Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male
Dose descriptor:
other: LC30
Effect level:
1 000 mg/m³ air (nominal)
Based on:
test mat.
Exp. duration:
6 h
Mortality:
6 out of 20 animals of the high concentration group died after the first exposure or the day after. The others of this group were kept for 14 days (as if it were an acute inhalation study).
Clinical signs:
other: Several respiratory tract changes
Body weight:
Decreased
Gross pathology:
Congestion, oedema and multifocal haemorrhages in animals of the high concentration group

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 4 based on GHS criteria
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
Based on a 6-h LC30 value (30% mortality folowing a 6-h exposure), it may be assumed that the 4-h LC50 value will be between 1000 and 5000 mg/m3.
