TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Charles River Deutschland, Sulzfeld, Germany
- Females nulliparous and non-pregnant: yes
- Age at study initiation: approximately 10 weeks old
- Weight at study initiation: males: 340 - 425 g; females: 208 - 225 g
- Fasting period before study: food was withheld overnight (for a maximum of 20 hours) prior to dosing until approximately 3 - 4 hours after administration of the test substance
- Housing: group housing of 3 animals per sex per cage in labelled polycarbonate cages containing purified sawdust as bedding material (SAWI, Jelu Werk, Rosenberg,Germany).
- Diet (ad libitum): standard pelleted laboratory animal diet (from Cerfil Quality BVBA, Oud-Turnhout, Belgium)
- Water (ad libitum): tap-water
- Acclimation period: at least 5 days

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature: 21°C
- Relative humidity: 30 - 70%
- Air changes: approximately 15 air changes per hour
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
propylene glycol
Details on oral exposure:
VEHICLE
- Justification for choice of vehicle: vehicle was selected based on a pretest performed

MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED: 10 mL/kg

DOSAGE PREPARATION:
The formulation (w/w) was prepared within 4 hours prior to dosing. Homogeneity was accomplished to a visually acceptable level. Adjustment was made for specific gravity of vehicle (specific gravity 1.036).
Doses:
2000 mg/kg bw
No. of animals per sex per dose:
3 males / 3 females
Control animals:
no
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 15 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: mortality/viability was recorded twice daily; body weights were recorded on days 1 (pre-administration), 8 and 15; clinical signs at periodic intervals on the day of dosing (day 1) and once daily thereafter, until day 15
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes, at the end of the observation period
Statistics:
No statistical analysis was performed.

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Key result
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Mortality:
No mortality occurred.
Clinical signs:
other: - females: hunched posture, uncoordinated movements and/or piloerection - males: lethargy and/or uncoordinated movements The animals had recovered from the symptoms between days 2 and 4.
Gross pathology:
No abnormalites were found at macroscopic post mortem examination of the animals.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
LD50 (male and female rats) > 2000 mg/kg bw
According to the Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 and subsequent adaptations, the substance is not acutely toxic via the oral route.
