- Details on inhalation exposure:
- GENERATION OF TEST ATMOSPHERE / CHAMBER DESCRIPTION
- Exposure apparatus: Nose-only inhalation chamber from ADG Developments Ltd., Codicote, Hitchin, Herts, United Kingdom
- Exposure chamber volume: 50 L
- Method of holding animals in test chamber: Nose only
- Source and rate of air: Air was supplied in a volume of 53.1 L/min
- Method of conditioning air and generate aerosols: The test atmosphere was generated by nebulizing the test material into droplets by using as compressed air driven nebulizer (Schlick, Coburg, Germany, type 970/S).
- Method of particle size determination: Once during preliminary tests and once during exposure using a 10-stage cascade impactor (Anderssen, Atlanta, USA) with the largest cut-off size of 32 µm.
- Temperature and humidity in air chamber: Mean temperature during exposure 21.1 ± 0.2 °C (range 20.9 - 21.5 °C), mean relative humidity 53 ± 1 (range 51-54 %).
TEST ATMOSPHERE
- Brief description of analytical method used: Concentration of the test material in the test atmosphere was determined approx. once per hour by gravimetric analysis. 10 L test atmosphere samples were passed through fibre glass filters (Sartorius) at 5 L/min. The collected material was weighed to determine the concentration of test material in the exposure chamber.
- Samples taken from breathing zone: yes
TEST ATMOSPHERE
- Particle size distribution: 80% contained in particles with an aerodynamic diameter equal to or smaller than 5 µm

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified
- Conclusions:
- There were no unscheduled deaths or evidence of a toxic response following exposure of rats for 4 hours to a droplet aerosol generated from pectate lyase, PPE 6345 at a chamber concentration of 5.07 mg/L in air. Thus, it was concluded that the LC50 for pectate lyase is greater than 5.07 mg/m3.
- Executive summary:
The acute inhalation toxicity of pectate lyase (Batch number PPE 6345) was studied by nose-only exposure of one group of five male and five female rats each for a 4-hour period to a test atmosphere containing an aerosol of pectate lyase at a concentration of 5.07 ± 0.11 g/m3. The mass median aerodynamic diameter of the particles in the aerosol was 2.8 μm and the geometric standard deviation was 2.0. After exposure, the animals were kept for a 14-day observation period. During exposure, breathing abnormalities were restricted to a decreased breathing rate. No abnormalities were seen shortly after exposure or during the 14-day observation period. No mortality occurred. Weight gain in the animals was considered normal for animals of this strain and age. No abnormalities were seen at necropsy.
It was concluded that the 4-hour LC50 value of an aerosol of pectate lyase (Batch number PPE 6345) was greater than 5.07 g/m3 for both sexes.
