- Details on oral exposure:
- DOSAGE PREPARATION: Each sample was administered as a 1 % weight per volume suspension in corn oil at dosage levels of 0.01, 0.0215, 0.0464, 0.100 and 0.215 and as a 50% w/v suspension in corn oil at dosage levels of 0.464 grams per kilogram of body weight. These dilutions necessitated use of dosage factors of 1.00, 2.15, 4.64, 10.0 and 10.0 and 21.5 ml/kg for the 1 % suspension and 0.93 ml for the 50% suspension whivh were calculated by the following formula to enable administration of the desired dose of the compounds: Dosage Factor = Dose to be given (mg/kg)/ Concentration of sample (mg/ml)
- Doses:
- 0.01, 0.0215, 0.0464, 0.1 and 0.464 g/kg
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 5 males per dose
- Control animals:
- not specified
- Details on study design:
- - Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: at frequent intervals during the day of dosage, and at least once daily thereafter for a total of 14 days.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes
- Other examinations performed: clinical signs, body weight,organ weights. - Statistics:
- Statistical analysis of the mortality data was by the moving average method.
Results and discussion
Effect levels
- Key result
- Sex:
- male
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Effect level:
- 43 mg/kg bw
- Based on:
- test mat.
- 95% CL:
- > 26.5 - < 69.8
- Mortality:
- At the 10 mg/kg bw level, no rat died.
At the 21.5 mg/kg bw level, one rat died within two hours following dosage.
At the 46.4 mg/kg bw level, two rats died within four hours.
At the 100 mg/kg bw level, five rats died within 24 hours.
At the 464 mg/kg bw level, five rats died within 1 hour. - Clinical signs:
- other: At the 10 mg/kg bw level all rats exhibited diarrhea during the day of dosage but exhibited normal appearance and behavior throughout the 14 post-dosage day observation period. At the 21.5 mg/kg bw level, toxic effects included depression, piloerection, d
- Gross pathology:
- Gross necropsies on the rats which died before termination of the study revealed the following:
- Externally: At the 21.5 and 46.4 mg/kg bw levels, rats exhibited excessive salivation and diarrhea stains. At the 100 mg/kg bw level, two rats exhibited diarrhea stains, and one exhibited salivation stains.
- Internally: At the 21.5 mg/kg bw level, gross pathological alterations included congested adrenals and kidneys, irritated gastrointestinal tract and peritoneal walls, and diffusely pale liver. At the 46.4 mg/kg bw level, internal gross pathological alterations were the same as above with the addition of stomachs filled with a fluid resembling the sample. At the 100 mg/kg bw level, gross pathological alterations were the same as above with observation of congested lungs and three rats exhibiting darkened livers. At the 46.4 mg/kg bw level, gross pathological alterations included congested lungs and kidneys, stomachs diffusely whitened and thickened and filled with a white, gritty substance resembling the sample. Intestinal tracts were slightly irritated and livers were diffusely pale. No other gross pathological alterations were noted.
Gross necropsies performed at termination revealed one diffusely necrotic liver in one rat at the 100 mg/kg bw level. No other significant gross pathological alterations were seen at any other level tested.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 2 based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this test, a LD50 equal to 43 mg/kg bw was observed. Therefore, according to GHS criteria a classification as Acute Tox. 2, H300 is required.
- Executive summary:
This study was conducted to evaluate the acute oral toxicity of the benzyltriphenylphosphonium Chloride. Five male rats per dose were administered the test substance at the following dose level: 10, 21.5, 46.4, 100 and 464 mg/kg bw. All animals were observed closely for gross signs of systemic toxicity and mortality at frequent intervals during the day of dosage, and at least once daily thereafter for a total of 14 days. Gross necropsies were performed on the animals that died. At the end of the 14-day observation period the surviving rats were weighed, sacrificed by cerebral concussion, and gross necrospsies were performed. Statistical analysis of the mortality data was by the moving average method. Deaths were as follows: 0/5, 1/5, 2/5, 5/5 and 5/5 (from the lowest to the highest dose). A LD50 of 43 mg/kg bw was observed. The main clinical signs observed were comatose appearance, depression, depressed righting, placement and pain reflexes, labored respiration, pale extremities, hypotermia, piloerection, squinting, and diarrhea stains. Therefore, according to GHS criteria a classification as Acute Tox. 2, H300 is required.
