Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified
Conclusions:
The LD50 value was considered to be >5000 mg/kg bw,when five rabbits were treated with test chemical by dermal application following 14 days of observation period.
Executive summary:

In acute dermal toxicity study, five rabbits were treated with test chemical in the concentration of 5000 mg/kg bw by dermal application followed by a 14 days observation period.No mortality was observed in treated rabbits at dose 5000 mg/kg bw. Necropsy was not conducted. Therefore, LD50 value was considered to be >5000 mg/kg bw,when rabbits were treated with test chemical by dermal application.
