Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
In conclusion, the test article RM90, when administered by dermal route to the rat, did not cause mortality or show appreciable toxic effects at the limit dose of 2000mg/kg. The LD50 by dermal route is considered to be higher than 2000mg/kg.
