Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Details on oral exposure:
- MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED:
10 mL/kg bodyweight.
Dose volume (mL/kg body weight) was calculated as follows: Dose level (g/kg) / spec.gravity.
DOSAGE PREPARATION:
- The test item was administered as received. Adjustment was made for specific gravity of the test item. No correction was made for the purity/composition of the test item.
- The test item was stirred continuously during dose administration.
CLASS METHOD
- Rationale for the selection of the starting dose: The dose levels were based on the OECD test guidelines and were selected from the series 5 (lowest dose level), 50, 300 and 2000 (highest dose level) mg/kg body weight. The starting dose level should be the one that is likely to produce mortality in at least some of the animals and was selected based on available toxicity data of the test item. - Doses:
- 2000 mg/kg (10 mL/kg) body weight
The study was conducted in a stepwise manner with two groups of 3 females. The first group was treated at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. Based on the results, one additional group was dosed at 2000 mg/kg bw. - No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 6 females/dose (2 groups of three females in a stepwise manner)
- Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- - Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: Mortality/Viability: twice daily; Body weights: on the day of dosing (fasted weight) and on days 1 (pre-administration), 8 and 15; Clinical signs: at periodic intervals on the day of dosing (day 1) and once daily thereafter
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes
- Other examinations performed: no - Statistics:
- The LD50 cut-off value was established based on OECD guideline 423. No statistical analysis was performed (the method used is not intended to allow the calculation of a precise LD50 value).
Results and discussion
Effect levels
- Key result
- Sex:
- female
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Effect level:
- > 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Mortality:
- No mortality occurred.
- Clinical signs:
- Hunched posture, piloerection and/or salivation were noted for the animals on day 1.
- Body weight:
- The body weight gain shown by the animals over the study period was considered to be similar to that expected for normal untreated animals of the same age and strain.
- Gross pathology:
- No abnormalities were found at macroscopic post mortem examination of the animals.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Remarks:
- Not classified according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008
- Conclusions:
- In an acute oral toxicity study with rats, performed according to OECD/EC test guidelines, an LD50 was established to exceed 2000 mg/kg bw. Based on the result obtained in this study, Tetrahydro-6propyl-2H-pyran-2-one (delta octalactone) does not need to be classified for acute toxicity under GHS and under Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
