- Chamber Operations and Test Substance Administration:
Exposure of the test animals was conducted in a 250 liter stainless steel and glass chamber. The chamber is constructed with a square cross-sectioned area and pyramidal top and base. It was operated in a dynamic mode, with total airflow through the chamber of 2.2 cubic feet per minute (cfm) as measured by a calibrated orifice gauge.
Test material was used as received and was generated as a vapor in the breathing zone of the animals. NAPHTHA (PETROLEUM), LIGHT ALKYLATE was introduced at a rate of 0.34 to 0.51 ml/minute into the top of a vertical counter current heated column. The column was packed with Propac steel mesh and heated by circulation of water from a heated waterbath (74 to 75°C) around the steel mesh. Prewarmed nitrogen gas was introduced at the bottom of the column at a rate of 5.5 to 6.0 liters per minute (1pm). The nitrogen and the NAPHTHA (PETROLEUM), LIGHT ALKYLATE vapours were then mixed with diluting air and introduced into the exposure chamber. Following four hours of exposure, the test material generation system was turned off. Subsequently, air was drawn through the exposure chamber for an additional half-hour period to clear the NAPHTHA (PETROLEUM), LIGHT ALKYLATE vapours. Afterwards, the chamber was opened and the animals were removed.
Atmospheric Sampling:
The exposure chamber atmosphere was recirculated (undiluted) through a Miran 980 infrared (IR) analyzer. Commencing at five minutes after the start of test material generation and at intervals of five to fifteen minutes thereafter, the test atmosphere was analyzed by its IR absorption at 3.393 microns. The atmospheric concentration of NAPHTHA (PETROLEUM), LIGHT ALKYLATE was determined by comparison of absorbance with a standard curve which was prepared with known concentrations of NAPHTHA (PETROLEUM), LIGHT ALKYLATE.
Chamber temperature and relative humidity were monitored continuously during the exposure. Readings were recorded at one-hour intervals. During each hour of the exposure, the test atmosphere was also analyzed gravimetrically and visually (by flashlight) for the presence of any NAPHTHA (PETROLEUM), LIGHT ALKYLATE aerosol. Gravimetric measurement of the test material aerosol concentration was accomplished by drawing a calibrated volume of test atmosphere through a preweighed 25 mm Gelman glass fiber (Type A/E) filter. The aerosol concentration, if any, in the drawn volume was determined by dividing the difference in filter weight by the sample volume.
Appropriate components of the generation system and test material container were weighed before and after the exposure to determine the quantity of test material consumed. This quantity, when divided by the total airflow through the chamber, yielded the nominal exposure concentration. - Analytical verification of test atmosphere concentrations:

Additional information
Oral
‘Naphtha (Fischer-Tropsch), light, C4-C10 branched and linear’ was tested in an acute oral toxicity study according to the fixed dose method (OECD 420). Following a preliminary test in which there were no deaths at a dose level of 5000 mg/kg, an additional 4 fasted Sprague-Dawley DC rats received a dose of 5000 mg of the undiluted test material per kg body weight by gavage. There were no signs of toxicity, all animals showed normal gains in body weight, and there were no abnormalities on necropsy.
Inhalation
There are no data available on the acute toxicity of ‘Naphtha (Fischer-Tropsch), light, C4-C10 branched and linear’ upon inhalation exposure. However, astudy was performed to assess the acute inhalation toxicityof the closely related substance ‘Naphtha (petroleum), light alkylate’ (covering the carbon numbers in the range C7-C10), whereat the used method was compatible withOECD403. It was considered that the acute inhalation median lethal concentration (4 hour LC50) of the test material in the rat, was > 5040 mg/m3. There was no mortality and the clinical signs observed were languid behaviour and hunched appearance. There were no treatment-related effects observed at necropsy.
Dermal
There is no data available on the acute dermal toxicity of ‘Naphtha (Fischer-Tropsch), light, C4-C10 branched and linear’. However, a study on the acute dermal toxicity of the related substance ‘Naphtha (petroleum), light alkylate’ (with a limited range of C7-C10) reported a LD50 value of > 2000 mg/kg bw for the test substance in rats. There were no deaths, no systemic toxicity or treatment related abnormalities at necropsy reported for the test substance.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
Only one study available with the identify of test material same as for substance defined in section 1
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – inhalation endpoint
No acute toxicity data (via inhalation route) are available for the substance defined in section 1. For the endpoint conclusion a study of a related substance with a limited range, (C7-C10) was selected.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint
No acute dermal toxicity data are available for the substance defined in section 1. For the endpoint conclusion a study on the acute dermal toxicity of a related substance with a limited range, (C7-C10) was selected.
Justification for classification or non-classification
On the basis of the available data, ‘Naphtha (Fischer-Tropsch), light, C4-C10 branched and linear’ does not require classification for lethal effects following a single exposure according to Regulation 1272/2008/EC.
The self classification STOT Single Exp. 3; H336’ is based on the classification of the constituent n-hexane (presence of n-hexane in the test material up to 20%). Moreover the UVCB substance contains further hydrocarbons/constituents, which are also classified as STOT Single Exp. 3; H336' (e.g. 2 -methylbutane; n-pentane; 2 -methylpentane; 2 -methylhexane; n-heptane; 2,2,4 -trimethylpentane).
Since the substance is composed of aliphatic hydrocarbons and has low viscosity, it may present an aspiration hazard in humans following oral exposure. It is therefore appropriate to classify the substance as Aspiration Toxicity Category 1 (according to Regulation 1272/2008/EC).
