Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified
Conclusions:
LC50 value for acute inhalation toxicity test was considered to be >5.140mg/L .when rats were exposed with Triisobutyl phosphate (126-71-6) by inhalation for 4 hour.
Executive summary:

The acute inhalation toxicity study of Triisobutyl phosphate (126-71-6) was performed according to OECD guideline 403. 5 Male and 5 femaleWistar(Hoe:WISKf/SPF71) rats were exposed with test material in the concentration of 5.140mg/L inhaled (head/nose exposure ) for 4 hour. The median aerodynamic diameter being 1.3(with a geometric standard deviation of 1.6)All animals were observation for mortality and signs of toxicity for 21 days .No mortality were observed at dose concentration 5.140mg/L.Clinical signs included dyspnea, tremor, uncoordinated movements, a reduced level of spontaneous activity, ruffled fur, reduced startle reflexes and pinch reflexes, noses with bloody encrustations sneezing narrow palpebral fissure as well as reddish saliva and nasal discharge.

Body weight gain was impaired in the first week of post exposure observation. After 21 days the rats were free of symptoms again, with the exception of one female rats and their body weight had returned to normal. At necropsy at the end of the observation period approximately half of the animals exhibited discoloration of the lungs. HenceLC50value for acute inhalation toxicity testwas considered to be >5.140mg/L .when rats were exposed with Triisobutyl phosphate (126-71-6) by inhalation for 4 hour.
