Any other information on results incl. tables

Under the test conditions, the test item1,2,4,5-tetramethyl-1H-imidazole,when administered by oral route in female rats, cause deaths, for every step taken at the dose levels of2000mg.Kg-1ofbody weight.In clinical examinations, the tested animals showsystemic signs of toxicity. In macroscopic evaluations noalterations were observed during the necropsies.Based on the flow chart with the starting dose of 2000 mg.Kg-1ofbody weight, the test item was classified as category 4 (>300-2000), according to the GHS (Globally Harmonized Classification System for Chemical Substances and Mixtures).The oral LD50value of test item1,2,4,5-tetramethyl-1H-imidazole,for female rats, was estimated in500 mg.Kg-1of body weight.
