Description of key information
ORAL
The acute oral toxicity of DVS005u was determined to be LD50 > 2000 mg/kg according to a study performed in accordance with GLP and to the standardised guidelines OECD 420 and EU Method B.1.
DERMAL
The acute dermal toxicity of DVS005u was determined to be LD50 > 2000 mg/kg according to a study performed in accordance with GLP and to the standardised guidelines OECD 402 and EU Method B.3.
INHALATION
In accordance with point 8.5.5, Column 2, adaptation of Annex VII, testing by the inhalation route is deemed inappropriate as exposure to humans via inhalation is unlikely to occur as the substance does not have a high vapour pressure, and will not be used in a manner likely to produce aerosols or droplets of an inhalable size.
Key value for chemical safety assessment

Introduction. The study was performed to assess the acute oral toxicity of the test material in the Wistar strain rat. The method was designed to meet the requirements of the following:
- OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals No 420 “Acute Oral Toxicity - Fixed Dose Method” (2001)
- Method B1 bis Acute Toxicity (Oral) of CommissionRegulation (EC) No. 440/2008
Method. Following a sighting test with one female at dose levels of 300 mg/kg and 2000 mg/kg, a further group of four fasted females was given a single oral dose of test material, as a solution in arachis oil BP, at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. Clinical signs and bodyweight development were monitored during the study. All animals were subjected to gross necropsy.
Mortality. There were no deaths.
Clinical Observations. There were no signs of systemic toxicity. Pale faeces were noted in one animal.
Bodyweight. All animals showed expected gains in bodyweight.
Necropsy. No abnormalities were noted at necropsy.
Conclusion. The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the female Wistar strain rat was estimated to be greater than 2000mg/kg bodyweight (Globally Harmonised Classification System-Unclassified).

- Details on dermal exposure:
- One day before treatment, the backs of the animals were clipped with an electric clipper, exposing an area of approximately 10 % of the total body surface.
In the absence of data suggesting the test material was toxic, one male and one female rat were initially treated with the test material at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg.
The calculated volume of test material, as received, was applied as evenly as possible to an area of shorn skin (approximately 10% of the total body
surface area) using a graduated syringe. A piece of surgical gauze, approximately 10 cm x 8 cm in size, was placed over the treatment area and semi-occluded with a piece of self adhesive bandage. The animals were caged individually for the 24 hour exposure period. Shortly after dosing the
dressings were examined to ensure that they were securely in place.
After the 24-hour contact period the bandage was carefully removed and the treated skin and surrounding hair wiped with cotton wool moistened
with distilled water to remove any residual test material. The animals were returned to group housing for the remainder of the study period.
As no mortalities were noted a further group of animals (four males and four females) was similarly treated with the test material at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bodyweight to give a total of five males and five females. After the 24 hour contact period the bandages were carefully removed and the treated skin and surrounding hair wiped with cotton wool moistened with arachis oil BP to remove any residual test material. These animals were returned to group housing for the remainder of the test period.
The animals were observed for deaths or overt signs of toxicity ½, 1, 2 and 4 hours after dosing and subsequently once daily for fourteen days.
Rationale: Dermal administration was used as this is one possible route of human exposure during manufacture, handling and use of the test item. - Duration of exposure:
- 24 hours

- 2000 mg/kg body weight
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 5 males and 5 females

- Executive summary:
- Introduction: The
study was performed to assess the acute dermal toxicity of the test
material in the Wistar strain rat. The method was designed to meet the
requirements of OECD Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals No. 402
"Acute Dermal Toxicity" (adopted
24 February 1987) and Method B3 Acute Toxicity (Dermal) of Commission
Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008.
Method: Initially, two animals (one male and one female) were given a single, 24 hour, semi-occluded dermal application of the undiluted test material to intact skin at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bodyweight. Based on the results of the initial test, a further group of eight animals (four males and four females) was similarly treated. Clinical signs and bodyweight development were monitored during the study. All animals were subjected to gross necropsy.
Results:
Mortality: There were no deaths.
Clinical Observations: Increased respiratory rate and/or hunched posture were noted in two animals. No other signs of systemic toxicity were noted.
Dermal Irritation: There were no signs of dermal irritation.
Bodyweight: All animals showed expected gains in bodyweight over the study period.
Necropsy: No abnormalities were noted at necropsy.
Conclusion:
The acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the Wistar strain rat was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg. bodyweight.

Additional information
Acute oral toxicity
The key study (Sanders, 2010) was conducted in line with GLP and standardised guidelines with a sufficient level of detail to assess the quality of the study. Female Wistar rats were exposed to the test material first in a sighting test to 300 mg/kg, then at 2000 mg/kg following the fixed dose procedure. No mortalities or systemic signs of toxicity were observed at the higher dose level, therefore the LD50 is determined to be > 2000 mg/kg. The study was performed to a good standard and was assigned a reliability score of 1 using the principles for assessing data quality as set out in Klimisch (1997).
Acute dermal toxicity
The key study (Sanders, 2010) was conducted in line with GLP and standardised guidelines with a sufficient level of detail to assess the quality of the study. Male and female Wistar rats were exposed 2000 mg/kg of the test material following the standard acute method. No mortalities or systemic signs of toxicity were observed at the higher dose level, therefore the LD50 is determined to be > 2000 mg/kg. Slight deviations from the standard guideline were recorded, however these were not thought to have any effect on the outcome to the study, or affect the reliability of the results. The study was performed to a good standard and was assigned a reliability score of 1 using the principles for assessing data quality as set out in Klimisch (1997).
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
One key study available.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint
One key study available.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Acute oral toxicity
The acute oral toxicity study indicated that the toxicity of the test material is above the limits of classification. The test material does not require classification in line with Regulation 1272/2008.
Acute dermal toxicity
The acute dermal toxicity study indicated that the toxicity of the test material is above the limits of classification. The test material does not require classification in line with Regulation 1272/2008.
