GENERATION OF TEST ATMOSPHERE / CHAMBER DESCRIPTION
- Exposure apparatus: Consisted of a SAG 410 Solid Aerosol Generator (TOPAS GmbH, Dresden, Germany) located adjacent to the exposure chamber

- Exposure chamber volume: The cylindrical exposure chamber had a volume of approximately 30 litres (dimensions: 28 cm diameter x 50 cm high).

- Method of holding animals in test chamber: Each rat was individually held in a tapered, polycarbonate restraining tube fitted onto a single tier of the exposure chamber and sealed by means of a rubber 'O' ring. Only the nose of each animal was exposed to the test atmosphere

- Source and rate of air: The SAG 410 was connected to a meter compressed air supply.

- Method of conditioning air: Homogeneity of the test atmosphere within the chamber was not specifically determined during the study. Chambers of the same design (ADG Developments Ltd, Hitchin, Herts, UK) have been fully validated and shown to produce evenly distributed atmospheres in the animals breathing zone with a wide variety of test materials (Green J D et al, 1984).

- System of generating particulates/aerosols: A dust atmosphere was produced from the test material using a SAG 410 Solid Aerosol Generator (TOPAS GmbH, Dresden, Germany). A particulate separator was introduced before the aerosol entered the exposure chamber in order to remove large particles and thereby increase the inhalable portion of the generated aerosol.

- Method of particle size determination: The particle size of the generated atmosphere inside the exposure chamber was determined three times during the exposure period using a Marple Personal Cascade Impactor (Westech IS Ltd, Beds., UK). This device consisted of six impactor stages (8.2, 5.7, 2.9, 1.4, 0.85 and 0.37 µm cut points) with stainless steel collection substrates and a back up glass fibre filter, housed in an aluminium sampler. The sampler was temporarily sealed in a sampling port in the animals' breathing zone and a suitable, known volume of exposure chamber air was drawn through it using a vacuum pump. The collection substrates and backup filter were weighed before and after sampling and the weight of test material, collected at each stage, calculated by difference. The mean amount for each stage was used to determine the cumulative amount below each cut-off point size. In this way, the proportion (%) of aerosol less than 8.2, 5.7, 2.9, 1.4, 0.85 and 0.37 µm was calculated.

- Treatment of exhaust air: The extract from the exposure chamber passed through a 'scrubber' trap and was connected with a high efficiency filter to a metered exhaust system.

- Temperature, humidity, pressure in air chamber: The temperature and relative humidity inside the exposure chamber were measured by an electronic thermometer/ humidity meter (Hanna Instruments Ltd, Beds., UK) located in a vacent port in the animals' breathing zone of the chamber and recorded every thirty minutes throughout the four-hour exposure period. Oxygen levels within the exposure chamber were measured by an electronic oxygen analyser (Servomex (UK) Ltd, Crowborough, East Sussex) located in a vacant port in the animals' breathing zone of the chamber and recorded every thirty minutes through out the four-hour exposure period. The test atmosphere was generated to contain at least 19% oxygen.


TEST ATMOSPHERE
- Samples taken from breathing zone: yes. The actual chamber concentration was measured at regular intervals during the exposure period. The gravimetric method used glass fibre filters placed in a filter holder. The holder was temporarily sealed in a vacant port in the exposure chamber in the animals' breathing zone and a suitable, known volume of exposure chamber air was drawn through the filter using a vacuum pump.



TEST ATMOSPHERE
- Particle size distribution: The resulting values were converted to probits and plotted against Log10 cut-point size. From this plot, the Mass Median Aerodynamic Diameter (MMAD) was determined (as the 50% point) and the geometric standard deviation was calculated. In addition the proportion (%) of aerosol less than 4µm (considered to be the inhalable fraction) was determined. See table 2.

No. of animals per sex per dose:

Details on study design:

- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: All animals were observed for clinical signs at hourly intervals during exposure, immediately on removal from the restraining tubes at the end of exposure, one hour after termination of exposure and subsequently once daily for fourteen days. Any deaths or evidence of overt toxicity was recorded at each concentration. Individual bodyweights were recorded prior to treatment on the day of exposure and on Days 1, 3, 7 and 14.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes. At the end of the fourteen day observation period the surviving animals were killed by intravenous overdose of sodium pentobarbitone. All animals were subjected to a full external and internal examination, and any macroscopic abnormalities were recorded. The respiratory tract was subjected to a detailed macroscopic examination for signs of irritancy or local toxicity.

Statistics:

Data evaluations included the relationship, if any, between the animals' exposure to the test material and the incidence and severity of all abnormalities including behavioural and clinical observations, necropsy findings, bodyweight changes, mortality and any other toxicological effects.
Using the mortality data obtained, an estimate of the acute inhalation median lethal concentration (LC50) of the test material was made.

Body weight:

Individual bodyweights, together with weekly bodyweight changes, are given in table 9.
Variations in bodyweight gain are frequently seen for female animals of this strain and age during this type of study and, in isolation, are considered not to be significant.
All animals exhibited a slight bodyweight loss during the first three days post-exposure but recovered to show normal bodyweight development during the course of the study.

Gross pathology:

With the exception of one female animal, all animals exhibited dark patches on the lungs at necropsy

Interpretation of results:

study cannot be used for classification

Conclusions:

No deaths occurred in a group of six rats exposed to a mean achieved atmosphere concentration of 5.17 mg/L for four hours.
It was therefore considered that the acute inhalation median lethal concentration (4 hr LC50) of Mn3O4, in the HsdHan:WIST stain rat, was greater than 5.17 mg/L.

Executive summary:

The acute toxicity of the test material via the inhalatory route was investigated in a study which was conducted under GLP conditions and in accordance with the standardised guidelines OECD 403 and EU Method B.2.

Additional information

Oral

The acute oral toxicity of the test material was investigated in a study which was conducted under GLP conditions and in accordance with the standardised guidelines OECD 420 and EU Method B.1 bis.

The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the female Wistar rat was determined to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw under the conditions of the test.

Inhalation

The acute toxicity of the test material via the inhalatory route was investigated in a study which was conducted under GLP conditions and in accordance with the standardised guidelines OECD 403 and EU Method B.2.

No deaths occurred in a group of six rats exposed to a mean achieved atmosphere concentration of 5.17 mg/L for four hours.

It was therefore considered that the acute inhalation median lethal concentration (4 hr LC50) of Mn3O4, in the HsdHan:WIST stain rat, was greater than 5.17 mg/L.

Dermal

The physiochemical properties of Mn₃O₄ suggest it is unlikely to be absorbed through the skin. It is poorly water solubility and inorganic ions do not pass easily through the dermal barrier. In addition, Mn₃O₄ is not acutely toxic by the oral route and therefore it is highly unlikely that it would be toxic via the dermal route which in general absorbs chemicals to a much lesser degree than the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore in accordance with Annex VIII, section 8.5.3 column 2 adaptation, this test is not considered scientifically justified.

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
Only one study is available.

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – inhalation endpoint
Only one study is available.

Justification for classification or non-classification

In accordance with the criteria for classification as defined in Annex I, Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, the substance does not require classification with respect to acute toxicity.

In accordance with the criteria for classification as defined in Annex VI, Directive 67/548/EEC (DSD), the substance does not require classification with respect to acute toxicity.
