Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
practically nontoxic
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The oral gavage of 5000 mg/kg bw of the test material did not cause mortality in male and female rats.
Executive summary:

The oral gavage of 5000 mg/kg bw of the test material did not cause mortality in male and female rats. Clinical signs were limited to temporary piloerection hunched posture and abnormal gait shortly after treatment. No adverse effects on body weights or the macroscopic appearance of organs were detected.
