MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED: 4.5 mL/kg bw (specific gravity 1.1)
- Rationale for the selection of the starting dose: Preliminary study

Doses:

5000 mg/kg bw (4.54 mL/kg bw)

No. of animals per sex per dose:

5/sex/dose

Control animals:

no

Details on study design:

Five males and five females were treated at 5000 mg/kg bw using syringe and plastic catheter (8 choke). Animals were observed after 5 h on day 1 and in subsequent days the animals were observed once in the morning and again at the end of the experiment. Observation period was 14 d.

- Frequency of observations and weighing: Clinical observations done soon after dosing and remainder of Day 1. For the subsequent days observations were done in the morning and at the end of the experimental day.

- Necropsy of survivors performed: Yes along with macroscopic examinations of thoracic, abdominal and cranial cavities. Marcoscopic appearance of abnormal organs was also recorded.

- Other examinations performed: Body weights of each rat was examined at Days 1, 8 and 15 or at death.

Results and discussion

Effect levels

Sex:

male/female

Dose descriptor:

LD50

Effect level:

> 5 000 mg/kg bw

Based on:

test mat.

Mortality:

No mortality at 5000 mg/kg bw

Clinical signs:

other: other: Pilo-erection in all rats within 5 min after dosing which remained for 1 d followed by increased salivation during 1st 2 h after treatment. No other clinical signs were observed and recovery was complete by Day 3.

Other findings:

Terminal autopsy was normal.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

other: CLP criteria not met

Remarks:

Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU

Conclusions:

Under the test condition, the acute lethal oral dose of di-TMPTTA was > 5,000 mg/kg bw.

Executive summary:

A study was conducted to assess the acute oral toxicity of di-TMPTTA according to OECD Guideline 401 and EU Method B.1, in compliance with GLP. Five males and five females were administered a single oral dose of 5,000 mg/kg bw by gavage. Animals were observed for 14 d. On Day 1, pilo-erection was seen within 5 min of dosing along with increased salivation during 2 h after treatment. Low body weight gain during the first week of the study was recorded but all rats achieved anticipated weight gains between Days 8 and 15. No other clinical signs were observed and recovery, judged by appearance and behaviour, was complete by Day 3. Under the test conditions, the acute lethal oral dose of the test substance was > 5,000 mg/kg bw (Liggett 1989).
