Key result
Sex:

Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
2 925 mg/kg bw
Based on:
other: CAS 68411-31-4
Mortality:
Yes. Mortality rates can be found in the table below section 'any other information on results inl. tables'.
Clinical signs:
Yes; observed approximately half to two hours after administration of the test material: Sedation, ataxia, hypothermia, diarrhoea, cowering posture, tremor, horrent fur , dyspnoea, ventral position (temporarily) and diuresis. The symptoms dissappeared within 72 hours after treatment.
Body weight:
No effects observed.
Gross pathology:
Post mortem examinations revealed hyperaemia of mucous membranes of the GI tract in some animals; mucous membranes were partially pale.The GI tract contents were thin, foamy and slimy, partially showing yellow-orange or red-brownish discolouration. Some animals showed tympanites of stomach and intestine. Furthermore, the intestinal mucous membrane showed convulsion and hyperaemia in some animals.
Other findings:
- Organ weights: not examined
- Histopathology: no data

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this test the LD50 for the active material (CAS 68411-31-4) is 2925 mg/kg bw and hence, the substance shall not be classified for acute oral toxicity.
Executive summary:

In an acute oral toxicity study 4 groups of young female and male Bor: WISW rats were given a single oral dose of Marlopon AT 50 (50% LAS TEA, 1% neutral oil, 1% triethanolamin, 3.5% treithanolaminesulfate, water) at doses of 3980, 5010, 6310, 10000 mg /kg bw mg/kg bw (dry material concentrations (CAS No 68411 -31 -4): 2211,2783, 3506, 5556 mg/kg bw) and observed for 14 days.

Oral LD50 Combined =  2925 mg dry material/kg  bw

The dry material CAS 68411 -31-4 is of low toxicity based on the LD50 in males and females. No classification and labelling for acute oral toxicity are required.                                                                                

Treatment with the test product resulted in the following clinical signs that were observed approximately half to two hours after administration of the test material: sedation, ataxia, hypothermia, diarrhoea, cowering posture, tremor, horrent fur, dyspnoea, ventral position (temporarily) and diuresis. The symptoms dissappeared within 72 hours after treatment. Post mortem examinations revealed hyperaemia of mucous membranes of the GI tract in some animals; mucous membranes were partially pale. The GI tract contents were thin, foamy and slimy, partially showing yellow-orange or red-brownish discolouration. Some animals showed tympanites of stomach and intestine. Furthermore, the intestinal mucous membrane showed convulsion and hyperaemia in some animals. No effects were observed at the lowest dose tested.
