Mortality:
no mortality
Clinical signs:
other: no effects
Gross pathology:
no effects
Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
LD50>2000 mg/kg body weight
Executive summary:

The acute oral toxicity of the test substance was investigated in young adult Wistar rats according to OECD guideline 401. The test article was dissolved in arachidis oil and given orally by means of a stomach tube in a dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight to 5 male and 5 female animals. At frequent intervals at the day of application and twice a day in the following 14 days, the rats were observed for any signs of reaction. The surviving rats were sacrified at the end of the observation period and a macroscopic postmortem examination was performed on all rats. The LD50 was >2000 mg/kg for male and female rats.

LD0>2000 mg/kg

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
substance not toxic after dermal application
Executive summary:

The study was performed as a limit test according to OECD guideline 402. Wistar rats (5 males and 5 females) were randomly selected for the study. The group was exposed to a single dermal dose of 2000 mg/kg b.w. for 24 hours followed by an observation period of 14 days. During the study clinical signs of reaction to the treatment were recorded daily. Body weight was recorded once a week. After the two-week observation period the animals were killed and subjected to a gross necropsy examination. All animals survived the application and did not reveal any signs of toxicity. The animals gained the expected body weight. No skin reactions at the application site were observed. No macroscopic findings were observed at necropsy. These results indicate that the test substance has no significant toxic effect in the rat following dermal administration of a single dose at a level of 2000 mg/kg.

Additional information

Acute oral toxicity:

The acute oral toxicity of the test substance was investigated in young adult Wistar rats according to OECD guideline 401. The test article was dissolved in arachidis oil and given orally by means of a stomach tube in a dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight to 5 male and 5 female animals. At frequent intervals at the day of application and twice a day in the following 14 days, the rats were observed for any signs of reaction. The surviving rats were sacrified at the end of the observation period and a macroscopic postmortem examination was performed on all rats. The LD50 was >2000 mg/kg for male and female rats.

Based on the reliability and relevance, this study has been used as key study.

Acute dermal toxicity:

A study was performed as a limit test according to OECD guideline 402. Wistar rats (5 males and 5 females) were randomly selected for the study. The group was exposed to a single dermal dose of 2000 mg/kg b.w. for 24 hours followed by an observation period of 14 days. During the study clinical signs of reaction to the treatment were recorded daily. Body weight was recorded once a week. After the two-week observation period the animals were killed and subjected to a gross necropsy examination.All animals survived the application and did not reveal any signs of toxicity. The animals gained the expected body weight. No skin reactions at the application site were observed. No macroscopic findings were observed at necropsy.These results indicate that the test substance has no significant toxic effect in the rat following dermal administration of a single dose at a level of 2000 mg/kg. 

Based on the reliability and relevance, this study has been used as key study.

Acute inhalation toxicity:

Inhalation toxicity has not been evaluated as the predominant exposure route is via the dermal route.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on results of the key studies the substance does not need to be classified according to GHS (Regulation (EU) 1272/2008).
