- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- TEST ANIMALS
- Age at study initiation: 9 to 11 weeks
- Weight at study initiation: 168.85 to 173.49 g. The body weight variation of animals was minimal and did not exceed ± 20 % of the previously dosed animals.
- Fasting period before study: Yes. Animals were fasted overnight prior to dosing (16 to 18 hours). Access to water was not interrupted and the animals were fed immediately after dosing.
- Housing: Rats were housed individually in standard polysulfone cages (Size: approximately 425 mm long x 266 mm deep x 175 mm high), with stainless steel top grills having facilities for pelleted food and drinking water. Steam sterilised clean corn cob bedding was used and changed along with the cage twice weekly. The rats were provided with huts as environmental enrichment in each cage during the experimental period.
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): Standard rat and mouse pelleted maintenance diet was provided ad libitum
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): Deep bore-well water passed through activated charcoal filter and exposed to UV rays in a water filter-cum-purifier was provided to animals ad libitum in polycarbonate bottles with stainless steel sipper tubes. The water in the bottles was replenished once daily and the water bottles were changed once a week.
- Acclimation period: Five to fourteen days under standard laboratory conditions.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 20 to 24 °C
- Humidity (%): 65 to 67 % (relative)
- Air changes (per hr): 12 to 15 air changes/hour

IN-LIFE DATES: From: 10 May 2012 To: 7 June 2012
Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- other: 0.5 % w/v carboxymethyl cellulose sodium salt in Milli-Q water
- Details on oral exposure:
- VEHICLE
- Concentration in vehicle: 200 mg/mL as a suspension.
- Justification for choice of vehicle: 2.0 g of the test material was mixed with Milli-Q water and the volume made up to 10 mL. The test material was not miscible. With the addition of 0.5 % w/v carboxymethyl cellulose sodium salt in Milli-Q water, the test material formed a visibly homogenous suspension.
MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED: The volume administered was 10 mL/kg body weight.
DOSAGE PREPARATION: 2 g of test material was mixed by adding small quantities of 0.5 % w/v carboxymethyl cellulose sodium salt in Milli-Q water and the volume was made up to 10 mL. Homogeneity of the test material in the vehicle was maintained during treatment by constant stirring and mixing with a glass rod. Preparations were made prior (within one hour) to dosing.
CLASS METHOD (if applicable)
- Rationale for the selection of the starting dose: The limit value was selected as the starting dose. - Doses:
- 2000 mg/kg bw
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 5 females per dose
- Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- - Dosing schedule: Single animals were dosed in sequence. Each subsequent animal was dosed only after assessing the toxicity of the test material to the previously dosed animal.
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days following test material administration.
- Frequency of observations and weighing: The animals were observed five times on test day 1 (day of administration), at 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3 and 4 hours after dose administration and once daily during days 2 to 15. Individual body weights of animals were recorded on test day 1 (pre-administration), day 8 (7 days post administration) and day 15 (14 days post administration).
- Necropsy of survivors performed: Yes. All animals were necropsied at the end of the 14-day observation period; animals were sacrificed by exsanguination under isoflurane anaesthesia. Animals that died during the observation period were necropsied on the day of death. External surfaces of the body, all orifices, tissues and organs of the thoracic and abdominal cavities of all animals were examined. The stomach was opened, the contents rinsed / removed, and the mucosal surface was examined for signs of irritation, erosions and ulcers. All necropsy observations were recorded. - Statistics:
- Dose progression and stopping criteria was calculated using a dedicated software program (Acute Oral Toxicity (Guideline 425) Statistical Program) provided by the EPA.
Results and discussion
- Preliminary study:
- The limit test at 2000 mg/kg was initiated with one female rat. The first animal survived and there were no clinical signs of toxicity or mortality; hence four additional female rats were tested sequentially at the same dose.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this study, the acute oral LD50 was estimated to be >2000 mg/kg body weight in female Wistar strain rats and the test material requires no classification in accordance with EU criteria.
- Executive summary:
The acute oral toxicity potential of the test material to female Wistar strain rats was assessed in accordance with the standardised guidelines OECD 425 and US EPA OPPTS 870.1100 under GLP conditions.
The study was initiated with a limit test at 2000 mg/kg with one female rat. The test material was suspended in 0.5 %w/v carboxymethyl cellulose sodium salt in in Milli-Q water and administered as a single oral dose via gavage to fasted rats. The first animal survived; hence four additional animals were tested sequentially with the same dose.
Three out of the five animals tested showed clinical sings of toxicity such as lethargy and slight salivation on Day 1. Two rats died on Day 2.
As per the Acute Oral Toxicity Software Program (AOT425 StatPgm), the stopping criterion was met and the surviving rats were observed for 14 days post treatment. All the surviving animals had gained body weight during the 14 day observation period.
Rats that died during the observation period were necropsied on the day of death. All surviving animals were sacrificed as scheduled at the end of the observation period. There were no gross abnormalities detected in any of the rats at necropsy.
Under the conditions of this study, the acute oral LD50 was estimated to be >2000 mg/kg body weight in female Wistar strain rats and the test material requires no classification in accordance with EU criteria.
