Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: not classified: criteria not met
- Remarks:
- according to EU CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 and its amendments.
- Conclusions:
- The key acute oral toxicity test (Denine, 1973) presented in this study record showed an LD50 of >5000 mg/kg bw.
Based on this key study and additional available studies presented in the Endpoint Summary, all presenting LD50's > 2000 mg/kg bw, the substance does not need to be classified for acute oral toxicity according to EU CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 and its amendments. However, note that classification is warranted for GHS based on the additional available study from Avon (1977) presenting a LD50 of 3690 mg/kg bw, resulting in acute oral toxicity hazard Category 5 classification. - Executive summary:
Acute oral toxicity was assessed in a pre-OECD, pre-GLP study in which 10 rats were administered the substance at a dose level of 5000 mg/kg bw. Four of ten animals died, deaths were observed on day 2, 4, 6 and 7. Clinical signs included enteritis and pneumonia. The acute oral LD50 for the substance in rats was determined to be greater than 5000 mg/kg bw.
