Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the experimental conditions adopted, dermal application of the test substance at dose of 2000 mg/kg caused no mortalityand no dermal reactions during a 14 -day period.Under the experimental conditions adopted, the LD50 of the test substance administrated by the dermal route was higher then 2000 mg/kg body weight in Sprague-Dawley rats.
