Description of key information

Acute oral toxicity

The acute oral toxicity was determined in a standard acute toxicity study according to OECD 401 and EC B.1 on male and female Wistar rats.

In conclusion, the combined LD50 on Wistar rats was found to be 1901 mg/kg; the LD50 for males 1736 mg/kg and for females 2026 mg/kg.

Acute inhalation toxicity

Study was waived, because exposure of humans via inhalation is not likely taking into account vapor pressure and particle size of the substance. The test item is a solid at room temperature and usually handled as solid melt or in crystalline form. The content of inhalable particles of the crystalline material is very low. The particle size distribution of the crystalline material was found to be 125 - 500 μm. Less than 10% are <= 63 μm.

Acute dermal toxicity

An acute dermal toxicity study was performed with the test item in Crl:(WI)BR rats, in accordance with testing methods EC B.3 and OECD 402. Under the experimental conditions the acute dermal LD50 value of the test item LZ 596 proved to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in male and female Crl:(WI)BR rats.

Details on study design:
APPEARANCE, BEHAVIOUR AND GENERAL OBSERVATIONS:
All animals were observed for overt signs of toxicity or behavioural change at 0.25, 1, 2 and 4 hours after treatment and subsequently once daily for 14 days. All gross or visible toxic or pharmacological effects were recorded.

BODY WEIGHTS:
Individual body weights were recorded on the day before treatment (day -1), on the day of treatment, 7 and 14 days after treatment and at death.

NECROPSY:
All animals were subjected to a gross necropsy examination. No tissues were retained. Animals surviving the 14 day observation period were killed by
exposure to high levels of carbon dioxide.
Statistics:
The acute oral median lethal dose (LDso) for combined male and female groups were calculated using a probit analysis (Finney, D.J. (1964), Statistical Method for Biological Assay, 2nd Edition, London, Charles Griffin). Separate LDso values were calculated for male and female animals. The mortalities did not allow the calculation of 95% fiducial limits or the production of a dose response curve.
Preliminary study:
Mortalities occured at dose levels of 1250 (50%) and 5000 mg/kg (100%). No mortlaity was noted at 50 and 250 mg/kg. Clinical signs were not determined.

Major pathological findings in animals dying during the study were associated with the stomach, which appeared distended. The livers were often pale with a speckled appearance and pale kidneys were also noted. With the exception of 1 animal treated with 1000 mg/kg which had dark lungs, and 2 animals treated with 1680 mg/kg which had pale livers, no other abnormalities were noted in animals necropsied at the end of the study period.
Interpretation of results:
Category 4 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The combined LD50 on Wistar rats was found to be 1901 mg/kg; the LD50 for males 1736 mg/kg and for females 2026 mg/kg.
Executive summary:

The acute oral toxicity was determined in a standard acute toxicity study according to OECD 401 and EC B.1 on male and female Wistar rats. Vehicle was corn oil. The appropriate dose levels were determined in a screening test on one male and female each, using doses of 50, 250, 1250 and 5000 mg/kg. Based on the pretest results, doses of 1000, 1410, 1680, 2000 and 2830 mg/kg were applied to 5 males and 5 females per group in the main study. A total of 18 (11 male, 7 female) of the 50 animals died during the study period. All deaths were noted within 5 days after treatment. All animals treated with 1000 mg/kg appeared normal throughout the study period. All treated animals appeared normal during the day of dosing. Major signs of toxicity noted were lethargy and/or prostration, with occasional signs of piloerection, chromodacryorrhoea, hunched posture and staining around nose and mouth. With the exception of 1 animal treated with 1680 mg/kg all surviving animals showed body weight gains at the end of the study period. Animal 41 lost 36 g at termination. Major pathological findings in animals dying during the study were associated with the stomach, which appeared distended. The livers were often pale with a speckled appearance and pale kidneys were also noted. With the exception of 1 animal treated with 1000 mg/kg which had dark lungs, and 2 animals treated with 1680 mg/kg which had pale livers, no other abnormalities were noted in animals necropsied at the end of the study period.

