Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
EU criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this study, the LD50 (male/female) was determined to be > 5000 mg/kg bw
Executive summary:

The study was performed according to a method equivalent or similar to OECD TG 401 to assess the acute oral toxicity potential of the test item to the rat. Following administration by oral gavage at a dose level of 5000 mg/kg bodyweight there were no mortalities and no significant clinical signs. Under the conditions of this study, the LD50 (male/female) was determined to be > 5000 mg/kg bw.
