CLASS METHOD
- Rationale for the selection of the starting dose: The experimental protocol was established according to the official method as defined in the OECD guideline No. 423 dated December 17th, 2001 and the test method B.1tris of the Council regulation No. 440/2008. - Doses:
- 2000 mg/kg bw
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 6 females/dose (3 females for the Step 1 and 3 females for the Step 2)
- Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- - Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days.
- Frequency of observations: Systematic examinations were carried out daily to identify any behavioural or toxic effects on the major physiological functions 30 min, 1h, 3h, 4h, 24h, 48h after administration of the test item and continued daily during 14 days. Clinical observations and mortality were recorded every day for 14 days.
- Frequency of weighing: D0 (just before administering the test item) then on D2, D7, and D14.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: Yes; On day 14, the animals were euthanized with sodium pentobarbital (Dolethal®).
- Other examinations performed: Macroscopic observations were entered on individual autopsy sheets. Only those organs likely to be modified in cases of acute toxicity were examined. Those presenting macroscopic anomalies can be removed and preserved in view to microscopic examinations. - Statistics:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- Under the test conditions, the oral LD50 of the test substance, Dimethyl Azelate, is higher than 2000 mg/kg bw in female rats. In accordance with the OECD guideline No. 423, the LD50 cut-off of the test item may be considered to be higher than 5000 mg/kg body weight by oral route in the rat. Therefore, the test substance, Dimethyl Azelate, is not classified for acute oral toxicity according to the criteria of the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) N°1272/2008 (CLP) and to the GHS. Furtheremore, the absence of adverse effect is consistent with this classification.
- Executive summary:
An acute oral toxicity study was performed according to OECD Guideline No. 423 and EU Method B.1 tris (acute toxic class method) and in compliance with GLP.
One group of three female Sprague Dawley rats received a single oral gavage dose of the test substance at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. As results at this dose level indicated the acute lethal oral dose of the test substance to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw, in compliance with the study guidelines, a further group of three females was similarly dosed at 2000 mg/kg bw to complete the study. Animals were then observed for mortality, clinical signs and body weights for 14 days and were all sacrificed for macroscopic examination.
There were no deaths during the study. No clinical signs were observed during the study except an increase of salivation (2/6) noted 30 minutes after treatment which completely recovers after 1 hour post-dose. The body weight evolution of the animals remained normal throughout the study. The macroscopic examination of the animals at the end of the study did not reveal treatment related changes.
Under the test conditions, the oral LD50 of the test substance, Dimethyl Azelate, is higher than 2000 mg/kg bw in female rats. In accordance with the OECD guideline No. 423, the LD50 cut-off of the test item may be considered to be higher than 5000 mg/kg body weight by oral route in the rat. Therefore, the test substance, Dimethyl Azelate, is not classified for acute oral toxicity according to the criteria of the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) N°1272/2008 (CLP) and to the GHS. Furtheremore, the absence of adverse effect is consistent with this classification.
This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for acute oral toxicity endpoint.
