Executive summary:

The acute oral toxicity of sec-alkane sulfonate-sodium salts SAS (93%) was investigated in rats using water as vehicle. 5 male and 5 female rats per dose group were administered the test compound by single-dose gavage at dose levels of 500 or 2000 mg/kg body weight. The observation period was 14 days. After administration of 2000 mg/kg body weight all animals died within 24 hours p.a. Fatal intoxicated animals showed the following symptoms: bristled coat, squatting posture, stilted gait, irregular respiration and decreased spontaneous activity. At necropsy the following findings were revealed: stomach full of reddish-black mass (haemoccult positiv), intestinal tract filled with reddish mucous (haemoccult positv), lungs partly filled with blood. After administration of 500 mg/kg body weight no mortalities occurred. Unspecific clinical symptoms (bristled coat, squatting posture, stilted gait) were present up to 24 hours p.a. No clinical symptoms were observed from day 1 until the end of the observation period. Based on the findings of this limit-test the median lethal dosage (LD50) of sec-alkane sulfonate-sodium salts SAS (93%) in rats is between 500 and 2000 mg/kg body weight.
