Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: practically nontoxic
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
based on the acute oral toxicity study, the median lethal dose (LD50) of the test substance after single oral administration to male and female Wistar rats observed over a period of 14 days is over 5000 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

A study was performed to determine the acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test

material, administered once per oral gavage as a solution in 12.5% sesame oil in Wistar rat. The

method used followed that described in the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals (1981) No.

401 "Acute Oral Toxicity" referenced as EU Method B.1 (Acute Toxicity (Oral)).

Ten fasted animals (five per sex) were given a single oral dose of test material at the dose level of

5000 mg/kg bw. No mortality occurred. Immediate after application of the test substance the

following signs of toxicity as hypoactivity, crouch and scrubby fur were observed. No clinical

signs were observed the day after the treatment and during the observation period of 14 days. No

effect on body weight development was observed. At the end of the observation period all rats

were sacrificed with CO2 gas. Gross pathological examination dit not reveal any alteration.

Based on the results of above mentioned study the median lethal dose (LD50) of the test

substance after single oral administration to male and female rats, observed over a period of 14

days is 5000 mg/kg bw.
