Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified
Conclusions:
The LD50 value was considered to be > 4600mg/kg bw when rats were treated with test chemical orally.
Executive summary:

In acute oral toxicity study, test chemical was administered by stomach tube to groups of 4 Sprague Dawley rats in doses of 4600, 6800, 10200, 15400 and 23100 mg/kg. The rats were then observed for 14 days. No effects were seen at the lowest dose, sedation and anorexic were observed within one hour of treatment with doses of 6800 and 10200 mg/kg. Two rats from each of these groups died, the remaining appeared normal after 36 hr. Rats treated with15400 and 23100 mg/kg all died within 96 hr. The test chemical was excreted percutaneously and in urine and feces. Hence,LD50 value was considered to be > 4600mg/kg bw when rats were treated with test chemical orally. Therefore according to CLP regulation, the test chemical cannot be classified for Acute oral toxicity.
