GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) in rats is greater than 5 g/kg bw. Therefore, no indication for acute toxicity is indicated.
Executive summary:

The test substance was tested for its acute toxicity potential in the standard acute test method, similar to OECD 401. Five male and female Sprague-Dawley rats were individually housed. The test substance was administered in a carboxymethyl cellulose vehicle as a limit dose of 5000 mg/kg bw. Animals were observed for clinical signs and an autopsy was performed at the end of the 14 day observation period. There were no clinical symptoms observed and no animal died during the study. At autopsy no changes in organs or tissues caused by the administration of the test compound were seen. The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) was greater than 5000 mg/kg body weight and the test substance is not considered acute toxic in rats.

Additional information

Acute oral toxicity


The test substance was tested for its acute toxicity potential in the standard acute test method, similar to OECD 401. Five male and female Sprague-Dawley rats were individually housed. The test substance was administered in a carboxymethyl cellulose vehicle as a limit dose of 5000 mg/kg bw. Animals were observed for clinical signs and an autopsy was performed at the end of the 14 day observation period. There were no clinical symptoms observed and no animal died during the study. At autopsy no changes in organs or tissues caused by the administration of the test compound were seen. The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) was greater than 5000 mg/kg body weight and the test substance is not considered acute toxic in rats.


 


Acute dermal toxicity


As no reliable data on acute dermal toxicity was available for the test substance, a read-across to a study with a structural anologue (CAS 12286-65-6) was performed. 


The structural analogue substance was tested for acute dermal toxicity using Wistar rats. Two groups of animals (5 males and 5 females) received a single dose of 2000 mg/kg bw. The test material was applied onto shaved dorsal skin for 24 hours. The test animals were observed 14 days after exposure of the test substance, afterwards they were sacrificed, and the necropsy for macroscopic examination of the organs was performed. The test item did not cause mortality. Clinical signs or macroscopic changes were not observed.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Classification, Labelling, and Packaging Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008


The available experimental test data are reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation 1272/2008. No mortality occurred at the limit dose of 2000 mg/kg bw. As a result, the substance is not considered to be classified for acute oral or dermal toxicity under Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, as amended for the fifteenth time in Regulation (EC) No. 2020/1182.
