Executive summary:

A acute toxicity test was performed according to 96/54/EG, B.tris (Akute-toxische-Klassen-Methode); OECD 423. Groups of 3 male or female rats were exposed to the test substance at concentration of 200 (male and female groups) and 2000 mg/kg (male group) in purified water. All three male rats died in four hours of treatment of 2000 mg/kg. Relief, lateral extension, dysponoea, piloerection and coma were observed prior to death. The groups (3 males and 3 females) receiving 200 mg/kg did not show clinical effects and no mortalities were observed. The treatment did not show any influence on the body weight of the animals. During necropsy no visible anomalies in the animals were observed.
