- Remarks:
- distilled
- Details on oral exposure:
- VEHICLE
- Concentration in vehicle: 200 mg/mL
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): 10 mL/kg bw
MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED: 10 mL/kg bw
DOSAGE PREPARATION (if unusual): The formulation was freshly prepared at a concentration of 200 mg/mL and stirred continuous until dosing was completed
CLASS METHOD (if applicable)
- Rationale for the selection of the starting dose:The initial dose level was selected by the study director to be that which is most likely to produce mortality in some of the dosed animals. In the lack of any preliminary toxicological information, 2000 mg/kg bw was selected to be the starting dose. an initial group of three females was treated at this dose followed by a second group of three females similarly dosed. - Doses:
- 2000 mg/kg bw
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 3 females per group, two groups treated.
- Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- - Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: Daily observations and weekly bodyweight recording. Additional clinical observations recorded on Day 1, 30 mins, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 hours post administration
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes - Statistics:
- Not applicable for a limit test
Results and discussion
- Preliminary study:
- Not applicable
Effect levels
- Sex:
- male/female
- Dose descriptor:
- approximate LD50
- Effect level:
- > 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Remarks on result:
- other: Based on the acute Toxic Class Method, the median lethal dose was estimated to exceed the highest dose level administered, in the absence of any mortality or signs of toxicity at 2000 mg/kg bw
- Mortality:
- There were no deaths in either group dosed at 2000 mg/kg bw
- Clinical signs:
- other: Clinical signs of treatment were observed on Day 1 only - 3/6 rats showed decreased activity; 5/6 developed a hunched back and 2/6 had evidence of pilo-erection but all animals were overtly symptom free within 24 hours of dose administration
- Gross pathology:
- No macroscopic abnormalities were observed during necropsy of all surviving rats at termination on Day 14
- Other findings:
- No other findings

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified
- Remarks:
- Migrated information LD50 greater than 2000 mg/kg bw Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- The acute oral LD50 in rats for Sodium Isobutyrate Solution was found to exceed 2000 mg/kg bw in female CRL:(WI) rats.
The study result triggers no classification/labelling according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP). - Executive summary:
The acute oral toxicity of sodium isobutyrate solution was assessed according to the acute toxic class method (OECD 423 and Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008, B.1.Tris) in two groups of female CRL:(WI) rats treated at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. Initially, three females were treated at 2000 mg/kg bw and, as no mortality was observed, a confirmatory group was treated at the same dose level. No mortality was observed in the confirmatory group, therefore no further testing was required according to OECD 423 and Commission Regulation (EC) NO 440/2008 of 30 May 2008, B.1.Tris.
Rats were given a single oral treatment by gavage following overnight fasting. Sodium isobutyrate solution was
formulated in distilled water at a concentration of 200 mg/mL and was dosed in a volume of 10 mL/kg bw. Clinical observations were performed at 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 hours after dosing and daily for 14 days thereafter. Body weights were measured on Days -1, 0 and 7 and before necropsy. All animals were subjected to a necropsy and a macroscopic examination. There were no mortalities among the six rats dosed at 2000 mg/kg bw. Various clinical signs were observed on day 1 only - decreased activity affecting 3 rats, hunched back (5 rats) and piloerection (2 rats). All were symptom free within 24 hours of dosing. Bodyweight gains showed no effects of treatment. No macroscopic abnormalities were apparent during necropsy. The acute oral LD50, estimated using the Acute Toxic Class method, was greater than 2000 mg/kg bw and no classification is required for oral toxicity.
