Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
No animals died at the 5.0 mL/kg dose level. Two male rats died at the 10 mL/kg dose level, no female rats died at this dose level. The estimated LD50 was calculated to be > 10 mL/kg (i.e., >7600 mg/kg) for females and 10 mg/kg (i.e., 7600 mg/kg) for male rats.
Executive summary:

In an acute oral toxicity study, two groups of four male and four female, fasted, approximately 12 week old, Wistar rats were given a single oral dose of Internal olefin 114 LP11 at doses of 5.0 and 10 mL/kg and observed for 9 days. 

 

No animals died at the 5.0 mL/kg dose level. Two male rats died at the 10 mL/kg dose level, no female rats died at this dose level. There were no treatment related clinical signs, necropsy data was provided. Animals who did not survive were reported to not eat or drink during the observation period, thus loosing weight. The oral LD50 was estimated to be approximately > 10 mL/kg in females (i.e., >7600 mg/kg) and 10 mL/kg (7600 mg/kg) in males.

 

This study received a Klimisch score of 2 and is classified as reliable with restriction because although it is an acceptable and well documented study report a GLP statement was not provided and details regarding the test material and animal husbandry was not provided.
