Prior to the administration a detailed clinical observation was made of all animals.
Prior to the administration food was withheld from the test animals for 16 to 19 hours (access to water was permitted). Following the period of fasting the animals were weighed and the test item was administered. Food was provided again approximately 4 hours post dosing.
The test item was administered at a single dose by gavage using a feeding tube.
The test item was administered at a dose volume of 10 mL/kg body weight. - Doses:
- Dose Level:
The starting dose was selected to be 2000 mg/kg body weight. No compound-related mortality was recorded for any animal of step 1 or 2. Based on these results and according to the acute toxic class method regime no further testing was required. - No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 6
- Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
All animals were observed for 14 days after dosing for general clinical signs, morbidity and mortality.
The animals were weighed on day 1 (prior to the administration) and on days 8 and 15. A careful clinical examination was made several times on the day of dosing (at least once during the first 30 minutes and with special attention given during the first 4 hours post-dose). As soon as symptoms were noticed they were recorded. Thereafter, the animals were observed for clinical signs once daily until the end of the observation period. All abnormalities were recorded. Cageside observations included changes in the skin and fur, eyes and mucous membranes. Also respiratory, circulatory, autonomic and central nervous systems and somatomotor activity and behaviour pattern were examined. Particular attention was directed to observations of tremor, convulsions, salivation, diarrhoea, lethargy, sleep and coma. At the end of the observation period the surviving animals were sacrificed with an overdosage of pentobarbital injected intraperitoneally (Narcoren®, Merial; lot no.: 221022; expiry date: 02/2015) at a dosage of approximately 8 mL/kg bw. All animals were subjected to gross necropsy. All gross pathological changes were recorded.- Statistics:

- Sex:
- female

- Mortality:
- All animals survived until the end of the study without showing any signs of toxicity.

- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the present study, a single oral application of the test item Fatty acids, C16-18-, reaction products with diethanolamine to rats at a dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight was associated with no signs of toxicity or mortality.

1.1. Summary Results
Two groups, each of three female WISTAR Crl: WI(Han) rats, were treated with the test item by oral gavage administration at a dosage of 2000 mg/kg body weight. The test item was suspended in the vehicle aqua ad injectionem (sterile water) at a concentration of 0.2 g/mL and administered at a dose volume of 10 mL/kg.
All animals used in the study after their entrance at BSL were allowed to acclimatise to the laboratory conditions for at least 5 days. The animals were observed on delivery, on inclusion in the study and before administration for mortality/morbidity and other clinical signs. All animals were examined for clinical signs several times on the day of dosing and once daily until the end of the observation period. Their body weights were recorded on day 1 (prior to the administration) and on days 8 and 15.All animals were necropsied and examined macroscopically.

- Preparation of the Animals:
The animals were marked for individual identification by tail painting.
Approximately 24 hours before the test, the fur was removed from the dorsal area of the trunk using an electric clipper. Care was taken to avoid abrading the skin, and only animals with healthy intact skin were used.
No less than 10% of the body surface was cleared for the application.
Prior to the application a detailed clinical observation was made of all animals.
Application:
The test item was applied at a single dose, uniformly over an area which was approximately 10% of the total body surface.
The test item was held in contact with the skin by a dressing throughout a 24-hour period. The dressing consisted of a gauze-dressing and non-irritating tape and was fixed with an additional dressing in a suitable manner. - Duration of exposure:
- The test item was held in contact with the skin throughout a 24-hour period. At the end of the exposure period the residual test item was removed using aqua ad injectionem.

- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 5 male and 5 female
- Control animals:

- Details on study design:
- Observation period:

careful clinical examination was made several times on the day of dosing (at least once during the first 30 minutes and with special attention given during the first 4 hours post-dose). As soon as symptoms were noticed they were recorded. Thereafter, the animals were observed for clinical signs once daily until the end of the observation period. All abnormalities were recorded.

Additional information
Acute exposure of rats via oral or dermal route did not result in any adverse systemic or local effects.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Not classified
Neither after oral nor after dermal exposure any mortalities were detected at 2000 mg/kg bw. Therefore criteria for classification are not fullfilled.
