortality. The key value of LC50 = 1404.8 mg/kg food was derived from the LD50, based on the conversion equation and conversion factor value in ECHA guidance (Equation R.10, and a conversion factor value of 8 for Gallus domesticus, another member of the order Galliformes, fromTable R.10-12; Guidance on Information Requirements and Chemical Safety Assessment Chapter R.10: Characterisation of Dose [Concentration] Response for Environment, May 2008). Using the same methodology, the NOEL of < 79 mg/kg bw may be represented as a NOEC < 632 mg/kg food.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
