Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not clasified as toxic or harmful according to CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006.
Conclusions:
The acute oral median lethal dose LD50 in rats is > 5000 mg/kg body weight.
No clinical symptoms were recorded and no deaths occurred during the 14 day observation period. At autopsy no changes in organs or tissues caused by the administration of the test compound were seen.
Executive summary:

The determination of oral toxicity of the substance was determined in an, but no guideline is available and the test was not performed on GLP. The test substance was tested in a single dose (5000 mg/kg bw) on rats. The animals were observed for 14 days.

The acute oral median lethal dose LD50 in rats in > 5000 mg/kg body weight.

No clinical symptoms were recorded and no deaths occurred during the 14 day observation period. At autopsy no changes in organs or tissues caused by the administration of the test compound were seen.
