Results and discussion

Effect levels
Key result
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 5 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Mortality:
occured from 4000 mg/kg bw
Clinical signs:
other: bad general condition, sedation, nausea, increased diuresis
Other findings:

Symptoms occured 1 min after application and were gone after day 5

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The LD50 male/female in Wistar rats (oral, gavage) is >5000 mg/kg. The test item is not classifiable according to the CLP Regulation since the LD50 is >2000 mg/kg.
