Additional information

Acute oral toxicity

In different studies, 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4) has been investigated for acute oral toxicity to a greater or lesser extent. Often are the studies based on in vivo experiments and estimated data in rodents, i.e. most commonly in rats for 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4).The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental studies.

In a prediction done by SSS (2017) using the OECD QSAR toolbox with log kow as the primary descriptor, the acute oral toxicity was estimated 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine.The LD50 was estimated to be 2775 mg/kg bw.When male wistar rats were exposed with 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4) orally.

In another experimental study given byU.S .National library of medicine (ChemID plusA TOXNET DATABASE.2017)on structurally similar read across substance 1 Nitrosopiperazine(5632-47-3). Acute oral toxicity study was done in rat using 1 Nitrosopiperazine(5632-47-3) by oral route. 50% mortality was observed at dose 5560mg/kg bw. Clinical signs like brain and coverings "changes in circulation (hemorrhage, thrombosis, etc.)", in liver fatty liver degeration and in lungs, thorax, or respiration acute pulmonary edema were observed in treated rats. Hence LD50 was considered to be2260mg/kg body weight. When rats were treated with 1 Nitrosopiperazine(5632-47-3) orally.

Also it is further supported by experimental study given in GESTIS substance database(institute for occupational safety and health of the German social accident insurance.2017)on structurally similar read across substance1-methylpiperazine (109-01-3).LD50 was considered to be 2560mg/kg body weight.When rats were treated with1-methylpiperazine (109-01-3)orally.

 

Thus, based on the above studies and predictions on 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4)and its read across substances, it can be concluded that LD50 value is 2775 mg/kg bw. Thus,comparing this value with the criteria of CLP 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4) can be “Not classified” for acute oral toxicity.

Acute dermal toxicity

In different studies, 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4) has been investigated for acute dermal toxicity to a greater or lesser extent. Often are the studies based on in vivo experiments and estimated data in rodents, i.e. most commonly in rabbits for 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4) The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental studies.

In a prediction done by SSS (2017) using the OECD QSAR toolbox with log kow as the primary descriptor, the acute dermal toxicity was estimated 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine.The LD50 was estimated to be 3227 mg/kg bw when male and female Crl:CD®BR rats were exposed with4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine on dermal application.

In another experimental study given by GESTIS substance database(institute for occupational safety and health of the German social accident insurance.2017)on structurally similar read across substance morpholine-4-carbaldehyde (4394-85-4).Acute dermal toxicity study was done in rabbit using morpholine-4-carbaldehyde (4394-85-4).No mortality was observed at dose 18300mg/kg bw .Hence LD50 was considered to be >18300mg/kg body weight on dermal application.

.Also it is further supported by experimental study givenU.S .National library of medicine (ChemID plusA TOXNET DATABASE.2017)on structurally similar read across substanceEthanol, 2.2’-(methylimino)bis- (MDEA) (105-59-9) , In dermal toxicity study,4 male New Zealand albino rabbits were treated with Ethanol, 2.2’-(methylimino)bis- (MDEA) in the concentration of 5990 mg/kg bw dermally. No mortality observed in treated rabbits. Therefore, LD50 was considered to be > 5990 mg/kg bw when 4 male New Zealand albino rabbits were treated with Ethanol, 2.2’-(methylimino)bis- (MDEA) (105-59-9) dermally.

Thus, based on the above studies and predictions on 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4) and its read across substances, it can be concluded that LD50 value is 3227 mg/kg bw. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4))can be “Not classified” for acute dermal toxicity.

 

 

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the above studies and predictions on 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4) and its read across substances, it can be concluded that LD50 value is 2775 mg/kg bw by oral route and 3227 mg/kg bw by dermal application. Thus,comparing this value with the criteria of CLP 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4) can be “Not classified” for acute toxicity.
