Conclusions:
In this acute dermal toxicity limit study a LD50 value > 2000 mg/kg bw infemale rats was derived.
Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed

The available information comprises an adequate and reliable study, and is thus sufficient to fulfil the standard information requirements set out in Annex VIII, 8.5, of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006.

Additional information

Oral

Acute oral toxicity was evaluated in a study performed according to OECD guideline 423 and in compliance with GLP (Hameln, 2018). Six female rats (3 per step) received an oral dose of 2000 mg/kg bw substance per gavage. No mortality and no signs of intoxication, change of health, nor any other adverse reaction was found in any animal during the 14 days of observation. The body weight of all animals increased during the study and no macroscopic findings were observed during necropsy. The oral LD50 was considered to be > 2000 mg/kg bw. Therefore, the test substance is not considered to have an acute toxicity potential via the oral route.

Dermal

Acute dermal toxicity was evaluated in a limit test performed according to OECD guideline 402 and in compliance with GLP (Hameln, 2018). Three female rats received a dermal dose of 2000 mg/kg bw test item held in place via a semi-occlusive dressing for 24 h. After 24 h the application site was washed with lukewarm water. No mortality, neither signs of intoxication, nor local signs of skin irritation were noted in any animal during the 14 days of observation. All animals gained body weight during the study and during necropsy no macroscopic changes were observed. The dermal LD50 was considered to be > 2000 mg/kg bw. Therefore, the test item is not considered to have an acute toxicity potential via the dermal route.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The available data on acute oral and dermal toxicity do not meet the classification criteria according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008, and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification.