In conclusion, the combined LD50 on Wistar rats was found to be 1901 mg/kg; the LD50 for males 1736 mg/kg and for females 2026 mg/kg.

Remarks:
The test substance was moistened sufficiently with water to ensure good contact with the skin.
Details on dermal exposure:
The back of animals was shaven (approximately 10 % area of the total body surface) 24 hours prior to the treatment. The test item was applied in a single 2000 mg/kg bw dose uniformly over the shaved skin throughout a 24-hour exposure period. Sterile gauze pads were placed on the skin of rats. These gauzes were kept in contact with the skin by a patch with adhesive hypoallergenic plaster. The entire trunk of the animal was wrapped with semi
occlusive plastic wrap for 24 hours. At the end of the 24-hour exposure period any residual test item was removed using body temperature water

Details on study design:
OBSERVATION:
A single administration was performed by dermal route and was followed by a 7-day observation period in preliminary study and 14-day observation period in main study.

MORTALITY:
Inspection for signs of morbidity and mortality were made twice daily at the beginning and end of the working day.

CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS:
Careful clinical observation was made at the following intervals: 1h, 5h after the treatment and once each day for 7 days thereafter in preliminary study and for 14 days thereafter in main study. Individual observations included the skin and fur, eyes and mucous membranes, and also respiratory, circulatory, autonomic and central nervous system, somatomotor activity and behaviour pattern as well. Particular attention was directed to the observation of tremors,
convulsions, salivation, diarrhoea, lethargy, sleep and coma.

BODY WEIGHTS:
The body weight was recorded on day 0 (shortly before the treatment) in preliminary study and on day 0 (just before the treatment), on day 7 and on day 15 with a precision of 1 g in main study.

PATHOLOGY:
At the end of the observation period all rats of main study were sacrificed under isofluran anaesthesia. After examination of the external appearance, the cranial, thoracic and abdominal cavities were opened and the appearance of the tissues and organs was observed, and any abnormality was recorded with details of its location, colour, shape and size. Animals of preliminary study were humanely sacrificed on Day 7.
Statistics:
no statistics perfomed
Preliminary study:
There were no deaths at 5, 50, 300 and 2000 mg/kg bw dose levels. Therefore, in the main test animals were administered the limit dose of 2000 mg/kg bw.

Mortality:
No mortality were observed over a 14-day period following a 24-hour dermal exposure to the test item in male and female rats.
Clinical signs:
other: No behavioural changes, symptoms of dermal irritation and corrosion or signs of systemic toxity were noted during the study.
Gross pathology:
All animals survived until the scheduled necropsy on Day 15. Pale coloured kidneys as an internal necropsy finding were found in one male.
Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the experimental conditions, the acute dermal LD50 value of the test item proved to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in male and female WISTAR rats.
Executive summary:

An acute dermal toxicity study was performed with the test item in Crl:(WI)BR rats, in accordance with testing methods EC B.3 and OECD 402. A limit test was carried out. Single groups of male and female animals (n=5 animals/sex) were exposed to the test item at 2000 mg/kg bw by dermal route. The test item was applied in original form and left in contact with the skin for 24 hours, followed by a 14-day observation period. No mortality occurred during the study. Neither male nor female animals treated at 2000 mg/kg bw showed behavioural changes and no signs of systemic toxicity were observed during the study. No signs of irritation and corrosion were noted. The body weight development was undisturbed in male animals and slight body weight loss was observed in two females on first week, but it could not be evaluated as a toxic effect of test item. No macroscopic alterations of organs referred to the systemic toxic effect of the test item were seen during necropsy.

Under the experimental conditions the acute dermal LD50 value of the test item LZ 596 proved to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in male and female Crl:(WI)BR rats.
