Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Executive summary:
MHW, 1996
In an acute oral toxicity study male and Crj:CD(SD) rats were administered orally at doses of 0, 670, 804, 965, 1158, 1389 and 1667 mg/kg (method according to OECD guideline 401) of 3,4 -dichlorobut-1 -ene. The animals were observed for 14 days after administration. Clinical signs of decreased locomotor activity, deep respiration, ptosis, salivation, flaccidity, adoption of a prone position, piloerection and perinasal soiling with nasal discharge were observed in the treated groups. At autopsy, lung enlargement, urine retention and crystalline materials in the urinary bladder and hemorrhagic black spots in the glandular stomach mucosa were observed in animals. Fatalities were found for both sexes at doses of more than 804 mg/kg.
The LD50 values were 943 mg/kg for males and 946 mg/kg for females. Based on the test results, 3,4 -dichlorobut-1-ene is to be classified as Xn R22/20 according to DSD-DPD, and Acute Tox 4, according to CLP (H302, H332, Harmful if inhaled and if swallowed), according to the DSD classification criteria.
