Additional information

In the key study for acute oral toxicity (according to OECD TG 423 ; GLP-compliant), a single dose of 2000 mg/kg bw of undiluted Santalene oil was administered by gavage to two test groups of three female Wistar rats each (BASF 2020; 10A0058/20X008). No mortality or clinical signs occurred at the end of the observation period of 14 days. All animals gained weight in a normal range throughout the study period and there were no macroscopic pathological findings in any animal sacrificed at the end of the observation period. Under the conditions of this study, the median lethal dose (LD50) of Santalene oil after oral administration was assessed to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in rats.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Classification, Labelling, and Packaging Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008

The available experimental test data are reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation 1272/2008. No mortality occurred in an oral toxicity study at the limit dose of 2000 mg/kg bw. As a result, the substance is not considered to be classified for acute oral toxicity under Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
