Results and discussion

Preliminary study:
Range-finding study: Male and female rats were administered the test substance by a single oral dose at the following levels:
500, 1000, 2000, 3000 and 5000 mg/kg bw.
Following dosing, the animals were observed for mortality for eight consecutive days. No deaths occurred.
Effect levels
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 5 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Mortality:
No mortality occurred during this study.
Clinical signs:
other: The most notable clinical signs consisted of transient incidences of urine/fecal stains, soft stools and reddish colored urine.
Gross pathology:
Internal obervations at necropsy were limited to reddened adrenal glands in one animal.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this test, the acute oral LD50 of the test substance was determined to be greater than 5000 mg/kg bw in the rat.
