Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- practically nontoxic
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: expert judgment
- Conclusions:
- The median lethal concentration (LC50) of Octopirox after inhalation exposure is estimated to be equal-to-or-greater-than 4.9 mg/L
- Executive summary:
Three groups of 5 male and 5 female Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to a dust aerosol atmosphere of Octopirox at actual concentrations of 4.4 / 4.9 or 2.0 mg/l. The equivalent aerodynamic diameters of the test material aerosols were 10 microns for the 4.4 mg/l exposure group, 4.4 microns for the 4.9 mg/l exposure group and 4.2 microns for the 2.0 mg/l exposure group. One male and three females from the 4.9 mg/l group died either during the exposure or within 24 hours post-exposure. A high incidence of labored breathing and gasping was noted in the two groups exposed to the smaller particle size. Body weight gain was depressed except for females exposed to 2.0 mg/l. Macroscopic abnormalities observed at necropsy, white material in the trachea, gas filled intestines, red mottled lungs and dark kidneys, were only observed in those animals which died on study. No exposure related abnormalities were noted in those animals surviving 14 days. Based on this study the LC50 was estimated to be equal-to-or-greater-than 4.9 mg/l.
