POTASSIUM METHANOLATE<br />

5. TOXICITY ID: 865-33-8<br />

DATE: 28.06.2006<br />

Number: 12<br />

ADMINISTRATION:<br />

- Type of exposure: inhalation of an atmosphere enriched with the volatile<br />

components at 20 °C. 200 l/h air were piped through a 5 cm layer of the<br />

product.<br />

Reliability : (2) valid with restrictions<br />

Well documented report, details missing.<br />

Flag : Critical study for SIDS endpoint<br />

05.08.2005 (2)<br />

Type : other: acute inhalation risk test (IRT)<br />

Value :<br />

Species : rat<br />

Strain : no data<br />

Sex : no data<br />

Number of animals : 12<br />

Vehicle :<br />

Doses : dust enriched atmosphere at room temperature<br />

Exposure time : 7 hour(s)<br />

Method : other: IRT<br />

Year : 1979<br />

GLP : no<br />

Test substance : other TS: <strong>Sodium</strong> methylate<br />

Result : No mortality.<br />

No symptoms were observed during the study.<br />

Pathological examination at termination of the study did not reveal any<br />

macroscopic organ changes.<br />

Test condition : Inhalation of an dust enriched atmosphere at room temperature. 200 l<br />

air/hour were piped through a 5 cm layer of the product.<br />

Test substance : <strong>Sodium</strong> methylate as prescribed by 1.1 - 1.4 of CAS 124-41-4<br />

Reliability : (2) valid with restrictions<br />

Well documented report, details missing.<br />

Flag : Critical study for SIDS endpoint<br />

5.1.3 ACUTE DERMAL TOXICITY<br />

Type : LD50<br />

Value : > 2000 - mg/kg bw<br />

Species : rat<br />

Strain : Sprague-Dawley<br />

Sex : male/female<br />

Number of animals : 6<br />

Vehicle : water<br />

Doses : 1000, 2000 mg/kg bw<br />

Method : other<br />

Year : 1979<br />

GLP : no<br />

Test substance : other TS: <strong>Sodium</strong> methylate 50% aqueous solution<br />

Remark : As the substance was tested in aqeous solution and sodium methylate<br />

hydrolyses rapidly to methanol and sodium hydroxide, in fact the hydrolysis<br />

products have been tested.<br />

Result : MORTALITY: No deaths occurred at either dose level<br />

CLINICAL SIGNS: irregular breathing and bad general condition. Skin:<br />

necrosis after the 24 hour application.<br />

NECROPSY FINDINGS:<br />

No macroscopic organ changes apart from the skin necrosis were<br />

observed.<br />
