Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the test conditions, the oral LD50 of the test substance is >2000 mg/kg bw in rats. In accordance with OECD Guideline 423, the LD50 cut-off of the test substance may be considered to be higher than 5000 mg/kg bw by oral route in the rat. Therefore it is not classified according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and according to the Globally Harmonised System of classification and labelling of chemicals (GHS). Therefore the registered substance is considered as non claissifed
Executive summary:

In an acute oral toxicity study performed according to the OECD Guideline 423 and in compliance with GLP, a single dose of 2000 mg/kg bw of the test substance solubilized in olive oil and heated during 5 minutes at ca. 50°C was given by oral gavage to a group of 6 female Sprague Dawley rats. Animals were then observed for mortality, clinical signs and body weight changes for 14 days, and were all sacrificed for macroscopic examinations.

No mortality occurred during the study. No clinical signs related to the administration of the test item were observed during the study The body weight evolution of the animals remained normal throughout the study. The macroscopic examination of the animals at the end of the study did not reveal treatment related changes.

Rat Oral LD50 >2000 mg/kg bw.

Under the test conditions, the oral LD50 of the test substance is >2000 mg/kg bw in rats. In accordance with OECD Guideline 423, the LD50 cut-off of the test substance may be considered to be higher than 5000 mg/kg bw by oral route in the rat. Therefore it is not classified according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and according to the Globally Harmonised System of classification and labelling of chemicals (GHS).

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
olive oil
Details on oral exposure:
VEHICLE
- Concentration in vehicle: ca. 2000 mg/10 mL
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): 10 mL/kg bw
- Justification for choice of vehicle: Olive oil was chosen as it produced the most suitable formulation at the requested concentration.

DOSAGE PREPARATION: In the first and second step of the study, 2.0090 g and 2.0098 g of the test item were weighed and Olive oil was added to two 10 mL volumetric flasks. Just before the administration, the preparations were stirred by vortex then magnetically during 5 minutes at approximately 50°C to obtain thick brown solutions.
Doses:
2000 mg/kg bw
No. of animals per sex per dose:
6 female rats
Control animals:
no
Remarks:
Historical data
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: Clinical observations and mortality were recorded at 30 min, 1h, 3h, 4h, 24h, 48h after administration of the test item and continued daily during 14 days.. Animals were weighed on day D0 (just before administering the test item) and then on D2, D7, and D14.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: Yes; animals were euthanized with sodium pentobarbital (Dolethal®) on D14 and macroscopic observations were noted.

Rat Oral LD50 >2000 mg/kg bw.

Under the test conditions, the oral LD50 of the test substance is >2000 mg/kg bw in rats. In accordance with OECD Guideline 423, the LD50 cut-off of the test substance may be considered to be higher than 5000 mg/kg bw by oral route in the rat. Therefore it is not classified according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and according to the Globally Harmonised System of classification and labelling of chemicals (GHS).
