- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): 10 mL/kg bw/d - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- Analytical verifications of the stability of the test substance in deionized water for a period of 7 days at room temperature had been initiated prior to the start of the study in the same batch. At the beginning (during premating), twice during gestation and once during lactation of the study each 1 sample was taken from the low, mid and high concentration for a concentration control analysis. The samples collected at the beginning of the administration period and during lactation were analyzed via capillary electrophoresis (CE) with indirect UV/VIS detection.
All measured values for the test substance were in the expected range of the target concentrations (90 - 110%) demonstrating the correctness of the preparations. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- males: 30 days; females: 56 days
The duration of treatment covered a 2-weeks premating and mating period in both sexes, 3 days postmating in males, the entire gestation and approximately 3 weeks of lactation period in females and 4-weeks postmating for sperm negative females up to the day of scheduled sacrifice of the animals. - Frequency of treatment:

- Details on study design:
- - Dose selection rationale: In an acute oral toxicity study in rats, the calculated LD50-value for males and females was 1100 mg/kg bw/d. Severe clinical signs (e.g. dyspnoe, apathy, staggering, trembling, poor general state) and mortality in both sexes were observed at 1000 mg/kg bw/d and above. At the lowest tested dose of 464 mg/kg bw/d, one female died within the first 24 hours.
In a repeated dose test study, the test substance was orally (gavage) applied at concentrations of 0, 150 and 500 mg/kg bw/d for 14 days to four rats per test group and sex. At 500 mg/kg bw/d, one male animal was found dead on study day 10 and one further male was sacrificed in moribund state due to severe clinical findings (gasping, labored respiration, respiration sounds) on study day 10. Furthermore, significantly reduced food consumption, decreased body weights, and hematological as well as gross pathological findings were observed at this dose level. At 150 mg/kg bw/d, no adverse findings were observed.
Based on the above-mentioned effects, the following dose levels were selected: 25, 75 and 250 mg/kg bw/d.

- salivation immediately after dosing (up to 2 hours post dosing) during the whole treatment period in several male and all female animals (not considered to be adverse)

- effects observed, non-treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- High-dose group (250 mg/kg bw/d):
- significantly increased glucose levels in females at the end of the administration period (regarded as incidental and not treatment-related, since the mean was within the historical control range (females, glucose 5.58 - 6.98 mmol/L)) - Urinalysis findings:

- All gross findings occurred individually. They were considered to be incidental or spontaneous in origin and without any relation to treatment.
- Neuropathological findings:
- no effects observed
- Histopathological findings: non-neoplastic:
- effects observed, non-treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- All findings occurred either individually or were biologically equally distributed over control and treatment groups. They were considered to be incidental or spontaneous in origin and without any relation to treatment.
The one animal, sacrificed in a moribund state, showed hyperkeratosis and squamous cell hyperplasia in the forestomach, and decreased cellularity in the spleen (white pulp), thymus (cortical) and bone marrow of the sternum. All these findings were consistent with the moribund condition of the animal. - Histopathological findings: neoplastic:

- NOAEL
- Effect level:
- 75 mg/kg bw/day (nominal)
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Sex:
- female
- Basis for effect level:
- body weight and weight gain
- food consumption and compound intake
- water consumption and compound intake
- Dose descriptor:
- NOAEL
- Effect level:
- 250 mg/kg bw/day (nominal)
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Sex:
- male
- Basis for effect level:
- other: no adverse effects observed up to and including the highest tested dose
- Critical effects observed:
- no
- Conclusions:
- The no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) for general systemic toxicity was the highest dose of 250 mg/kg bw/d for male and the mid-dose of 75 mg/kg bw/d for female Wistar rats.
- Executive summary:
The test substance was administered daily as an aqueous preparation to groups of 10 male and 10 female Wistar rats (F0 animals) by gavage at doses of 25, 75 and 250 mg/kg body weight/day (mg/kg bw/d). Control animals (10 male and 10 female Wistar rats) were dosed daily with the vehicle only (deionized water). The duration of treatment covered a 2-weeks premating and mating period in both sexes (mating pairs were from the same test group), 3 days postmating in males, the entire gestation and approximately 3 weeks of lactation period in females and 4-weeks postmating for sperm negative females up to the day of scheduled sacrifice of the animals.
The oral administration of the test substance resulted in signs of systemic toxicity in females at the highest dose of 250 mg/kg bw/d. In high-dose F0 females, adverse findings consisted of a reduction in water and food consumption and a decrease in body weight change. Male animals showed no adverse signs at any tested dose.
Thus, the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) for general systemic toxicity was the highest dose of 250 mg/kg bw/d for male and the mid-dose of 75 mg/kg bw/d for female Wistar rats.

Additional information
In a Combined Repeated Dose Toxicity Study with the Reproduction/Developmental Toxicity Screening Test (according to OECD TG 422), the test substance was administered daily as an aqueous preparation to groups of 10 male and 10 female Wistar rats (F0 animals) by gavage at doses of 25, 75 and 250 mg/kg body weight/day (mg/kg bw/d). Control animals (10 male and 10 female Wistar rats) were dosed daily with the vehicle only (deionized water). The duration of treatment covered a 2-weeks premating and mating period in both sexes (mating pairs were from the same test group), 3 days postmating in males, the entire gestation and approximately 3 weeks of lactation period in females and 4-weeks postmating for sperm negative females up to the day of scheduled sacrifice of the animals.
The oral administration of the test substance resulted in signs of systemic toxicity in females at the highest dose of 250 mg/kg bw/d. Adverse findings consisted of a reduction in water consumption
during premating (up to 18% below control), gestation (GD 0-1: 21%) and lactation (up to 23% below control, statistically significant) and, concomitantly, a statistically significant reduction in food consumption during premating, gestation and lactation (up to 10%, 9% and 23% below control, respectively). Furthermore, in high-dose females, a body weight loss and a decreased body weight change during lactation were observed.
High-, mid- and low dose (250, 75 and 25 mg/kg bw/d) males and mid- and low-dose females showed no adverse findings in any of the examined parameters.
Thus, the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) for general systemic toxicity was the highest dose of 250 mg/kg bw/d for male and the mid-dose of 75 mg/kg bw/d for female Wistar rats.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The available experimental test data are reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation 1272/2008. As a result the substance is not considered to be classified for specific target organ toxicity under Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, as amended for the 13th time in Regulation (EU) 2018/1480.
