Key value for chemical safety assessment
Acute toxicity: via oral route
Link to relevant study records
- Endpoint:
- acute toxicity: oral
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 1964
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- comparable to guideline study with acceptable restrictions
- Qualifier:
- equivalent or similar to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 401 (Acute Oral Toxicity)
- Version / remarks:
- 1987
- Deviations:
- yes
- Remarks:
- Not all animals were of the same sex, no data on whether animals that died during the test were necropsied.
- GLP compliance:
- not specified
- Remarks:
- The study is a publication
- Test type:
- other: not reported
- Limit test:
- no
- Species:
- rat
- Strain:
- Osborne-Mendel
- Sex:
- male/female
- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- TEST ANIMALS
- Age at study initiation: young adults
- Fasting period before study: 18 hrs
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): ad libitum
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): ad libitum - Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Details on oral exposure:
- No data
- Doses:
- No data
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 5
- Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- - Duration of observation period following administration: two weeks
- Frequency of observations and weighing: close observation, no frequency reported
- Necropsy of survivors performed: no - Statistics:
- The LD50's were computed by the method of Litchfield & Wilcoxon (1949), slope function and confidence limits were also reported.
- Preliminary study:
- Not applicable
- Key result
- Sex:
- male/female
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Effect level:
- 44 750 mg/kg bw
- Based on:
- test mat.
- 95% CL:
- >= 33 650 - < 59 520
- Mortality:
- One animal died after 4 hours and one after 11 days.
- Clinical signs:
- Depression, scrawny appearance, rough, wet fur.
- Body weight:
- No data
- Gross pathology:
- No data
- Interpretation of results:
- other: not classified
- Remarks:
- based on CLP criteria
- Conclusions:
- In this acute oral toxicity test an LD50 of 44,750 mg/kg bw was determined. Based on these results, Cedryl acetate does not need to be classified for acute oral toxicity in accordance with the criteria outlined in Annex I of the CLP Regulation (1272/2008/EC).
- Executive summary:
In this study, 10 rats (5 males and 5 females) were treated with Cedryl acetate via oral gavage. Observation period was 14 days after treatment and toxic signs and mortality were reported. An LD50 is calculated based on the results. Two animals died during the study, one after 4 hours and one after 11 days. The rats showed depression, scrawny appearance, rough and wet fur during the observation period. The acute oral LD50 for the substance in male and female rats was calculated to be 44,750 mg/kg bw, with a 95% Confidence Interval of 33,650-59,520 mg/kg bw. Based on the results of this study, Cedryl acetate does not need to be classified for acute oral toxicity in accordance with the criteria outlined in Annex I of the CLP Regulation (1272/2008/EC).
Reference
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed
- Quality of whole database:
- The acute oral toxicity result is of sufficient quality and adequate for this dossier.
Additional information
In this study, 10 rats (5 males and 5 females) were treated with Cedryl acetate via oral gavage. Observation period was 14 days after treatment and toxic signs and mortality were reported. An LD50 is calculated based on the results. Two animals died during the study, one after 4 hours and one after 11 days. The rats showed depression, scrawny appearance, rough and wet fur during the observation period. The acute oral LD50 for the substance in male and female rats was calculated to be 44,750 mg/kg bw, with a 95% Confidence Interval of 33,650-59,520 mg/kg bw.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the result of the key study, the substance does not have to be classified as acute toxic by the oral route in accordance with the criteria outlined in Annex I of the CLP Regulation (1272/2008/EC).
