Description of key information
Acute oral toxicity:
The acute oral toxicity dose (LD50) was considered based on different studies conducted on rats for the test chemical. The LD50 value is between the range 300-2000 mg/kg bw, for acute oral toxicity. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical is classified in category 4 for acute oral toxicity.
Acute Inhalation Toxicity:
The acute inhalation toxicity study need not be conducted because exposure to humans via inhalation route is not likely taking into account due to the low vapour pressure of the test chemical, which is reported to be 1.88E-9 mm Hg. Thus, exposure to inhalable dust, mist and vapour of the chemical is highly unlikely. Therefore this study is considered for waiver.
Acute Dermal toxicity:
The acute dermal toxicity dose (LD50) was considered based on different studies conducted on rats and rabbits for the test chemical. The studies concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw, for acute dermal toxicity. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute dermal toxicity.

- Executive summary:
In different studies, the given test chemical has been investigated for acute dermal toxicity to a greater or lesser extent. Often are the studies based on in-vivo experiments in rodents, i.e. most commonly in rats and rabbits for test chemical. The studies are summarized as below –
1)Acute dermal toxicity study of test chemical was conducted on rabbits at the dose concentration of 4000 mg/kg bw. The test chemical was administered dermally. All animals were maintained under close observation for recording toxic signs and time of death . Therefore, LD50 value was considered to be >4000 mg/kg bw, when rabbits were treated with test chemical via dermal application.
2)The study now reported was designed and conducted to determine the acute dermal toxicity profile of test chemical in Sprague Dawley rats.
The test item was applied to shorn skin of 5 male and 5 female animals at 2000 mg/kg body weight. Administration of the test item at 2000 mg/kg did not result in any skin reaction at the site of application during the study period of 14 days. Administration of the test item did not result in any signs of toxicity and mortality during the study period of 14 days.
Animals exhibited normal body weight gain through the study period of 14 days.
Gross pathological examination did not reveal any abnormalities attributable to the treatment.
It was concluded that the acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of test chemical, when administered to male and female Sprague Dawley rats was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg body weight.Thus, according to CLP criteria for acute toxicity rating for the chemicals, it infers that test chemical does not classify as an acute dermal toxicant.
Thus, based on the above summarised studies on test chemical, it can be concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute dermal toxicity.

Acute oral toxicity:
In different studies, the given test chemical has been investigated for acute oral toxicity to a greater or lesser extent. Often are the studies based on in-vivo experiments in rodents, i.e. most commonly in rats for test chemical. The studies are summarized as below –
1. Based on the QSAR prediction done using the Danish (Q)SAR Database, the acute oral toxicity was estimated for with test chemical. The LD50 was estimated to be 490 mg/kg bw with Reliability Index 0.57 (0.5-0.75 = moderate prediction quality), when rats were treated with test material via oral route.
2. Acute oral toxicity study of test chemical was conducted on rats at the dose concentration of 1000 mg/kg bw. The test chemical was administered via oral route. All animals were maintained under close observation for recording toxic signs and time of death . Therefore, LD50 value was considered to be 1000 mg/kg bw, when rats were treated with test chemical via oral route.
3. Acute oral toxicity study of test chemical was conducted on rats at the dose concentration of 900 mg/kg bw. The test chemical was administered via oral route. All animals were maintained under close observation for recording toxic signs and time of death for 14 days. Clinical signs of Liver damage, functional disturbances to the kidneys, effects to the CNS and cardiovascular disturbances were observed during the 14 days study. Therefore, LD50 value was considered to be 900 mg/kg bw, when rats were treated with test chemical via oral route.
Thus, based on the above summarized studies on test chemical, it can be concluded that LD50 value is in the range 300-2000 mg/kg bw. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical can be classified as category 4 for acute oral toxicity.

Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the above studies on test chemical, it can be concluded that LD50 value is between the range 300-2000 mg/kg bw for acute oral toxicity and >2000 mg/kg bw for acute dermal toxicity. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical is classified as Category 4 for acute oral toxicity and not classified for acute dermal toxicity. For acute inhalation toxicity wavier was added so, not possible to classify.
