oral: gavage
Vehicle:
not specified
Doses:

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 5 000 mg/kg bw
Mortality:
No mortality
Clinical signs:
other: No abnormality observed

Any other information on results incl. tables

Single administration of the test substance at 5000 mg/kg bw to female mice had no effects on clinical signs, viability or body weight change in the observation period of 6 days. Although there was a short observation time, the lack of any symptomes within this time gave evidence, that the test substance has not to be classified according to DSD and CLP.
