Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of sulphanilic acid in mouse was found to be >3200 mg/kg of body weight. Acute toxicity of sulphanilic acid to mouse indicates that sulphanilic acid does not exhibits acute toxicity by the oral route.
Executive summary:

The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of sulphanilic acid in mouse was found to be >3200 mg/kg of body weight. Acute toxicity of sulphanilic acid to mouse indicates that sulphanilic acid does not exhibits acute toxicity by the oral route.
