CLASS METHOD (if applicable)
- Rationale for the selection of the starting dose: Based on the all available information on the toxicity of the test material. - Doses:
- 300 mg/kg and 2000 mg/kg.

Day 0 (the day of dosing) to Day 14.
- Frequency of observations and weighing:
Deaths and overt signs of toxicity were recorded 1/2, 1, 2, and 4 hours after dosing and then daily for 14 days. Mortality data was used for the estimation of LD50. Individual bodyweights were recorded prior to dosing and 7 and 14 days after the treatment.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: At the end of the observation period the surviving animals were killed by cervical dislocation. All animals were subjected to gross necropsy. This consisted of an external examination and opening of the abdominal and thoracic cavities for examination of major organs. The appearance of any macroscopic abnormalities was recorded. No tissues were retained. - Statistics:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the female Sprague-Dawley CD strain rat was estimated from the flow chart in Appendix 2 in the OECD Test Guideline 423 as being greater than 2500 mg/kg bodyweight. The test material does not meet the criteria for classification according to EU classification system (Council Directive 67/548/EEC and Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008).
- Executive summary:
Introduction. The study was performed to assess the acute oral toxicity of the test material following a single oral administration in the Sprague‑Dawley CD strain rat. The method was designed to meet the requirements of the following:
§ OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals No 423 “Acute Oral Toxicity – Acute Toxic Class Method” (adopted 17 December 2001)
Method. A group of 3 fasted females was treated with the test material at a dose level of 300 mg/kg bodyweight. Based on the results from this dose level, further groups of fasted females were treated at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bodyweight. Dosing was performed sequentially.
For the purpose of the 300 mg/kg dose level, the test material administered orally as a solution in arachis oil BP and for the 2000 mg/kg dose level the test material was administered orally undiluted. Clinical signs and bodyweight development were monitored during the study. All animals were subjected to gross necropsy.
Results.
Mortality. There were no deaths.
Clinical Observations. Hunched posture, ataxia and diarrhoea were noted in 3 animals at 2000 mg/kg/day, 4 hours after dosing. There were no signs of systematic toxicity noted during the study in 3 animals treated at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg or animals treated a a dose level of 300 mg/kg.
Bodyweight. All animals showed expected gains in bodyweight over the study period.
Necropsy. Raised white foci was noted n the non-glandular region of the stomach of animals treated at 2000 mg/kg/day. No abnormalities were noted at necropsy of animals at 300 mg/kg/day.
Conclusion. The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the female Sprague‑Dawley CD strain rat wasestimated from the flow chart in Appendix 2 in the test guideline as being greater than 2500 mg/kg bodyweight. The test material does not meet the criteria for classification according to EU classification system (Council Directive 67/548/EEC and Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008).
