Conclusions:
In a study according to OECD Test guideline 420 (acute oral toxicity) under GLP, the rat LD50 of the test substance was determined to be > 2000mg/kg bodyweight and is therefore considered to be practically nontoxic.
Executive summary:

The acute oral toxicity of the test substance was evaluated in a study according to OECD Test Guideline 420 under GLP. A limit test with the test substance dose of 2000 mg/kg bodyweight was performed. The substance was applied with the vehicle sesame oil by oral gavage to five Wistar rats of both sexes, which were observed for 14 days post application. No mortality occured. Body weights gain was not impaired, while no pathological abnormalities were found. Clinical signs like diarrhoea, pilorection or decreased motor acitivity was observed maximally until day 2. Based on these results, the rat oral acute toxicity LD50 of the test substance was > 2000mg/kg bodyweight. Therefore, the test substance is considered practically non-toxic.

- Housing: individually
- Diet: ad libitum
- Water: ad libitum

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 20 +- 5
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12
Type of coverage:
occlusive
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Details on dermal exposure:
Clip the application site (a band around the trunk) free of hair. Abrade the skin of both groups by making longitudinal abrasions every 2-3 cm such as to penetrate the stratum corneum but not the dermis. Apply the test substance uniformly to at least 10% of the body surface (240 cm2 ) of each animal. Apply the material under 2-ply gauze then wrap the trunk of each animal in plastic sheeting to retard evaporation and keep the test substance in contact with the skin. 24 hours after application, remove the wrappings and wipe the skin to remove any remaining test substance.
Duration of exposure:
24 h
Doses:
2 g/kg b.w.
No. of animals per sex per dose:
5
Control animals:
yes, concurrent no treatment
Details on study design:
Observe the animals for at least 14 days or until signs of reversible toxicity subside whichever occurs later. Observations shall be made frequently during the day of dosing and twice daily thereafter (once in the morning and again in the late afternoon). Record the nature, onset, severity, and duration of each toxic and pharmacologic sign, such as abnormal or unusual cardiovascular, respiratory, excretory, behavioral, or other activity, as well as signs indicating an adverse effect on the centrai nervous system (paralysis, lack of coordination, staggering); pupillary reaction; and time of
death. Also, record the weight of each animal on the day·of dosing, weekly thereafter and at death.
All animals living at the termination of the observation period shall be sacrificed.
All test animals shall be subjected to a complete gross necropsy following death. All abnormalities shall be recorded. In addition, all treated skin tissue shall be subjec to histological examination.

Mortality:
One of ten rabbits was found dead on day 4.

no findings except in dead rabbit (friable and pale liver appearing mottled; dehydrated and very dark peritoneum: abdomial skin ahrd, cracked with sognificant erythema seen)
Other findings:

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
In a study according to a FDA guideline, which is equivalent to OECD guideline 423, the acute dermal LD50 to rabbits of the test substance was determined to exceed 2000mg/kg body weight.
Executive summary:

A limit test with a dose of 2000 mg/kg bodyweight was performed. The test substance was applied unchanged under occlusive conditions for 24h to the skin of ten New Zealand White rabbits of both sexes, which were observed for 14 days post application. One rabbit was found dead on day 4. Body weights stagnated or increased, while no pathological abnormalities were present in all rabbits, except the dead rabbit.

Thus, the rabbit acute dermal toxicity LD50 of the test substance exceeded 2000mg/kg bodyweight.

Additional information

The acute oral toxicity of the test substance was evaluated in a study according to OECD Test Guideline 420 under GLP. A limit test with the test substance dose of 2000 mg/kg bodyweight was performed. The substance was applied with the vehicle sesame oil by oral gavage to five Wistar rats of both sexes, which were observed for 14 days post application. No mortality occured. Body weights gain was not impaired, while no pathological abnormalities were found. Clinical signs like diarrhoea, pilorection or decreased motor acitivity were observed maximally until day 2. Based on these results, the rat oral acute toxicity LD50 of the test substance was > 2000mg/kg bodyweight. Therefore, the test substance is considered practically non-toxic.

The acute dermal toxicity of a close homologue (CAS-No. 174333 -80 -3) of the registered substance, which lacks a methyl group at the oxime carbon atom, has been tested in a study according to a FDA guideline.

A limit test with the test substance dose of 2000 mg/kg bodyweight was performed. The test substance was applied unchanged under occlusive conditions for 24h to the skin of ten New Zealand White rabbits of both sexes, which were observed for 14 days post application. One rabbit was found dead on day 4. Body weights stagnated or increased, while no pathological abnormalities were present in all rabbits, except the dead rabbit. Thus, the rabbit acute dermal toxicity LD50 of the test substance was > 2000mg/kg bodyweight and is therefore considered practically non-toxic.

Based on this read-across, the registered substance is also considered to be practically nontoxic by dermal route.

Since inhalation is no primary route of exposure the registered substance was not tested for this endpoint.

Justification for classification or non-classification

By applying the GHS classification system for chemical substances according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 the registered substance has not to be labelled for its acute toxicity.
