Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The acute oral LD50 of the test article in rats of both sexes observed over a period of 14 days is greater than 3000 mg/kg body weight.
Executive summary:

In an oral toxicity study similar to OECD guideline 401, five male and five female rats were dosed once with the test article in PEG400 by gastric intubation at a dose level of 3000 mg/kg body weight and observed for 14 days. Animals were subjected to daily observations and weekly determination of body weight. Macroscopic examination was performed after terminal sacrifice. No mortalities were recorded. Slight sedation, slight dyspnoea, slight curved body position and slight to moderate ruffled fur was observed after administration of the test material. The animals recovered within 7 days. The body weight gain shown by the animals over the study period was considered to be normal. No abnormalities were found at macroscopic post mortem examination of the animals. The oral LD50 value of the test article in Wistar rats was established to exceed 3000 mg/kg body weight.
