By applying weight of evidence approach to the target substance 5-Nitrovanillin,the endpoint value was found to vary between LD50 = 1580 mg/kg bw to 2028 mg/kg bw and LDLo = 3000 mg/kg bw thus it is concluded that 5-Nitrovanillin does not exhibits acute toxicity by the oral route. Acute inhalation: The LC50 value as predicted by the QSAR model was found to be 967.82989502 mg/L of male Mouse by the inhalation route. also the supporing value was found to be > 41.7 mg/m³ airi on rat .This values suggests that 5-nitrovanillin shall not exhibit acute toxicity by the inhalation route within this concentration range. Acute Dermal : The LD50 value as predicted by the QSAR model was found to be 2880.800 mg/kg bw in New Zealand white rabbit by the dermal route. This value suggests that 5-nitrovanillin shall not exhibit acute toxicity by the dermal route within this concentration range

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint

The LD50 value as predicted by the QSAR model was found to be 2028.474 mg/Kg bw of Rat by the oral route. This value suggests that 5-nitrovanillin shall not exhibit acute toxicity by the oral route within this concentration range

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – inhalation endpoint

The LC50 value as predicted by the QSAR model was found to be 967.8 mg/L of male Mouse by the inhalation route. This value suggests that 5-nitrovanillin shall not exhibit acute toxicity by the inhalation route within this concentration range

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint

The LD50 value as predicted by the QSAR model was found to be 2880.800 mg/kg bw in New Zealand white rabbit by the dermal route. This value suggests that 5-nitrovanillin shall not exhibit acute toxicity by the dermal route within this concentration range

Justification for classification or non-classification

From the predictions done by the QSAR model in the absence of available data for target , the predicted values and supporting values indicate that 5-nitrovanillin is not likely to exhibit acute toxicity by the oral, inhalation and dermal route. Thus, this chemical is not classified as causing acute toxicity by the oral, inhalation and dermal route within the concentration ranges mentioned in the results of the prediction by QSAR.
