- Source: Elevage JANVIER LABS, France
- Females (if applicable) nulliparous and non-pregnant: Yes
- Age at study initiation: 8 or 9 weeks
- Weight at study initiation: 175-218 g
- Fasting period before study: Food was removed on Day 1 and then redistributed 4 hours after the test item administration.
- Housing: Animals were housed by group of three in solid-bottomed clear polycarbonate cages with a stainless steel mesh lid.
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): Foodstuff (ENVIGO - 2016), ad libitum
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): Drinking water (tap-water from public distribution system), ad libitum
- Acclimation period: At least 5 days

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature: 19-27°C
- Humidity: 30-70%
- Air changes: At least 10/hour
- Photoperiod: 12 hours dark / 12 hours light

Route of administration:

oral: gavage

Vehicle:

unchanged (no vehicle)

Details on oral exposure:

In the first and second step of the study, the test item was administered by gavage under a volume of 1.90 mL/kg body weight (corresponding to 2 g/kg, according to the calculated density) using a suitable graduated syringe fitted with an oesophageal metal canula.

Doses:

2000 mg/kg body weight

No. of animals per sex per dose:

3 female rats (Step 1)
3 female rats (Step 2)
total og 6 females at the dose 2 000 mg/kg bw

Control animals:

no

Details on study design:

- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: Clinical observations and mortality were recorded at 30 minutes, 1 hour, 3 hours, 4 hours, and then once daily for 14 days. Animals were weighed on Day 0 (just before administering the test item) and then on Day 2, Day 7 and Day 14.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: Yes; animals were euthanized with sodium pentobarbital on Day 14 and macroscopic observations were noted.

Statistics:

No data

Key result

Sex:

female

Dose descriptor:

LD50

Effect level:

> 2 000 mg/kg bw

Based on:

test mat.

Mortality:

No mortality occurred during the study.

Clinical signs:

other: No clinical signs related to the administration of the test item were observed during the study.

Gross pathology:

The macroscopic examination of the animals at the end of the study did not reveal treatment related changes.

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

The LD50 of test item is higher than 2000 mg/kg body weight. In accordance with O.E.C.D. Test Guideline No. 423, the LD50 cut-off of the test item may be considered as 5000 mg/kg body weight by oral route in the rat.
Test item does not have to be classified in accordance with the Regulation EC No. 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures. No signal word or hazard statement is required.

Executive summary:

In an acute oral toxicity study performed according to the OECD Guideline 423 and in compliance with GLP, a single dose of 2000 mg/kg bw of the test substance was given by oral gavage to a group of 6 female Wistar rats. Animals were then observed for mortality and clinical signs of toxicity for 14 days.

No mortality occurred during the study. No clinical signs related to the administration of the test item were observed during the study.Th e body weight evolution of the animals remained normal during the study. The macroscopic examination of the animals at the end of the study did not reveal any treatment related changes.

Rat Oral LD50 >2000 mg/kg bw.

Under the test conditions, the oral LD50 of the test substance is >2000 mg/kg bw in rats. In accordance with OECD Guideline 423, the LD50 cut-off of the test substance may be considered to be >5000 mg/kg bw by oral route in the rat. Therefore it is not classified according to the Regulation (EC) N° 1272-2008 and according to the Globally Harmonised System of classification and labelling of chemicals (GHS). No signal word or hazard statement is required.

Additional information

In an acute oral toxicity study performed according to the OECD Guideline 423 and in compliance with GLP, a single dose of 2000 mg/kg bw of the test substance was given by oral gavage to a group of 6 female Wistar rats. Animals were then observed for mortality and clinical signs of toxicity for 14 days.

No mortality occurred during the study. No clinical signs related to the administration of the test item were observed during the study.Th e body weight evolution of the animals remained normal during the study. The macroscopic examination of the animals at the end of the study did not reveal any treatment related changes.

Rat Oral LD50 >2000 mg/kg bw.

Under the test conditions, the oral LD50 of the test substance is >2000 mg/kg bw in rats. In accordance with OECD Guideline 423, the LD50 cut-off of the test substance may be considered to be >5000 mg/kg bw by oral route in the rat. Therefore it is not classified according to the Regulation (EC) N° 1272-2008 and according to the Globally Harmonised System of classification and labelling of chemicals (GHS). No signal word or hazard statement is required.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Harmonized classification:

The registered substance has no harmonized classification according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.

Self-classification:

Acute toxicity via Oral route:

Based on the available information, the registered substance is:

-not classified according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 and GHS.
