Description of key information

Acute oral toxicity:

Acute oral toxicity study was conducted in order assess the toxicological profile of the test item on wistar rats. Based on the results, The LD50 of test chemical was determined to be 5000 mg/kg ,Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute oral toxicity.

Acute Inhalation Toxicity:

The acute inhalation toxicity study need not be conducted because exposure to humans via inhalation route is not likely taking into account due to the low vapour pressure of the test chemical, which is reported to be 4.55E-07 Pa. Thus, exposure to inhalable dust, mist and vapour of the chemical is highly unlikely. Therefore this study is considered for waiver.

Acute Dermal toxicity:

The acute dermal toxicity dose (LD50) was considered based on different studies conducted on rabbits for the test chemical. The studies concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw, for acute dermal toxicity. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute dermal toxicity.

Executive summary:: The acute oral toxicity study with test chemical in Wistar rats was conducted to assess the toxicological profile of the test item. The dose formulation was prepared by using Milli-Q water and administered as a single oral gavage to overnight fasted (16 to 18 hours) three female rats (G1-FTS) at the dose of 300 mg/kg body weight. There were no clinical signs of toxicity and pre-terminal deaths observed. As all the rats survived at this step, the test was confirmed with three additional female animals with the same dose of 300 mg/kg body weight (G1-STS). There were no clinical signs of toxicity and pre-terminal deaths observed at this step.Based on the scheme - Annex 2c of the guideline OECD 423, the test was repeated at the dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight (G2-FTS). There were no clinical signs of toxicity observed. Hence, the test was confirmed with three additional female rats at the same dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight (G2-STS) as per the scheme - Annex 2c of the guideline OECD 423. There were no clinical signs of toxicity and pre-terminal deaths observed at this confirmatory test. Hence, the further dosing was stopped.The rats were observed for mortality and clinical signs for 14 days post treatment. Body weights were recorded prior to dosing on day 1 and again on days 8 and 15. Gross necropsy was performed for all the rats at termination. The body weight growth of all rats was unaffected by the test item. There were no gross pathological changes at necropsy, hence histopathology was not performed.Based on the results of the present study, the LD50of test item is 5000 mg/kg body weight or infinity as per LD50cut-off value,Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute oral toxicity.

Additional information

Acute oral toxicity:

The acute oral toxicity study with test chemical in Wistar rats was conducted to assess the toxicological profile of the test item. The dose formulation was prepared by using Milli-Q water and administered as a single oral gavage to overnight fasted (16 to 18 hours) three female rats (G1-FTS) at the dose of 300 mg/kg body weight. There were no clinical signs of toxicity and pre-terminal deaths observed. As all the rats survived at this step, the test was confirmed with three additional female animals with the same dose of 300 mg/kg body weight (G1-STS). There were no clinical signs of toxicity and pre-terminal deaths observed at this step.Based on the scheme - Annex 2c of the guideline OECD 423, the test was repeated at the dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight (G2-FTS). There were no clinical signs of toxicity observed. Hence, the test was confirmed with three additional female rats at the same dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight (G2-STS) as per the scheme - Annex 2c of the guideline OECD 423. There were no clinical signs of toxicity and pre-terminal deaths observed at this confirmatory test. Hence, the further dosing was stopped.The rats were observed for mortality and clinical signs for 14 days post treatment. Body weights were recorded prior to dosing on day 1 and again on days 8 and 15. Gross necropsy was performed for all the rats at termination. The body weight growth of all rats was unaffected by the test item. There were no gross pathological changes at necropsy, hence histopathology was not performed.Based on the results of the present study, the LD50of test item is 5000 mg/kg body weight or infinity as per LD50cut-off value,Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute oral toxicity.

Acute Inhalation Toxicity:

Acute Dermal Toxicity:

The acute dermal toxicity of test chemical in Wistar rats was tested with 200 (G1-DRF), 1000 (G2-DRF) and 2000 (G3-DRF) mg/kg with 1 female each for the dose range finding study and 2 female for main study (G3).Based on the individual body weight, the test item at the dose of 200, 1000 and 2000 mg/kg body weight was weighed on an aluminum foil and made as a paste in Milli-Q water and applied directly to the clipped skin of the animal to cover about 10% of the body surface of the animal (semi-occlusive). The area of application was covered with cotton gauze (size: Females: 8 x 5 cm of 6 ply) and it was secured in position by adhesive tape wound around the torso. The test item contact period with the skin was for 24 hours.After the 24 hours contact period, the dressing was removed and the applied area was washed with deionized water and wiped dry using clean towels. All the rats were observed for clinical signs of toxicity and mortality for 14 days post application. In addition, the treatment site was observed at 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of test item using the Draize criteria. There were no clinical signs of toxicity and mortality. There was no skin reaction observed at the site of application of test item. Body weights were measured on Days 1, 8 and 15 and growth was unaffected by test item. At the end of observation period (Day 15), all animals were euthanized and subjected to necropsy, and there were no gross lesions noted at the necropsy.Based on the present study results, the acute dermal LD50of test chemical is greater than 2000 mg/kg body weight in female Wistar rats.Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute dermal toxicity.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the above studies on test chemical, it can be concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw and 5000 mg/kg bw for acute dermal and acute oral toxicity respectively. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute oral and acute dermal toxicity. For acute inhalation toxicity wavier was added so, not possible to classify.
