Conclusions:

Executive summary:

Acute oral toxicity of test chemical was examined in rats according to methods similar to OPPTS 870.1100 and OECD 401 guidelines. The 14 days study was performed using rats.

 

The test chemical was prepared in water and was administered by gavage under a dosage-volume of 10 mL/kg bw to groups of 10 fasted rats. Based on a previous study details indicating that LD50 was greater than 1000 mg/kg in male rats, the first dose of the test item to be tested in male rats was 2000 mg/kg. The other tested dose-level administered was 5000 mg/kg (1 group of females, 1 group of males). Negative control groups receiving water only were included in the study. Clinical signs, mortality and body weight were checked for a period of 14 days following the single administration of the test item. All animals were subjected to necropsy and gross pathology was also performed.

 

At the dose-level of 2000 mg/kg, no mortality occurred. Mild depression and piloerection were observed from day 1 (1 hour after dosing) to day 2. Body weight gain was similar to controls and no apparent abnormalities were observed at necropsy.

 

At the dose- level of 5000 mg/kg, 3 out 10 males and 6 out 10 females were found dead on day 2. At necropsy, red lungs and stomachs filled with a clear watery fluid were reported in those animals. In the surviving animals, mild depression and piloerection were observed from day 1 (immediately after dosing) to day 3. Body weight gain was similar to controls and no apparent abnormalities were observed at necropsy.

 

Under the experimental conditions of this study, the acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) for the test chemical in male rats was determined to be >5000 mg/kg and in female rats, the LD50 was considered to be 2000-5000 mg/kg bw.

Conclusions:
The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) for the test chemical using rats was determined to be 2000 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

Data available from the various test chemicals was reviewed to determine the toxic nature of the test chemical. The studies are as mentioned below:

Acute oral toxicity of test chemical was examined in rats according to methods similar to OPPTS 870.1100 and OECD 401 guidelines. The 14 days study was performed using rats. The test chemical was prepared in water and was administered by gavage under a dosage-volume of 10 mL/kg bw to groups of 10 fasted rats. Based on a previous study details indicating that LD50 was greater than 1000 mg/kg in male rats, the first dose of the test item to be tested in male rats was 2000 mg/kg. The other tested dose-level administered was 5000 mg/kg (1 group of females, 1 group of males). Negative control groups receiving water only were included in the study. Clinical signs, mortality and body weight were checked for a period of 14 days following the single administration of the test item. All animals were subjected to necropsy and gross pathology was also performed. At the dose-level of 2000 mg/kg, no mortality occurred. Mild depression and piloerection were observed from day 1 (1 hour after dosing) to day 2. Body weight gain was similar to controls and no apparent abnormalities were observed at necropsy. At the dose- level of 5000 mg/kg, 3 out 10 males and 6 out 10 females were found dead on day 2. At necropsy, red lungs and stomachs filled with a clear watery fluid were reported in those animals. In the surviving animals, mild depression and piloerection were observed from day 1 (immediately after dosing) to day 3. Body weight gain was similar to controls and no apparent abnormalities were observed at necropsy. Under the experimental conditions of this study, the acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) for the test chemical in male rats was determined to be >5000 mg/kg and in female rats, the LD50 was considered to be 2000-5000 mg/kg bw.

Acute oral toxicity study of the test chemical was conducted in rat at the concentration of 7640 mg/kg bw. 50% mortality was observed at 7640 mg/kg bw. Therefore, the acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) was considered to be 7640 mg/kg bw, when rats were treated with test chemical orally.

Acute oral toxicity study of the test chemical was conducted in rats at the concentration of 5750 mg/kg bw. 50% mortality was observed at 5750 mg/kg bw. Therefore, LD50 was considered to be 5750 mg/ kg bw, when rats were treated with test chemical orally.

Based on the data available and applying weight of evidence approach, the acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) for the test chemical using rats was determined to be 2000 mg/kg bw.
