Description of key information
The oral LD50 value of R507-2 in Wistar rats was established to exceed 2000 mg/kg body weight.
The dermal LD50 value of R507-2 in Wistar rats was established to exceed 2000 mg/kg body weight.
The inhalation LC50 value of R507-2 in Wistar rats was found to exceed the maximum attainable concentration of 3 mg/L.
However based on the maximum concentration attainable in air, the minor temporary decrease in body weight, the absence of mortality, clinical symptoms and macroscopic findings, R507-2 does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for inhalation toxicity according to the GHS of Classification and labelling of Chemicals of the United nations (2004) and EC criteria for classification and labelling (1272/2008).

- GENERATION OF TEST ATMOSPHERE / CHAMBER DESCRIPTION
- Exposure apparatus: Exposure chamber
- Method of holding animals in test chamber: Animals were restrained in polycarbonate restraining tubes.
- Source and rate of air: 2.0 L/min
- System of generating particulates/aerosols: Aerosol was generated by administering the test substance to a stream of pressurized air by means of a brush feeder and an air mover. The aerosol was directly led through the exposure chamber. From the exposure chamber the test atmosphere was passed through a filter before it was released to the exhaust of the fume hood.
- Method of particle size determination: Particle size distribution was characterized twice during the exposure period. The samples were drawn (2 L/min) from the test atmosphere through a tube mounted in one the free animal ports of the middles sections of the exposure chamber. Samples were than collected with an 8 stage Marple personal cascade impactor. Amounts of test substance collected were gravimetrically. MMAD and GSD were determined.
- Temperature, humidity, pressure in air chamber: The temperature and relative humidity were measured with a humidity and temperature indicator and were recorded after the animals were placed in the experimental set up and at 30 minute intervals after initiation of the exposure. The probe was inserted in a tube mounted in one of the free animal ports of the middles section of the exposure chamber.

- Body weight:
- Slight body weight loss was shown by the males between Day 1 and 8. This body weight loss was considered minor based on the absence of any corroborative findings in these animals. The mean body weight gain shown by females and males over the study period was considered to be similar to that expected of normal untreated animals of the same age and strain.
- Gross pathology:
- Macroscopic post mortem examination of the animals at termination revealed dark red discolouration of the caecum in one male and two females and reddish discolouration of the tail in all animals.

- Conclusions:
- The LC50 value of R507-2 in Wistar rats was found to exceed the maximum attainable concentration of 3 mg/L.
However based on the maximum concentration attainable in air, the minor temporary decrease in body weight, the absence of mortality, clinical symptoms and macroscopic findings, R507-2 does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for inhalation toxicity according to the GHS of Classification and labelling of Chemicals of the United nations (2004) and EC criteria for classification and labelling (1272/2008). - Executive summary:
R507-2 was administered by inhalation for 4 hours to one group of five males and five female Wistar rats. Animals were subjected to daily observations and weekly determinations of body weight. Macroscopic examination was performed after terminal sacrifice (day 15)
The mean actual concentration was 3 +/-0.7 mg/L. The concentration was considered the maximum attainable concentration of R507 -2 which could be generated at a stable level for 4 hours. The nominal concentration was 14.9 mg/L. The generation efficiency was 20 %.
MMAD and GSD were determined twice. The MMAD was 1.2 micrometeres and 1.0 micrometres respectively and the GSD was 2.4 and 3.3 respectively.
No mortality occurred.
No signs of systemic toxicity were noted.
Red staining of the fur due to deposition of test substance on the snout of the animals during exposure was noted in all animals throughout the entire observation period. Red faeces were noted in all animals from Day 2 to day 5. This finding is considered to be due to grooming of the fur and the subsequent ingestion of the test substance.
The mean body weight gain shown by females and males over the study period was considered to be similar to that expected of normal untreated animals of the same age and strain.
Macroscopic post mortem examination of the animals at termination revealed dark red discolouration of the caecum in one male and two females and reddish discolouration of the tail in all animals.
The LC50 value of R507 -2 in Wistar rats was found to exceed the maximum attainable concentration of 3 mg/L.
However based on the maximum concentration attainable in air, the minor temporary decrease in body weight, the absence of mortality, clinical symptoms and macroscopic findings, R507-2 does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for inhalation toxicity according to the GHS of Classification and labelling of Chemicals of the United nations (2004) and EC criteria for classification and labelling (1272/2008).
Reference
An average exposure concentration of 3 mg/L was attained instead of the target concentration of 5 mg/L. During method development in the first instance a spiral feeder was used to administer test substance to the air mover. Although different spirals were used no stable delivery of test substance to the air mover was attained, due to clogging of the spiral by the test substance. The spiral feeder was replaced by a brush feeder for the delivery of the test substance. A more stable concentration was attained and no clogging of the apparatus occurred. It was concluded that the brush feeder was the most suitable feeding apparatus.
In view of the effort spent to generate a test atmosphere with R507 -2 and the generation efficiency during exposure to animals, which was relatively high, 3 mg/L was considered the maximum attainable concentration which could be generated in air for 4 hours.

R507 -2 was administered by a single dermal application to two subsequent groups of 5 female Wistar rats and 5 male rats at 2000 mg/kg body weight for 24 hours. Animals were subjected to daily observations and weekly determination of body weight. Macroscopic examination was performed after terminal sacrifice (Day 15)
No Mortality occurred.
Hunched posture, piloerection and/or chromodacryorrhoea were noted among both males and females. In addition, lethargy, flat posture, uncoordinated movements, quick breathing, shallow respiration, ptosis and/or hypothemia were noted in all males. The animals had recovered from the symptoms between Days 2 and 3.
These symptoms were occasionally seen in dermal toxicity studies. Based on their mild nature and short duration, these symptoms were considered to be of no toxicological significance.
Scales and/or scabs were seen in the treated skin area of the majority of females during the observation period.
Red staining of the treated skin area and/or other body parts of the animals was noted during the observation period and was considered to be related to staining properties of the test substance.
The changes noted in the body weight gain in males and females were within the range expected for rats used in this type of study.
At macroscopic post mortem examination, isolated grey/white foci, enlargement and dark red discoloration were found in the papillary process in the liver of one male. Macroscopic post mortem examination of the other animals at termination did not reveal any abnormalities.
The dermal LD50 value of R507-2 in Wistar rats was established to exceed 2000 mg/kg body weight.
