Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
According to the SIAR , an acute dermal toxicity study on barium chloride was conducted under OECD TG 402 in compliance with GLP: in this study, the dermal LD50 was greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in rats. However, the primary source for this study is not available: the SIAR refers to a NIER report dated 2008.
