- Humidity (%): between 30 to 70
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12

Administration / exposure

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Vehicle:
corn oil
Details on dermal exposure:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: backs of the animals 10% of total body surface was clipped one day before treatment)
- Type of wrap if used: gauze patch with semiocclusive dressing, fixed with elastic adhesive bandage

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): the dressing was removed and the skin was flushed with lukewarm tap water
- Time after start of exposure: 24 after application


TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 2000 mg/kg bw
- Concentration (if solution): 0.25 g/mL
- Application volume/kg bw: 8 mL
- Application: test material was put on the gauze patch with a syringe, then the gauze patch was applied on the intact skin
Duration of exposure:
24
Doses:
2000 mg/kg bw
No. of animals per sex per dose:

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Remarks on result:
other: no animals died within the 14 day observation period
Mortality:
- no deaths occured
Clinical signs:
other: - no systemic signs of toxicity were observed - Marked pink staining of the skin (grade 3 of 3) caused by the test item was noted in all animals on test day 2. The staining persisted at slight degree (grade 1 of 3) in males up to test days 10 (two cases)
Gross pathology:
- all animals killed at the end of the observation period showed no macroscopically visible changes

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: CLP regulation
Conclusions:
Single application of the limit dose of 2000 mg test substance per kg bw onto the skin did not cause lethality in male and female HanBrl: Wist rats during the 14 day observation period, resulting in a LD50 > 2000 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

Male and female rats were subjected to test acute dermal toxicity (OECD TG 402, Limit test). The test substance was administered on the skin in a suspension at the limit dose of 2000 mg/kg bw to 5 male and 5 female rats. No animal died within the observation period, resulting in a LD50 > 2000mg/kg bw.

Classification for acute oral toxicity is not necessary according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
