2-Aminoethanol reaction products with cyclohexane and peroxidized N-butyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinamine-2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine reaction products

Endpoint summary

Description of key information

Single oral and dermal application of the test item to male and female rats (OECD guideline 401 and 402, GLP) did not induce treatment related mortality or symptoms of toxicity. The LD50 after oral administration is therefore considered to > 5000 mg/kg bw and > 2000 mg/kg bw after dermal application.

Route of administration:

oral: gavage

Vehicle:

corn oil

Details on oral exposure:

VEHICLE:
- Concentration in vehicle: see dosage preparation
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): no data
- Justification for choice of vehicle: to make dosing by gavage possible
- Purity: no data

MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED:
A single dose was administered orally by syringe and dosing needle at a dose level of 5000 mg/kg bw. All animals received the same concentration of dosing solution.

DOSAGE PREPARATION:
15 g of test item was mixed with corn oil to a total volume of 30 mL

Doses:

5000 mg/kg bw

No. of animals per sex per dose:

5

Control animals:

no

Details on study design:

- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: 1, 2 and 4 hours postdose and once daily for 14 days for toxicity and pharmacological effects
- Animals were observed twice daily for mortality
- Body weights were recorded immediately pretest, on days 3 and 7, at death or at termination in the survivors
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes

Sex:

male/female

Dose descriptor:

LD50

Effect level:

> 5 000 mg/kg bw

Based on:

test mat.

Mortality:

Nine of ten animals survived the 5000 mg/kg bw oral dose.

Clinical signs:

Red staining of the nose/mouth area was noted in the animal which died on day 1. Physical signs noted in the survivors included emaciation, chromorhinorrhea, diarrhea and red staining of the nose/mouth area.

Body weight:

Body weight changes of male survivors were normal. Weight loss, associated with an obstructed water sipper, was noted in females but all returned to normal by day 14.

Gross pathology:

Necropsy results of the animal which died on day 1 revealed that the death was due to a dosing error which resulted in the test item being deposited into the lungs rather than to a toxic effect of the test item. Necropsy results of the survivors were normal.

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Additional information

Acute oral toxicity

Five healthy male and five healthy female Wistar albino rats were dosed orally with the test item at 5000 mg/kg of body weight (OECD guideline 401). The rats were observed 1, 2 and 4 hours postdose and once daily for 14 days for toxicity and pharmacological effects. The animals were observed twice daily for mortality. Body weights were recorded immediately pretest, on days 3 and 7, at death or at termination in the survivors. All animals were examined for gross pathology. Nine of ten animals survived the 5000 mg/kg oral dose. Red staining oft he nose/mouth area was noted in the animal which died on day 1. Physical signs noted in the survivors included emaciation, chromorhinorrhea, diarrhea and red staining of the nose/mouth area. Body weight changes of male survivors were normal. Weight loss, associated with an obstructed water sipper was noted in females but all returned to normal by day 14. Necropsy results of the animal which died on day 1 revealed that the death was due to a dosing error which resulted in the test article being deposited into the lungs rather than to a toxic effect of the test article. Necropsy results of the survivors were normal. In conclusion, the LD50 after oral administration is greater than 5000 mg/kg.

Acute dermal toxicity

Five healthy male and five healthy female New Zealand White rabbits were dosed dermally with the test item at 2000 mg/kg of body weight for 24h under occlusive conditions (OECD guideline 402). Dermal responses were recorded at 30 - 60 minutes and at 24, 48 and 72 hours post patch removal and again on days 4, 7,10 and 14. All animals were examined for gross pathology. All animals survived the 2000 mg/kg dermal application. Instances of diarrhea, soiling of the anogenital area, few feces and wetness of the anogenital area were noted during the observation period. Five males and three females appeared normal at each observation period. Dermal reactions (irritation) were absent on days 1, 2, 3 and 4. Body weight changes were normal in 7/10 animals. Three animals lost weight at some time during the observation period. Necropsy results were normal in 9/10 animals. Excess fluid in the peritoneal cavity was noted in one female. In conclusion, the LD50 after dermal application is greater than 2000 mg/kg of body weight.
