Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 4 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
LD50 was considered to be < 5000 mg/kg bw when male and female rats were treated with Carsonon N-10 (Poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), .alpha.-(4-nonylphenyl)-.omega.-hydroxy-, branched ) orally.
Executive summary:

In a acute oral toxicity study, male and female rats by using Carsonon N-10 (Poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), alpha-(4-nonylphenyl)-omega-hydroxy-, branched) in the concentration of 5000 mg/kg bw orally. All the treated male and female rats were dead at 5000 mg/lg bw. Therefore, LD50 was considered to be < 5000 mg/kg bw when male and female rats were treated with Carsonon N-10 (Poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), alpha-(4-nonylphenyl)-omega-hydroxy-, branched) orally.
