- Conclusions:
- cC6O4 ammonium salt has a toxic effect on the rat following oral administration of a single dose at a level of 2000 mg(dry salt)/kg.
The mortality pattern of the test item, cC6O4 ammonium salt, demonstrates the LD50 to be greater than 300 mg(dry salt)/kg but less than 2000 mg(dry salt)/kg body weight.
These results meet the criteria for European CLP Regulation classification as : Acute oral toxicity - Category 4. - Executive summary:
The acute toxicity of cC6O4 ammonium salt was investigated after a single oral administration (12.5 ml/kg in water) to female Sprague Dawley rats followed by a 14-day observation period. The animals were sacrificed at the end of the observation period and subjected to necropsy examination.
A first sub-group of 3 female animals was initially dosed at 2000 mg(dry salt)/kg body weight (step 1).
Mortality occurred in all animals between 2 and 4 hours after dosing. Lethargy, difficult breathing, piloerection, tremors and salivation were observed prior to death with various incidence.
At necropsy examination, performed on the early decedent animals, dark colour of the liver, brown gelatinous contents or dark areas in the stomach and red staining on the muzzle were recorded in all animals. In addition, red colour of the thymus was recorded in two animals.
A second and third subgroup, each composed of 3 females, were then dosed at 300 mg(dry salt)/kg body weight (steps 2 and 3). No mortality was recorded in any animal. Clinical signs were limited to piloerection observed on the day of dosing.
A very slight body weight loss was detected in two animals on Day 15, without any toxicological significance. Body weight changes were within the expected range for this strain and age of animals.
No abnormalities were observed at necropsy examination performed at the end of the observation period in these animals.
These results indicate that the test item, cC6O4 ammonium salt, has a toxic effect on the rat following oral administration of a single dose at a level of 2000 mg(dry salt)/kg. The mortality pattern demonstrates the LD50 to be greater than 300 mg(dry salt)/kg but less than 2000 mg(dry salt)/kg body weight. Based on criteria in the European Directives concerning the classification, packaging and labelling of dangerous substances (Council Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 and subsequent revisions), the classification is the following:

Additional information
An oral toxicity study according to OECD guideline 423 and EU method B.1 and a dermal toxicity study according to OECD guideline 402 and EU method B.3 were performed to test the acute toxicity of cC6O4 ammonium salt.
The studies were performed under GLP conditions.
In the oral toxicity study, the acute toxicity of cC6O4 ammonium salt was investigated after a single oral administration (12.5 ml/kg in water) to female Sprague Dawley rats followed by a 14-day observation period. (Doses: 300mg/kg b.w.(dry salt) , 2000 mg/kg b.w.(dry salt)).
The animals were sacrificed at the end of the observation period and subjected to necropsy examination. The results of the test indicate that the test item, cC6O4 ammonium salt, caused death on all the treated rats following oral administration of a single dose at a level of 2000 mg/kg b.w. (dry salt).
No mortality was recorded in any animal dosed at 300 mg/kg b.w. (dry salt).
These results are consistent with the toxicity observed in the dose-range finding study preliminary to the rat in vivo micronucleus study where the dose of 2000 mg/kg cause death of one out of 2 dosed Wistar rats, within a 48-hr observation period. No death was observed at up to the dose of 1750 m/kg bw after a 48-hr observation period.
In the dermal toxicity study, the acute toxicity of cC6O4 ammonium salt was investigated following administration of a single dermal dose to the rat. No mortality occurred following dosing and no significant clinical signs were observed. These results indicate that the test item, cC6O4 ammonium salt, has no toxic effect on the rat following dermal exposure over a 24 hour period at a level of 2000 mg/kg b.w. (dry salt). The lack of mortality demonstrates the LD50 to be greater than 2000 mg/kg b.w. (dry salt).
