Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
A single dose oral administration of Sodium surfactin to rats at the dose level of 2000 mg/kg body weight resulted in transient diarrhea and a supprression of body weight gain in both of males and females. No death occurred.
The LD50 value was considere to be above 2000 mg/kg body weight in males and females.
Executive summary:

A single dose oral administration of Sodium surfactin to rats at the dose level of 2000 mg/kg body weight resulted in transient diarrhea and a supprression of body weight gain in both of males and females. No death occurred.

The LD50 value was considere to be above 2000 mg/kg body weight in males and females.
