- Executive summary:
This test using the procedures outlined in the QPS Taiwan Study Plan for T65315003-GN which is based on the SOP for the OECD 423 (OECD, 2002). A total of 6 female Sprague-Dawley rats were orally dosed with CJ304 in two dose steps of three animals each, at 2000 mg/kg b.w. for both Dose Step 1 and Dose Step 2. All animals in the two dose steps tolerated the test article well with increasing body weights and no mortality or moribundity reported. The only remarkable clinical signs observed were pilo-erection, excretion of blue colored urine, and excretion of blue colored and watery feces within the first week post dose. For one animal in Dose Step 1, transient general weakness and abnormally colored mucus membrane (blue) was also observed and gross examination revealed dark brown discoloration of the kidneys. In absence of mortality, moribund state, or other significant clinical signs of toxicity, these results place CJ304 in the GHS Category 5 or Unclassified, with harmonized LD50 cut-off value at 5,000 mg/kg or Unclassified.
Reference
Respectively, the mortalities andclinical observations in Dose Step 1 and 2 as below:
In Dose Step 1
No mortality occurred within the first three dayspost-dose. All dose animals tolerated the dose well and survived to termination on Day 15. For one animal (ID No. 0014), pilo-erection was noted for three days post dose and then mild general weakness and abnormally colored mucus membrane (blue) were also noted on Day 1 through Day 3. All study animals were seen to excrete blue colored feces for the first seven days post dose. Two animals (ID No. 0013 and 0014) were also seen to excrete blue colored urine and the signs then persisted through the first three to five days post dose. Blue stained hair over the ano-genital area, forelimbs, forepaws, hindpaws, and/or head was noted on Day 1 through Day 7.
In Dose Step 2
All dose animals tolerated the dose well and survived to termination on Day 15. Pilo-erection was noted on two animal (ID No. 0016 and 0018) for two days post dose. All study animals were seen to excrete blue colored feces for the first three days post dose. All animals were also seen to excrete blue colored urine and the signs then persisted on the first three days post dose. Blue stained hair over the ano-genital area, forelimbs, forepaws, hindpaws, and/or head was noted on Day 1 through Day 7. There were no records of animal observations on Day 12 and Day 13.
In Dose Step 1 and 2, body weights increased throughout the study period. And gross examination at termination revealed diffused, dark brown discoloration in both kidneys of one animal (ID No. 0014). No other remarkable changes or lesions were noted in the remaining study animals.
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Value:
- 5 000 mg/kg bw
Acute toxicity: via inhalation route
Link to relevant study records
- Endpoint:
- acute toxicity: inhalation
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because exposure of humans via inhalation is not likely taking into account the vapour pressure of the substance and/or the possibility of exposure to aerosols, particles or droplets of an inhalable size

- Mortality:
- No mortality reported
- Clinical signs:
- other: Other than discolouration, no clinical signs
- Gross pathology:
- No adverse systemic effects reported.
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- Based on reliable review of literature and assessment of similar anthraquinone dyes.
No further animal testing is justified. - Executive summary:
From assessment of similar dyes, none are noted as being acutely toxic and there is no evidence of dermal absorption. From various data sources, it is considered unlikely that the substance will be acutely toxic by the dermal route. All anthraquinone dyes reviewed have acute toxicity discriminating dose > 2000 mg/kg and the similar substances reviewed fall into this category.
The impact of lithium is not likely to impact on the toxicity when comparing with sodium salts as dermal toxicity of lithium substances are reported to be low and in view of the minimal % w/w content of lithium, this is not significant in the classification of toxicity.
Studies on guinea pigs and rabbits for sensitising and irritancy assessment have not revealed any evidence of adverse systemic effects. Only the maximised sensitising studies (ie injected) appear to give positive results, confirming low levels of dermal absorption. Discolouration of skin will occur and the colour is difficult to wash off.
It is not considered justifiable to perform further acute dermal toxicity testing on CJ304 in view of the similarity with other dyes assessed in this report. It should also be noted that some other registrations have indicated waivers for this endpoint.

Additional information
Acute toxicity: via oral route
A total of 6 female Sprague-Dawley rats were orally dosed with CJ304 in two dose steps of three animals each, at 2000 mg/kg b.w. for both Dose Step 1 and Dose Step 2. All animals in the two dose steps tolerated the test article well with increasing body weights and no mortality or moribundity reported. The only remarkable clinical signs observed were pilo-erection, excretion of blue colored urine, and excretion of blue colored and watery feces within the first week post dose. For one animal in Dose Step 1, transient general weakness and abnormally colored mucus membrane (blue) was also observed and gross examination revealed dark brown discoloration of the kidneys. In absence of mortality, moribund state, or other significant clinical signs of toxicity, these results place CJ304 in the GHS Category 5 or Unclassified, with harmonized LD50 cut-off value at 5,000 mg/kg or Unclassified.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – inhalation endpoint
Based on Column 2 of the table given in REACH Annex VIII, the study on acute inhalation toxicity only needs to be conducted if an exposure via inhalation is to be expected, based on vapour pressure and/or the likelihood of an exposure to aerosols, particles or droplets. Referring to the very low vapour pressure of the substance, the fact that the substance is imported into the EU in a formulated form as a dust-free powder or as a granulate, the inhalation route of exposure is considered to be unlikely, thus the study on acute inhalation toxicity is being waived.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint
Further analysis of our substance does not indicate any harm upon oral exposure and neither the chemical structure of the substance nor any toxicokinetic results raise any concern about the toxic behavior of the substance upon dermal absorption, we will not perform any test on this endpoint in in vitro or in vivo test systems.
