Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified.
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU. According to GHS criteria the test item could be classified in the Category 5 or as " GHS criteria not met", further information is needed regarding acute oral toxicity taking 5000mg/kg bw
Conclusions:
The result was as follows: LD50 >2000 mg/kg bw
Executive summary:

The aim of the test was to study the single dose oral toxicity of the test material according to OECD Test Guideline 423.

The test material was studied in 6 female rats (2 groups with 3 female rats per group) in a single dose oral toxicity test at 2000 mg/kg bw. On observation for general signs, only bluish feces, derived from the color of the test material, were noted. The result was as follows: LD50 >2000 mg/kg bw
