Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

not classified

Remarks:

Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU

Conclusions:

Single application of 15000 mg/kg bw of the test substance did not cause lethality in female Wistar rats during the 14 day observation period, resulting in a LD50 > 15000 mg/kg bw.

Executive summary:

Female Wistar rats were subjected to test acute oral toxicity. The test substance was administered by gavage at the highest dose levels applicable: 15000 mg/kg bw. No animal died under these conditions during the 14 -day observation period, thus leading to a LD50 > 15000 mg/kg bw.
