Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- In an acute oral toxicity study in Sprague Dawley rats the LD50 (male/female) was >2000 mg/kg bw.
- Executive summary:
In an acute oral toxicity study (8279), groups (5/sex) of Sprague Dawley rats were given a single oral dose of 1,2-Diethoxypropane in Tween-80 by gavage at 2000 mg/kg bw. Animals were then observed for 14 days.
LD50 (male/female): > 2000 mg/kg bw.
Clinical signs were noted 30 mins - 4 hrs after dosing, included piloerection, soiled coat, reduced activity, ataxia and subdued behaviour. There was no mortality and no abnormalities were detected at necropsy. Body weight gains were acceptable.
