Description of key information
Summary of acute toxicity
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Acute toxicity: via oral route
Link to relevant study records
- Endpoint:
- acute toxicity: oral
- Type of information:
- migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 04 June 1996 to 26 June 1996
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: see 'Remark'
- Remarks:
- Study conducted to recent EU test guidance in compliance with GLP and reported with a GLP certificate. Read across is applicable based on the content of sodium ions. The presence of these is determined by the pH of the isolation of the dyestuff itself. Therefore the substance to be registered is deemed to be a mixture of free acid, mono and di sodium salts. Upon comparison of the NMR-Spectra of the substance to be registered and the read across chemical it is evident that the chemical shifts as well as the integrations are the same, hence it is difficult to quantify free acid, mono and di variants. The CAS number proposed for the substance to be registered covers the sodium element. The associated free acid has a unique CAS number; this is referenced in the substance identity, as does the disodium variant, which is also referenced.

- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- Male and female Sprague-Dawley CD strain rats supplied by Charles River (UK) Ltd., Margate, Kent, UK. were used. At the start of the main study the males weighed 155 to 167g, and the females 142 to 159g, and were five to eight weeks of age. After an acclimatisation period of at least five days the animals were selected at random and given a number unique within the study by indelible ink-marking on the tail and a number written on a cage card.
The animals were housed in groups of up to five by sex in solid-floor polypropylene cages furnished with woodflakes. With the exception of an overnight fast immediately before dosing and for approximately two hours after dosing, free access to mains drinking water and food (Rat and Mouse Expanded Diet No. 1, Special Diets Services Limited, Witham, Essex, UK) was allowed throughout the study.
The animal room was maintained at a temperature of 20 to 23⁰C and relative humidity of 48 to 58%. The rate of air exchange was approximately fifteen changes per hour and the lighting was controlled by a time switch to give twelve hours continuous light and twelve hours darkness. - Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- water
- Remarks:
- distilled
- Details on oral exposure:
- All animals were dosed once only by gavage using a metal cannula attached to a graduated syringe. The volume administered to each animal was calculated according to its fasted bodyweight at the time of dosing. The animals were observed for fourteen days after the day of dosing and were then killed and subjected to gross pathological examination.
- Doses:
- 2000 mg/kg
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- Males 5, Females 5
- Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- The animals were observed for deaths or overt signs of toxicity ½, 1, 2 and 4 hours after dosing and subsequently once daily for fourteen days.
Individual bodyweights were recorded prior to dosing on Day 0 and on Days 7 and 14.
At the end of the study the animals were killed by cervical dislocation and subjected to gross pathological examination. This consisted of an external examination and opening of the abdominal and thoracic cavities for examination of major organs. The appearance of any macroscopic abnormalities was recorded. No tissues were retained. - Statistics:
- Data evaluations included the relationship, if any, between the animals' exposure to the test material and the incidence and severity of ail abnormalities including behavioural and clinical observations, gross lesions, bodyweight changes, mortality and any other toxicological effects.
Using the mortality data obtained, an estimate of the acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material was made. - Sex:
- male/female
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Effect level:
- > 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Mortality:
- There were no deaths.
- Clinical signs:
- other: No signs of systemic toxicity were noted during the study.
- Gross pathology:
- No abnormalities were noted at necropsy
- Other findings:
- None reported.
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- Read across is applicable based on the content of sodium ions. The presence of these is determined by the pH of the isolation of the dyestuff itself. Therefore the substance to be registered is deemed to be a mixture of free acid, mono and di sodium salts. Upon comparison of the NMR-Spectra of the substance to be registered and the read across chemical it is evident that the chemical shifts as well as the integrations are the same, hence it is difficult to quantify free acid, mono and di variants. The CAS number proposed for the substance to be registered covers the sodium element. The associated free acid has a unique CAS number; this is referenced in the substance identity, as does the disodium variant, which is also referenced.
The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material, EVERZOL YELLOW GSP, in the Sprague-Dawley CD strain rat was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bodyweight. No symbol and risk phrase are required according to EU labelling regulations. - Executive summary:

A study was performed to assess the acute oral toxicity of the test material in the Sprague-Dawley CD strain rat. The method followed that in the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals No. 401 "Acute Oral Toxicity" (adopted 24 February 1987) and Method B1 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67/548/EEC). Study conducted in compliance with GLP and reported with a GLP certificate.
Following a range-finding study, a group of ten fasted animals (five males and five females) was given a single oral dose of test material as a suspension in distilled water at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bodyweight. The animals were observed for fourteen days after the day of dosing and were then killed and subjected to gross pathological examination.
There were no deaths. No signs of systemic toxicity were noted during the study.
All animals showed an expected gain in bodyweight during the study.
No abnormalities were noted at necropsy.
The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the Sprague-Dawley CD strain rat was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bodyweight. No symbol and risk phrase are required according to EU labelling regulations

- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- Five male and five female Sprague-Dawley CD strain rats supplied by Charles River (UK) Ltd, Margate, Kent were used. At the start of the study the males weighed 219 to 258g, and the females 204 to 221g, and were approximately ten to fourteen weeks old. After a minimum acclimatisation period of five days the animals were selected at random and given a number unique within the study by indelible ink-marking on the tail and a number written on a cage card.
The animals were housed in suspended polypropylene cages furnished with woodflakes. The animals were housed individually during the 24-hour exposure period and in groups of five, by sex, for the remainder of the study. Free access to mains drinking water and food (Rat and Mouse Expanded Diet No.1, Special Diets Services Limited, Witham, Essex, UK) was allowed throughout the study.
The animal room was maintained at a temperature of 19 to 24⁰C and relative humidity of 47 to 56%. The rate of air exchange was approximately fifteen changes per hour and the lighting was controlled by a time switch to give twelve hours continuous light and twelve hours darkness. - Type of coverage:
- semiocclusive
- Vehicle:
- water
- Remarks:
- distilled
- Details on dermal exposure:
- On the day before treatment the back and flanks of each animal were clipped free of hair using veterinary clippers.
The appropriate amount of the test material, as received, was applied uniformly to an area of shorn skin (approximating to 10% of the total body surface area) which had previously been moistened with distilled water. A piece of surgical gauze was placed over the treatment area and semi-occluded with a piece of self-adhesive bandage. The bandage was further secured with a piece of BLENDERM wrapped around each end. The animals were caged individually for the 24-hour exposure period. Shortly after dosing the dressings were examined to ensure that they were securely in place.
After the 24-hour contact period the bandage was carefully removed and the treated skin and surrounding hair wiped with cotton wool moistened with distilled water to remove any residual test material. The animals were returned to group housing for the remainder of the study period. - Duration of exposure:
- 24 h
- Doses:
- 2000 mg/kg
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- A group of five male and five female rats were treated with the test material
- Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- The animals were observed for deaths or overt signs of toxicity ½,1, 2 and 4 hours after dosing and subsequently once daily for fourteen days.
After removal of the dressings and subsequently once daily for fourteen days, the test sites were examined for evidence of primary irritation and scored according to the following scale from Draize J H (1977) "Dermal and Eye Toxicity Tests" In: Principles and Procedures for Evaluating the Toxicity of Household Substances, National Academy of Sciences, Washington DC. - Statistics:
- Data evaluations included the relationship, if any, between the animal's exposure to the test material and the incidence and severity of all abnormalities including behavioural and clinical observations, gross lesions, bodyweight changes, mortality and any other toxicological effects.
Using the mortality data obtained, an estimate of the acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material was made. - Sex:
- male/female
- Dose descriptor:

- Effect level:
- > 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Mortality:
- There were no deaths.
- Clinical signs:
- other: No signs of systemic toxicity were noted during the study.
- Gross pathology:
- No abnormalities were noted at necropsy.
- Other findings:
- Brown/orange-coloured staining of the treatment site was commonly noted during the study.
No signs of skin irritation were noted during the study. - Interpretation of results:
- not classified
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU

Study conducted in compliance with GLP and reported with a GLP certificate.
A group of ten animals (five males and five females) was given a single 24-hour, semi-occluded dermal application to intact skin at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bodyweight. The animals were observed for fourteen days after the day of treatment and were then killed for gross pathological examination.
There were no deaths. No signs of systemic toxicity or skin irritation were noted during the study.
All animals showed expected gain in bodyweight during the study.
No abnormalities were noted at necropsy.
The acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the Sprague-Dawley CD strain rat was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bodyweight. No symbol and risk phrase are required according to EU labelling regulations.

Additional information
In acute oral and dermal toxicity studies, groups of 5 Sprague Dawley rats per sex were exposed to a single dose of Reaktiv Gelb 201 at 2000 mg/kg body weight. Animals were then observed for 14 days. These experiments were limit tests; no mortalities were observed. No clinical signs were observed.
The acute oral and dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the Sprague-Dawley CD strain rat was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bodyweight. No symbol and risk phrase are required according to EU labelling regulations
The results are read across from the free acid form. Read across is applicable based on the content of sodium ions. The presence of these is determined by the pH of the isolation of the dyestuff itself. Therefore the substance to be registered is deemed to be a mixture of free acid, mono and di sodium salts. Upon comparison of the NMR-Spectra of the substance to be registered and the read across chemical it is evident that the chemical shifts as well as the integrations are the same, hence it is difficult to quantify free acid, mono and di variants. The CAS number proposed for the substance to be registered covers the sodium element. The associated free acid has a unique CAS number; this is referenced in the substance identity, as does the disodium variant, which is also referenced.
The test substance has a presumed very low vapour pressure and is a granular or well dedusted product, hence the potential for the generation of inhalable forms is low. In addition, production and use is done in a closed process without isolation of reaction products. The isolated product are dust free granules or well dedusted powders (non-dusty solid) which may be formulated into a liquid preparation of low volatility and the use of this substance will not result in aerosols, particles or droplets of an inhalable size, so exposure to humans via the inhalatory route will be unlikely to occur. Oral and dermal exposure is considered to be the appropriate route of exposure and has been assessed accordingly. No acute inhalation test was performed.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The above studies have all been ranked reliability 1 according to the Klimisch et al system. This ranking was deemed appropriate because the studies were conducted to GLP and in compliance with agreed protocols. Sufficient dose ranges and numbers are detailed; hence it is appropriate for use based on reliability and animal welfare grounds.
The above results triggered no classification under the Dangerous Substance Directive (67/548/EEC) and the CLP Regulation (EC No 1272/2008). No classification for acute effects is therefore required.
