Description of key information

 Single oral application of 2000 mg submission substance per kg body weight via gavage did not cause lethality in male and female Wistar-rats during the 14 day observation period, resulting in an oral LD50 > 2000 mg/kg bw. No data on acute toxicity after inhalation are available. The submission substance was evaluated for Acute Dermal Toxicity in Sprague Dawley Rats as per the OECD guideline for the testing of chemicals No. 402, “Acute Dermal Toxicity - Fixed Dose Procedure”. Under the experimental conditions employed and based on the above results, it is concluded that the acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of submission substance in Sprague Dawley rats is > 2000 mg/kg body weight. Reliable data from one guideline study on acute toxicity after dermal application is available for a surrogate of the submission substance. The LD50 value from this study is above 2000 mg/kg bw as well.

Interpretation of results:
Category 5 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Under the experimental conditions employed and based on the above results, it is concluded that the acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of test item 6-(Isononanoylamino) hexanoic acid, compound with 2,2′,2″-nitrilotriethanol (1:1) in Sprague Dawley rats is > 2000 mg/kg body weight and classified as “Category 5 / Unclassified” (2000 < ATE ≤ 5000 mg/kg body weight) according to the Globally Harmonized System (GHS) of Classification
Executive summary:

The test item 6-(Isononanoylamino) hexanoic acid, compound with 2,2′,2″-nitrilotriethanol (1:1) obtained from Clariant India Ltd.was evaluated for Acute Dermal Toxicity in Sprague Dawley Rats as per the OECD guideline for the testing of chemicals No. 402, “Acute Dermal Toxicity - Fixed Dose Procedure”.

The study was performed in two phases i.e. range finding study and main study. Range finding study was performed with one female rat and main study was performed with two female rats. On the day before the application of the test item, fur on the dorso-lateral area of the trunk of the animals was removed by clipping closely with an electric hair clipper and care was taken to avoid abrading the skin.

The required quantity of the test item was applied as uniform film over an area of approximately 10% of the total body surface. The test item was held on to the applied surface by covering with cotton gauze dressing and wrapped with non-irritating adhesive tape and finally the application site was wrapped using semi-occlusive crepe bandage. The contact period of test item was 24 hours. At the end of the contact period, the residual test item was washed using distilled water and dried with absorbent cotton.

Since the oral LD50of test item is >2000 mg/kg for rats as per material safety data sheet provided by the sponsor, a starting dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight was selected from the fixed dose levels of 50, 200, 1000 and 2000 mg/kg body weight. No clinical signs and mortalities were observed at the dose level of 2000 mg/kg body weight in range finding study. Hence, during main study, two animals were administered with the same dose level of 2000 mg/kg body weight. No clinical signs were observed at the dose level of 2000 mg/kg body weight. Hence, no further testing was carried out.

All the animals were observed for clinical signs of toxicity and mortality at 20 to 30 min, 1 hr (±10 mins), 2 hrs (±10 mins), 4 hrs (±10 mins) and 6 hrs (±10 mins) on treatment day 1 and thereafter once daily for clinical signs of toxicity and twice daily for mortality during the 14 days observation period. The body weight was recorded on day 1 before test item application and on day 8 and 15. At the end of observation period, all the animals were sacrificed under carbon dioxide anaesthesia and subjected to necropsy and detailed gross pathological examination.

No mortality, clinical signs and skin reactions were noted. No treatment related changes in body weight and percent change in body weight with respect to day 1 were noted. Normal increase in body weights were noted during the observation period. No treatment related gross pathological changes were noted at 2000 mg/kg body weight (range finding study and main study) during necropsy.

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed
Dose descriptor:
discriminating dose
Value:
2 000 mg/kg bw
Quality of whole database:
The study is GLP compliant and has Klimisch score 1.

Additional information

10 Wistar-rats (5 males and 5 females) were subjected to test acute oral toxicity of the submission substance (OECD 401, GLP compliant). Within this limit test the test substance was administered by gavage at a dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight (vehicle starch mucilage). Body weight development was not impaired, general clinical signs observed were reversible within 8 hours after substance application and there were no macroscopically visible changes found. No animal died during the 14 day observation period, resulting in a LD50 > 2000 mg/kg bw.

The results for the submission substance were verfied by another study performed with a surrogate of the submission substance using the same study design (OECD 401, Limit test, GLP). As no irreversible effects were seen and no animal died during the 14 day observation period the resulting LD50 is > 2000 mg/kg bw for rats.

The submission substance was evaluated for Acute Dermal Toxicity in Sprague Dawley Rats as per the OECD guideline for the testing of chemicals No. 402, “Acute Dermal Toxicity - Fixed Dose Procedure”. A starting dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight was selected from the fixed dose levels of 50, 200, 1000 and 2000 mg/kg body weight. No clinical signs and mortalities were observed at the dose level of 2000 mg/kg body weight in range finding study. Hence, during main study, two animals were administered with the same dose level of 2000 mg/kg body weight. No mortality, clinical signs and skin reactions were noted. No treatment related changes in body weight and percent change in body weight with respect to day 1 were noted. Normal increase in body weights were noted during the observation period. No treatment related gross pathological changes were noted at 2000 mg/kg body weight (range finding study and main study) during necropsy. Under the experimental conditions employed and based on the above results, it is concluded that the acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of the submission substance in Sprague Dawley rats is > 2000 mg/kg body weight

An acute dermal toxicity study was performed with a surrogate of the submission substance in RjHan:(WI) Wistar rats, in compliance with OECD Guideline No. 402. A limit test was carried out at 2000 mg/kg body weight (bw) in both sexes (5 rats/sex). The test item was applied as supplied as a single dermal 24-hour exposure followed by a 14-day observation period. Within this study the following results were obtained: No mortality occurred. No clinical signs were observed after the treatment with the test item or during the 14-day observation period and no local dermal signs were existing. The body weight and body weight gain of treated animals did not show any adverse effects. There was no evidence of the test item-related observations at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw at necropsy. Taken from this observations a LD50 is > 2000 mg/kg body weight.


Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
Reliable study performed with the submission substance and a surrogate substance

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint
Reliable study performed with a surrogate of the submission substance and a surrogate substance

Justification for classification or non-classification

The oral LD50 values for the submission substance as well as for a surrogate of the submission substance are > 2000 mg/kg bw, the limit for classification. No lethality was observed after single dermal application of ≥ 2000 mg submission substance and surrogate per kg bw. No data on acute toxicity after inhalation exposure are available.

The submission substance does not have to be classified for acute toxicity according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 or to Council Directive 67/548/EEC.

Furthermore, the submission substance does not have to be classified for specific target organ toxicity – single exposure according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, as no specific toxic effects were observed after acute exposure.
