male/female

Dose descriptor:

LD50

Effect level:

> 2 000 mg/kg bw

Based on:

test mat.

Mortality:

No mortality observed in all exposed animals.

Clinical signs:

other: Diarrhea was observed 4 hours after exposure in male and female rats

Gross pathology:

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

practically nontoxic

Remarks:

Migrated information

Conclusions:

Under the conditions of this test, the LD50 was determined to be >2000 mg/kg bw.

Executive summary:

In an oral acute toxicity study performed similar to OECD 401, five Wistar rats per sex were exposed to 2000 mg/kg bw of the test substance dissolved in olive oil via oral gavage. After an observation period of 14 days the surviving animals were necropsied. Diarrhea was observed 4 hours after exposure. No mortality was observed. No pathologic findings were noted in sacrificed animals. The LD50 was determined to be > 2000 mg/kg bw.
