Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 4 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
ConclusionsThis study was conducted in accordance with the OECD-423guideline. From the observations in the present study, sesamolshould be placed under GHS category 4 (>300–2000) with LD50cut-off value of 500 mg/kg in female C57BL/6 mice.
