Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Conclusions:
No deaths, no abnormal symptoms were observed during 90 day study.
Executive summary:

Mice were administered levels of 200 or 2000mg/kg bw per day in their diet for 90 days. At the end of the study no deaths occurred at either dose level. No abnormal symptoms were observed in the gross pathological examination. Hence the NOAELwas greater than 2000 mg/kg/day
