Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 5 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The acute toxicity of Ethoxylated-o-phenylphenol acrylate was tested in a single dose acute toxicity test, comparable to OECD Guideline 423. No test item related mortality was observed at the highest tested dose level 2000 mg/kg.
Executive summary:

The acute toxicity of Ethoxylated-o-phenylphenol acrylate was tested in a single dose acute toxicity test, comparable to OECD Guideline 423. The acute toxicity class method were used in female SD rats with dose level 300 and 2000 mg/kg. The test item was giving orally with corn oil as vehicle in a total volume of 10 ml/kg bw, which is acceptable according to the OECD guideline. Several clinical signs were observed, such as prone position, lateral position, subdued behavior, irregular respiration, and lacrimation. However, the symptoms were transient and only present at the day of treatment.

No mortality was observed at any of the doses, therefore the acute oral LD50 is above 2000mg/kg.
