Endpoint:
acute toxicity: oral
Type of information:
migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
GLP - Guideline study, tested with the source substance Alcohols, lanolin (CAS No. 8027-33-6). In accordance to the ECHA guidance document "Practical guide 6: How to report read-across and categories (March 2010)", the reliability was changed from RL1 to RL2 to reflect the fact that this study was conducted on a read-across substance.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The substance is not classified as toxic or harmful by the oral route of exposure.
CLP: not classified
DSD: not classified
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the oral toxicity of the test substance following the OECD Guidelne 401 and EU Method B.1.

Under the test conditions (a single oral dose of the test material at 2000 mg/kg bw) to rats revealed no toxic symptoms.

The substance is not classified as toxic or harmful by the oral route of exposure.
