ČSN 757111)- Acclimation period: 1 week- Fasting: 20 hours before oral aplicationENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS- Temperature (°C): 22±2- Humidity (%): 30 – 70%- Air changes (per hr): not specified- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12 /12

Route of administration:

oral: gavage

Vehicle:

water

Details on oral exposure:

VEHICLE - Concentration in vehicle: 20% suspension in water(based on weight of animal - volume 1 ml/100 g bw) MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED: 1 ml/100 g bw

Doses:

2000 mg/kg

No. of animals per sex per dose:

5 males and 5 females/ dose in main studyThe difference in the weight of animals among a group not exceed 20%

Control animals:

no

Details on study design:

- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days- Frequency of observation: after aplication, after 30 mins, after 3 hours, next day morning and afternoon, than dailyweighing: just before aplication and in the end of test- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes, macroscopic examination of muscles and organs (incl. their size, colour, shape, structure)- Other examinations performed: clinical signs, body weight,organ weights, histopathology, other:body weight and clinical signs (appearance of skin, fur, visible mucous membranes, nutritional status, psychic activity, somatomotoric activity, response to stimuli, lacrimation, examination of the function of the respiratory, digestive, urogenital and circulatory apparatus).

Preliminary study:

The selection of dose 2g/kg bw was based on orientative dose finding study.

Key result

Sex:

male/female

Dose descriptor:

LD50

Effect level:

> 2 000 mg/kg bw

Based on:

test mat. (total fraction)

Mortality:

no mortality observed

Clinical signs:

no clinical signs of intoxication observed

Body weight:

weight gains in females were lower than their physiologic possibilities

Gross pathology:

no changes

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

After a single oral administration of the test substance to laboratory rats (2g/kg bw) no signs of intoxication were detected by clinical and pathological examination.

Executive summary:

In the sample Ostazinová žluť H8-G, the acute oral toxicity test was performed on the Wistar rats.

Examination of acute oral toxicity revealed that the rat LD50 was greater than 2000 mg/kg of body weight.

The acute oral toxicity testing was performed according to OECD methodology No. 401.
