Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ANIMALS
- Source:Charles River Deutschland, Sulzfeld, Germany
- Age at study initiation: 9 weeks
- Weight at study initiation: Body weight variation did not exceed +/- 20% of the sex mean
- Housing: 3 per same group in stainless steel cage
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): SM R/M-Z from SSNIFF® Spezialdiäten GmbH, Soest, Germany
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): tap water


ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 18 to 24°C,
- Humidity (%):40to 70%
- Air changes (per hr): 15 room air changes/hour
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light):12/24

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
other: 0.6 % methyl cellulose aqueous solution
Details on oral exposure:
Amiloride Compound 5 was administered by oral gavage to two subsequent groups of three female
Wistar rats at 2000 mg/kg body weight
Doses:
2000 mg/kg body weight
No. of animals per sex per dose:
two subsequent groups of three female
Control animals:
not specified
Details on study design:
The toxicity of the test substance was assessed by stepwise treatment of groups of 3 females. The
first group was treated at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg. The absence or presence of mortality of animals
dosed at one step determined the next step, based on the test procedure defined in the guidelines.
The onset, duration and severity of the signs of toxicity were taken into account for determination of
the time interval between the dose groups.

Results and discussion

Preliminary study:
No Data
Effect levels
Sex:
female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Mortality:
No mortality occurred
Clinical signs:
other: Lethargy, hunched posture, uncoordinated movements, piloerection and/or ptosis were noted in the animals on Day 1. Hunched posture persisted in three females up Day 2.
Gross pathology:
No abnormalities were found at macroscopic post mortem examination of the animals.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The oral LD50 value of Amiloride Compound 5 in Wistar rats was established to exceed 2000 mg/kg
body weight.
According to the OECD 423 test guideline, the LD50 cut-off value was considered to exceed 5000
mg/kg body weight.
Based on these results, Amiloride Compound 5 does not have to be classified and has no obligatory
labelling requirement for acute oral toxicity according to the Globally Harmonized System of
Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) of the United Nations (2011) and Regulation (EC) No
1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures, including all
amendments.
