Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 5 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Acute oral toxicity study was done in rat using sulfoacetic acid (123-43-3). LD50 was considered to be 3160 mg/kg body weight.
Executive summary:

Acute oral toxicity test was performed in Sherman rats and observed for 14 days. No fasting of rats was done before experiment. 5 animals per dose were given dose by gavage and LD50 was derived from the course of the curve mortality versus log of the Dose graphically determined. After the experiment, the LD 50 value for sulfoacetic acid (123-43-3) was considered to be 3160 mg/kg.

Based on the value, sulfoacetic acid was considered to be non-toxic to rats and can be considered to be “not classified”as per the CLP regulations.
