Conclusions:

Executive summary:

The test item (purity: not stated) was subjected to test acute dermal toxicity in albino rabbits. This study was conducted according to the requirements of Federal Register, 1961 (Vol 26, No. 155, pages 7333 -7341). The undiluted substance was applied at a limit dose of 5000 mg/kg bw onto the intact or abraded skin of the animals (3 animals per condition) for up to 24 h under occlusive conditions.

During the 14 days observation period dry and cracked skin could be noted, but no animal died. The given results lead to a LD50 > 5000 mg test item per kg bw (LD0 = 5000 mg/kg bw; Shelanski and Moldovan, 1971).

This study was judged to be reliable with restrictions (RL2), due to missing information on substance purity and the missing necropsy data.
