- Details on inhalation exposure:
- GENERATION OF TEST ATMOSPHERE / CHAMBER DESCRIPTION
- Exposure apparatus: Stainless-steel and glass cylinder, standing in a vent pipe with a volume of approx. 4 m³. The chambers have proved to yield a uniform distribution of aerosols at the different breathing zones of the animals.
- Exposure chamber volume: 60 L
- Method of holding animals in test chamber: individually in cylindrical plastic cages
- Source and rate of air: air was pumped at a pressure of 4 bar into a special nozzle with a welded-in supply tube for the test substance. The air supply at the nozzle was maintained at 800 L/h by means of an air-calibrated rotameter (Rota, Wehr). A suction device at the bottom of the exposure chamber drew off the aerosol at a rate of 1100 L/h through a cotton-wool filter, a Buehler filter, a washing flask filled with 10% sodium hydroxide solution and a calcium chloride flask. The difference in rate between the introduction of air at 800 L/h through the nozzle and its extraction at 1100 L/h is necessary to maintain the kinetic energy of the aerosol particles and to ensure a laminar flow of the aerosol from the top to the bottom of the exposure chamber.
- Method of conditioning air: passing through an oil separation filter and an absolute filter. In order to ensure the higher atmospheric humidity required by the current guidelines, air was passed via a porous stone at a rate of 100 L/h through a 1000 ml vacuum filter flask filled with water. The moisturised air was then conducted straight into the exposure chamber.
- System of generating particulates/aerosols: Hoe 107892 00 ZC97 0001 was injected into a nozzle at a constant speed by means of a continuous infusion apparatus. The primary aerosol was formed in a separator. Smaller aerosol particles (secondary aerosol) passed through a rising tube into the exposure chamber.
- Method of particle size determination:
- Treatment of exhaust air: Particles of test substance escaping from the exposure chamber into the vent pipe were drawn off and neutralised by gas-cleaning equipment.
- Temperature, humidity, pressure in air chamber: 20 - 22°C, 58.6 - 63.7%, no data on pressure
TEST ATMOSPHERE
- Brief description of analytical method used: Gravimetric analysis of the aerosol-concentration in the breathing zone of the animals was performed at intervalls of about 15 minutes. For this purpose, the test atmosphere was drawn off through a rotary gas counter, then through a glass fiber filter and a membrane filter with a pore width of 0.65 µm. The extraction rate was 3 L/minute, resulting in a flow rate of 1.25 m/sec. Before use, the filters were stored in an exsiccator filled with calcium chloride for 24 hours. The filters were weighed before and after sampling by means of an electronic balance. In order to determine the exact quantity of Hoe 107892 00 ZC97 0001 in the exposure chamber, chemical-analytical examinations were carried out. For this purpose, 31 L were drawn from the inhalation chamber over a period of 60 minutes and passed successively through three gas-washing flasks filled with Acetonitril and kept standing in a cold bath. Sampling was carried out within the breathing zone of the animals. Additionally two of the filters used for gravimetric measurements were floated with 30 ml Acetonitril and also analysed. Hoe 107892 00 ZC97 0001 was isolated by HPLC and determined spectrophotometrically.
Determination of the aerosol particle size distribution was performed with an Anderson 7 stage cascade impactor (Model Mark III, Anderson Samples Inc., Atlanta, U.S.A.). The test atmosphere was impacted at each stage onto steel discs which were weighed before and after sampling. Sampling was performed at a volume rate of 9.5 L/minute, resulting in a flow velocity of 1.25 m/s. Mass median aerodynamic diameter, standard deviation and other parameters of the particle size distribution were calculated using linear regression (probit values versus the logarithm of the particle size).

- Justification of choice of vehicle: substance could not be dispersed in its original form, stability and homogeneity of the solution for a period of 6 hours was verified before start of the study.

Additional information
Acute oral toxicity
There are 2 acute oral toxicity GLP guideline studies avilable, one in rat and mouse each. Both were designed as limit tests with administration of a single dose of 5000 mg/kg bw. No mortality occurred during the course of the studies. Clinical signs comprised decreased spontaneous activity, retracted flanks, squatting posture, increased or irregular respiration, stilted gait and swollen abdomen, but not all animals were concerned, and in rats the symptoms were limited to the males. Clinical signs emerged immediately or shortly after administration and persisted in some cases up to day 4 (rats) or 5 (mice) of the observation period. There was no effect on body weight gains, and the animals did not show any macroscopically visible changes at necropsy.
Acute dermal toxicity
Acute dermal toxicity was tested in rats in a limit test, in which a single dose of 4000 mg/kg bw was applied to the skin under occlusive dressing for 24 hours. No mortality occurred during the course of the study. Clinical signs comprised irregular breathing and squatting position in almost all animals and to a smaller extent reduced spontaneous activity and increased fright reaction. There was no effect on body weight gains, and the animals were free of macroscopically visible changes at necropsy.
Acute inhalation toxicity
Acute toxicity by inhalation was addressed in a single study in rats in which an aerosol of the test substance was administered for 4 h at the highest technically administrable concentration of 1.32 mg/L. No mortality occurred during the course of the study. Clinical signs were comparable to oral administration, comprising irregular breathing, stilted, uncoordinated, ataxic gait and squatting posture, which were reversible by day 7. Remarkably, the animals of the control group demonstrated similar symptoms which abated by day 3, therefore, the symptoms seemed to be related to exposure itself. Body weight development was not impaired, and the animals demonstrated no macroscopically visible abnormalities at necropsy.
Taken together, the test substance-related findings were comparable regardless of the route of application, and no mortality occurred either after a single administration of doses up to 4000 and 5000 mg/kg bw, respectively, nor inhalation of 1.32 mg/L (the highest technically administrable dose) for 4 hours.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The available data on acute oral, dermal and inhalation toxicity do not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification.
