Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
study cannot be used for classification
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the Sprague-Dawley strain Albino male rats was found to be 10,000 mg/kg bodyweight. The test substance was classified as non-toxic.
Executive summary:

In an acute oral toxicity study, 3 groups fasted Sprague-Dawley strain albino rats (6 male per dose) were given a single oral dose of undiluted test material at a dose level of   5,000, 7,500 and 10,000  mg/kg bw and observed for14 days. 3/6 animals in the highest dose group found dead one day after the treatment, no mortality occurred in the other two groups. The oral LD50 value of test material in rats has been determined to be 10,000 mg/kg bw.
