Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
LD50 was determined to be 4780 mg/kg bw when Carworth–Wistar rats were treated with Ethanol, 2.2’-(methylimino)bis- (MDEA) orally by gavage.
Executive summary:

In oral toxicity study,five Carworth–Wistar rats were treated with Ethanol, 2.2’-(methylimino)bis- (MDEA) in the concentration in a logarithmic series. 50 % mortality observed in treated rats at 4780 mg/kg bw. Therefore, LD50 was considered to be 4780 mg/kg bw when Carworth–Wistar rats were treated with Ethanol, 2.2’-(methylimino)bis- (MDEA) orally by gavage. This value indicates that the chemical is non toxic to rat and does not classify under Acute oral toxic category as per CLP regulation.
