Executive summary:

The study was performed according to OECD 423 and EU Method B1 tris Acute Toxicity under GLP to assess the acute oral toxicity of the test item following a single oral administration in the HanBrl: WIST (SPF) strain rat. A group of three fasted females was treated with the test item at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bodyweight. This was followed by a further group of three fasted females at the same dose level. The test item was administered orally in a vehicle of 10 mL PEG-300. Clinical signs and bodyweight development were monitored during the study. All animals were subjected to gross necropsy. There were no mortalities. Hunched posture was noted in three of six females during the day of dosing and up to 4 hours after dosing. Additionally, these three females were observed to have slightly ruffled fur from the day of dosing to test day 6. Slightly ruffled fur was noted in two of the other females, but only during two examinations on the day of dosing. All females showed expected gains in bodyweight over the study period. No abnormalities were noted at necropsy. The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test item in the female HanBrl: WIST (SPF) strain rat was estimated to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw. Applicant assessment indicates: under the conditions of this study the acute toxicity estimate would be considered to be > 5000 mg/kg bw.

Details on inhalation exposure:
GENERATION OF TEST ATMOSPHERE / CHAMBER DESCRIPTION
- Exposure apparatus: An aerosol was generated by nebulization of the test substance by means of a nebulizer (type 950) and pressurized air. The test substance was transferred to the nebulizer by means of a rotating pump. The primary aerosol was diluted with pressurized air before it entered the exposure chamber
- Exposure chamber volume: approximately 150 mL. Was consistent with Am. Ind. Hyg Assoc. J. 44(12): 923-928, 1983.
- Method of holding animals in test chamber: Polycarbonate restraining tubes.
- Source and rate of air: filtered air, at least 26L/min mean total airflow.
- Method of conditioning air: not specified.
- System of generating particulates/aerosols: nebulizer; the chamber mean total flow rate was maintained at 26 L/min.
- Method of particle size determination: Particle size was determined using a cascade impactor. The device consisted of eight impactors stages containing fiber glass filters.
- Treatment of exhaust air: From the exposure chamber the test atmosphere was passed through a filter before it was released to the exhaust of the fume hood.
- Temperature, humidity, in air chamber: The temperature and relative humidity inside the exposure chamber were measured by an electronic thermometer/humidity meter: 19.4-19.9°C, 17-18% relative humidity.

TEST ATMOSPHERE
- Brief description of analytical method used: Actual concentration was determined nineteen times during the exposure period. Samples were drawn from the test atmosphere through a tube mounted in one of the free animal ports of the middle section of the exposure chamber. The collected amount of the test substance in the air sample was measured gravimetrically. Sample volumes were measured by means of a dry gas meter. The time-weighted mean concentration with the standard deviation was calculated. Full details of the analytical method are provided in the full study report.
- Samples taken from breathing zone: yes

TEST ATMOSPHERE (if not tabulated)
- Particle size distribution: The particle size of the generated atmosphere inside the exposure chamber was determined two times during each exposure period using a cascade impactor. The particle size distribution for each group is reported in table 1.

Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the study, the inhalation 4h-LC50 (male/female) was considered to be > 5.1 mg/L within the Crl:WI(Han) rat.
Executive summary:

The study was performed according to OECD TG 403, EU Method B.2, US EPA OPPTS 870.1300 and Japanese JMAFF guidelines in accordance with GLP to assess the acute inhalation toxicity of the test item. A single group of ten Wistar: Crl:WI(Han) strain rats (five males and five females) were exposed to an aerosol atmosphere of the test item. The groups were exposed for four hours using a nose only exposure system, followed by a fifteen day observation period. The mean achieved atmosphere concentrations were as follows: 5.1 ± 0.1 mg/L based on a nominal concentration of 7.8 mg/L. The characteristics of the achieved atmosphere where Mean Mass Median Diameter (particle size): > 2.3 μm and < 2.4 μm with geometric Standard Deviation > 1.9 and < 2.2. There were no mortalities in the 5.1 mg/L mean achieved atmosphere concentration. Slow breathing was noted during exposure. After exposure, no clinical signs were observed among the males, whereas hunched posture was observed on days 2 and 3 only for one female. The affected female had recovered from the signs between Days 3 and 4. Body weight loss was noted in some male/females during the first two days post-exposure. All males/females regained weight during the remainder of the observation period. No abnormalities were found at macroscopic post-mortem examination. Under the conditions of this study, the inhalation 4h-LC50 (male/female) was considered to be > 5.1 mg/L within the Wistar: Crl:WI(Han) rat.

Additional information

ORAL:

Key study : OECD TG 420, 2004 : The study was performed according to OECD 423 and EU Method B1 tris Acute Toxicity under GLP to assess the acute oral toxicity of the test item following a single oral administration in the HanBrl: WIST (SPF) strain rat. A group of three fasted females was treated with the test item at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bodyweight. This was followed by a further group of three fasted females at the same dose level. The test item was administered orally in a vehicle of 10 mL PEG-300. Clinical signs and bodyweight development were monitored during the study. All animals were subjected to gross necropsy. There were no mortalities. Hunched posture was noted in three of six females during the day of dosing and up to 4 hours after dosing. Additionally, these three females were observed to have slightly ruffled fur from the day of dosing to test day 6. Slightly ruffled fur was noted in two of the other females, but only during two examinations on the day of dosing. All females showed expected gains in bodyweight over the study period. No abnormalities were noted at necropsy. The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test item in the female HanBrl: WIST (SPF) strain rat was estimated to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw. Applicant assessment indicates: under the conditions of this study the acute toxicity estimate would be considered to be > 5000 mg/kg bw.
