- GENERATION OF TEST ATMOSPHERE / CHAMBER DESCRIPTION
- Exposure apparatus: glass chamber
- Exposure chamber volume: 1 cubic meter
- Method of holding animals in test chamber: individual cage
- Source and rate of air: room air, 250 lpm

- Method of particle size determination:
- Treatment of exhaust air:
- Temperature, humidity, pressure in air chamber:
TEST ATMOSPHERE
- Brief description of analytical method used: nominal basis: weighing the vessel containing the test material before and after the exposure and dividing the net loss in test material weight by the total volume of air passing through the chamber during the exposure. Actual basis: gravimetrically by drawing a known volume of chamber air through a pre-weighed glass-fiber filter. The filter was then re-weighed and the aerosol concentration calculated by dividing filter weight gain by the sample volume. - Analytical verification of test atmosphere concentrations:
- yes
- Remarks:
- gravimetric samples
- Duration of exposure:
- ca. 4 h
- Concentrations:
- 0 or 2.41 mg/ liter (SD 0.75)
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 5/sex/group
- Control animals:
- yes
- Details on study design:
- - Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days, every 15 minutes for the first hour of exposure and at hourly intervals thereafter (up to 4 hours). Once removed from the chamber, daily observations were made for 14 days.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes
- Other examinations performed: clinical signs, body weight,organ weights, histopathology - Statistics:
- Means and standard deviations were calculated. Means for the two groups were compared by a two sample t-test. A standard F-test was used to determine if the variance of the groups was equal. If the variances were equal, testing was based on the t-test. If the variances were unequal, the Smith-Satterthwaite Correction for unequal variances was used.
Results and discussion
Effect levels
- Sex:
- male/female
- Dose descriptor:
- LC50
- Effect level:
- > 2.04 mg/L air (analytical)
- Exp. duration:
- 4 h
- Remarks on result:
- other: All animals survived
- Mortality:
- 0%
- Clinical signs:
- other: During the 14 day post exposure, incidences of material on the fur, hair loss, soft stool, and eye and nasal irritation were observed in the first 6 days. After the sixth day post-exposure, all animals of both sexes appeared normal.
- Body weight:
- No effect.
- Gross pathology:
- Three males and 5 females appeared free of any microscopic abnormalities. A dilated renal pelvis in the kidney of one male and reddened cervical lymph nodes and an absent right testicle in another male was observed.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- The LC50 for the registered substance is > 2.04 mg/l.
- Executive summary:
A group of rats, five per sex, were exposed for 4 hours to a liquid droplet aerosol of the registered substance at a gravimetrically determined mean concentration of 2.04 mg/l. A second comparable group of rats served as an unexposed control. Following the exposure, all animals were observed daily for 14 days. All animals survived the treatment. During the 14 day post exposure, incidences of material on the fur, hair loss, soft stool, and eye and nasal irritation were observed in the first 6 days. After the sixth day post-exposure, all animals of both sexes appeared normal. Based on these results, the 4 hours LC50 is > 2.04 mg/l.
