Test material

Constituent 1
Chemical structure
Reference substance name:
Dipotassium dodecenylsuccinate
EC Number:
260-612-0
EC Name:
Dipotassium dodecenylsuccinate
Cas Number:
57195-28-5
Molecular formula:

Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ANIMALS
- Source: InVivos Pte Ltd, 9 Perahu Road, Lim Chu Kang, Singapore 718793

- Females nulliparous and non-pregnant: yes
- Age at study initiation: 8-12 weeks old at dosing
- Weight at study initiation: 202 - 286 g
- Fasting period before study: The test animals were fasted overnight before dosing; water was not withheld.
- Housing: Individual Ventilated Cage System
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): Altromin Maintenance Diet #1324
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): tap water
- Acclimation period: The test animals were acclimatised for at least 5 days before the test was conducted.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 18 – 26
- Humidity (%): 30 - 70

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Details on oral exposure:
MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED:
The test substance was then administered by gavage feeding needle at a dose level of 300 mg/kg body weight (for animals in Group 1 and Group 2) and 2000 mg/kg body weight (for animals in Group 3 and Group 4) based on the body weight of each test animal.

CLASS METHOD
- Rationale for the selection of the starting dose: In this study, 4 groups of animals were dosed in total. The starting dose for Group 1 was selected at 300 mg/kg body weight based on OECD Guideline 423 and as required by sponsor.
Doses:
300 mg/kg body weight (for animals in Group 1 and Group 2) and 2000 mg/kg body weight (for animals in Group 3 and Group 4)
No. of animals per sex per dose:
3
Control animals:
no
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: The observation was conducted on each animal during the first 30 minutes, 1, 2 and 4 hours, and daily thereafter to 14 days. The body weight of each animal was measured once a week or more frequently when adverse effect was observed.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 5 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Based on above results the acute oral toxicity of the test item – Dipotassium dodecenylsuccinate (aq. solution), Lot No: 170727 is considered as not classified under CLP.
Based on OECD Guideline 423, the LD50 cut-off value of the of test item is 5000 mg/kg body weight or not classified.
