Additional information

The key acute oral toxicity study for the submission substance, conducted according to an appropriate OECD test guideline and in compliance with GLP, reported an LD50 value of greater than 2000 mg/kg bw (RCC, 2004).

Following single oral gavage administration of 2000 mg/kg bw test substance in corn oil to female rats, no mortality was observed in any of the test animals during the 14-day study period. Slightly ruffled fur was noted in two animals at 1-hour reading and persisted up to 3-hour reading in one animal. The body weight of the animals was within the range commonly recorded for this strain and age. No macroscopic findings were recorded at necropsy.

The key acute dermal toxicity study for the submission substance, conducted according to an appropriate OECD test guideline and in compliance with GLP, reported an LD50 value of greater than 2000 mg/kg bw (RCC, 2004).

Following single dermal application of 2000 mg/kg bw undiluted test substance to male and female rats for 24 hours under semi-occlusive dressing, no mortality was observed in any of the test animals during the 15-day study period. No systemic signs of toxicity were observed in any of the test animals. Slight crusts were noted in one female animal on test days 14 and 15. The body weight of the animals was within the range commonly recorded for this strain and age. No macroscopic findings were recorded at necropsy.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the available data for the submission substance, no classification is required for acute toxicity according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
