Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
LD50: > 2000 mg/ kg bw
Executive summary:

The substance was tested for acute oral toxicity in the Wistar rat (5 mals and 5 females) according to OECD 401 (limit test) using a dose of 2000 mg/kg bw. No lethality occured, but irregular respiration and squatting posture was observed. These symptoms disappeared 2 days after dosing. The development of the body weight was normal. Necropsy revealed no abnormal findings. LD50 was above 2000 mg/ kg bw.
