Additional information

Key study: The acute oral toxicity study based on a fixed dose method was performed according to OECD Guideline 420 (GLP study). The experiment commenced with a sighting study in which the test item was first administered to a female rat at a single dose of 300 mg/kg bw but, since no signs of toxicity were observed, a dose of 2000 mg/kg bw was given to a second rat. A slight decrease in locomotor activity and tremors occurred 3 hours post-administration. The animal died on the first day of the observation period. On the grounds of these results, four animals in the main study were given the test item at a dose of 300 mg/kg bw. After the administration of the test item, the animals were observed for 14 days. No signs of toxicity were found and all animals survived the experiment. During the 14-day experiment, body weights of the animals increased. Regarding the gross examinations, no lesions were found in the animals. The substance was classified as category 4 according to CLP Regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008 since the dose of 2000 mg/kg bw caused death in the sighting study.


Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
Only one study available.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the available results the substance is classified for Acute Toxicity Category 4 according to CLP Regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008.
