not classified
Remarks:
Migrated informationCriteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
NOAEL-5d/1x/d mouse TFI: 10% (w/v) = 100 g/L as Aluminium sulfateCalculated for KAl(SO4)2: NOAEL: 13.25 % (w/v) = 132.5 g/L as KAl(SO4)2.The estimated LD50 should be > 2000 mg/kg bw for Aluminium potassium bis sulphate.Therefore aluminium potassium bis sulphate is not classified according to EU Regulation 1272/2008and 286/2011 (2. ATP).
Executive summary:

NOAEL-5d/1x/d mouse TFI: 10% (w/v) = 100 g/L as Aluminium sulfate

Calculated for KAl(SO4)2:

NOAEL: 13.25 % (w/v) = 132.5 g/L as KAl(SO4)2.

The estimated LD50 should be > 2000 mg/kg bw for Aluminium potassium bis sulphate.

Therefore aluminium potassium bis sulphate is not classified according to EU Regulation 1272/2008

and 286/2011 (2. ATP).
