Description of key information
Studies on DEA acetate were not available, but laboratory animals have been tested with both RA1 and RA2 via the oral and dermal routes. Acute oral LD50 values of 7500 mg/kg bw and over 2000 mg/kg bw were reported for RA2 and RA1, respectively, in rats. Dermal LD50 values in excess of 2000 mg/kg bw were reported for RA1 (in rats) and RA2 (in rabbits). Inhalation exposure is not expected.

- Executive summary:
RA1 was evaluated for its acute toxicity potential following oral administration at a dose of 2000 mg/kg bw in male and female Wistar rats.
Animals were administered a single dose of the test substance on a mg/kg bw basis by oral gavage following fasting for approximately 16.5 hours, but with free access to water. Three hours after dosing, the animals were returned to their cages and supplied with feed and water ad libitum.
No mortalities or clinical signs were observed during the study and the body weight of the animals was within the range commonly recorded for this strain and age.
Based on these results, the medial lethal dose (LD50) of RA1 after single oral administration to rats of both sexes, observed over a period of 14 days, was greater than 2000 mg/kg bw.

- Executive summary:
RA1 was evaluated for its potential to induce acute toxicity following dermal administration at a dose of 2000 mg/kg bw in male and female Wistar rats.
Animals were treated with RA1 at 2000 mg/kg bw by dermal application for 24 hr. The test article was administered undiluted at a volume of 2 ml/kg. The animals were examined for clinical signs and mortality/viability for 14 days after application of the test substance.
No deaths occurred during the study and no clinical signs were observed. In addition, the body weight of the animals was unaffected by treatment and no macroscopic findings were observed at necropsy.
Based on these results, the 24-hr median lethal dose of RA1 after single dermal administration to rats of both sexes is greater than 2000 mg/kg bw.

Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Value:
- 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Quality of whole database:
- No acute dermal data were available on DEA acetate, but two good-quality, reliable, GLP-compliant, OECD-guideline study on structurally-related compounds RA1 (Rosner, 2000b) and RA2 (Pfeifer, 1996b) meet the REACH tonnage-driven data requirements.
Additional information
No acute toxicity data were available on DEA acetate, but reliable guideline studies are available on structurally related compounds.
No mortalities or clinical signs of toxicity were seen in male and female rats given a single oral gavage treatment with RA1 at 2000 mg/kg bw, then observed over 14 days. The acute oral LD50 was greater than 2000 mg/kg bw (Rosner, 2000a). Five of ten treated Sprague-Dawley rats (one male and four females) given RA2 at 7500 mg/kg bw by oral gavage died within 14 days of treatment. The acute oral LD50 was therefore set at 7500 mg/kg bw (Pfeifer, 1996a).
No mortalities or clinical signs of toxicity were seen in rats given a 24-hour dermal application of RA1 at 2000 mg/kg bw and observed for 14 days of treatment. No macroscopic findings were seen at necropsy. The acute dermal LD50 of RA1 was determined to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw (Rosner, 2000b). A 24-hour dermal application of RA2 at 2000 mg/kg bw caused no clinical signs of toxicity or mortality over the course of the 14-day study in albino rabbits (Pfeifer, 1996b).
According to Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, acute toxicity studies need only be provided for the oral route (Annex VII) and, when inhalation exposure of humans likely, the inhalation route (Annex VIII). Based on its low vapour pressure and high water solubility, no inhalation exposure of humans to DEA acetate is expected. As such, the available and reliable oral and dermal data on the read-across substances are considered sufficient for this endpoint.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
GLP, OECD guideline study (reliability 2).
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – inhalation endpoint
Data waiver based on the low likelihood of inhalation exposure, and reliable acute oral and dermal data.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint
GLP, OECD guideline study (reliability 2).
Justification for classification or non-classification
According to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, classification is applicable when the acute oral or dermal LD50 values are less than or equal to 2000 mg/kg bw. Reliable studies carried out on RA1 and RA2 reported LD50 values in excess of 2000 mg/kg bw (Pfeifer, 1996a,b; Rosner, 2000a,b). On this basis, DEA acetate does not require classification for acute oral or dermal toxicity.
No relevant data is available on the acute inhalation toxicity of DEA acetate. Inhalation exposure is not expected.
