Description of key information
Male and female Wistar rats were subjected to test acute oral toxicity. The test substance was administered by gavage at the limit dose of 5000 mg/kg bw (corresponding to 3550 mg submission substance/kg bw). No animal died under these conditions, resulting in a LD50 > 5000 mg/kg bw (corresponding to > 3550 mg submission substance/kg bw).
The submission substance has not to be classified for acute oral toxicity according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.

They were exposed to 4250 mg test substance per cubic meter for 4 h (maximal applicable dose). All animals survived the 14 day observation period. No macroscopic visible changes were observed at necropsy at the end of the observation period, resulting in a LC50 value of > 4250 mg/m³ (4.25 mg/L) for the inhalation of aerosol.
Classification for acute inhalation toxicity is not necessary according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 .

- Exp. duration:
- 4 h
- Remarks on result:
- other: no animals died within the 14 day observation period
- Mortality:
- - no death occurred
- Clinical signs:
- other: - within 3 to 4 hours after starting the exposure period rats showed dyspnoea, curved or ventral position and ruffled fur - recovery within 4 days
- Gross pathology:
- - no macroscopically visible changes were found
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- Exposure of male and female rats to 4250 mg/m³ test item for 4 hours did not result in the death of the animals during a 14 day observation period, resulting in a LC50 value of > 4250 mg/m³.

- The test item was not toxic to male and female Sprague-Dawley rats after dermal application, resulting in a dermal LD50 > 3000 mg/kg bw (corresponding to > 1710 mg PY13/kg bw).
The test was performed with the test item which contains relevant amounts of the submission substance. Therefore, the test results are considered adequate to fulfil the endpoint requirements. - Executive summary:
Acute dermal toxicity of the test item was tested in male and female Sprague-Dawley rats. The maximal applicable dose (3 g test item /kg bw suspended in polyethylene glycol:water 50:50 - final volume 9.9 ml; corresponding to 1710 mg PY13/kg bw) were applied to the skin. No clinical signs were observed and no animals died during the 7 day observation period, resulting in a LD50 > 3000 mg/kg bw (corresponding to > 1710 mg PY13/kg bw).

Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the reported study data Pigment Yellow 176 has not to be classified for acute toxicity.
Furthermore, Pigment Yellow 176 has not to be classified for specific target organ toxicity – single exposure according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, as no specific toxic effects were observed after acute exposure.
