Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

Exposusre of 12 rats for 10 min against a vapour saturated test atmosphere caused no death; exposure for 30 min to 6 rats caused the death of 3/6 rats. Clinical signs were displayed of all animals and included marked irritations of the mucous membranes, dyspnea and gasping (BASF 1970)
