Any other information on results incl. tables

The incidence of mortality was at 2000 mg/kg (females) 1/3, at 2000 mg/kg (males) 2/3 and at 200 mg/kg (males) 0/3. Macroscopic post mortem examination of the animals that were found dead during the study revealed multiple effects at several target organs.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
harmful
Remarks:
Migrated information if swallowed (R22) Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The oral LD50 value of STI571 Y5A in Wistar rats was established to be within the range or 200-2000 mg/kg body weight. Based on these results and according to the EC criteria for classification and labelling requirements for dangerous substances and preparations (Guidelines in Commission Directive 93/21/EEC), 8TI571 Y5A should be labelled as: harmful if swallowed (R22) and according CLP EEC 1272/2008 cassified in Category 4, acute oral toxicity.
