Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Charles River (UK) Ltd, Margate, Kent, UK
- Age at study initiation: approximately 8 weeks
- Weight at study initiation: males: 288 - 309 g; females: 233 - 259 g
- Housing: The animals were housed in suspended polypropylene cages furnished with woodflakes. The animals were housed individually during the 24-hour exposure period and in groups of five, by sex, for the remainder of the study.
- Diet: Free access to food (Rat and Mouse SQC Expanded Diet No. 1, Special Diets Services Limited, Witham, Essex, UK)
- Water: Free access to drinking water
- Acclimation period: At least 5 days

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): set to maintain 19 - 25
- Humidity (%): set to maintain 30 - 70
- Air changes (per hr): At least 15
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12

Administration / exposure

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Details on dermal exposure:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: area of shorn skin
- % coverage: approximately 10% of the total body surface area
- Type of wrap if used: A piece of surgical gauze was placed over the treatment area and semi-occluded with a piece of selfadhesive bandage.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing: The treated skin and surrounding hair was wiped with cotton wool moistened with distilled water to remove any residual test material.
- Time after start of exposure: 24 hours
Duration of exposure:
24 hours
Doses:
2000 mg/kg bw
No. of animals per sex per dose:
5
Control animals:
not required
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations:
Mortality and clinical signs: The animals were observed for deaths or overt signs of toxicity 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 hours after dosing and subsequently once daily for 14 days. After removal of the dressings and subsequently once daily for 14 days, the test sites were examined for evidence of primary irritation and scored for skin reactions.
Bodyweights: Individual bodyweights were recorded prior to application of the test material on Day 0 and on Days 7 and 14.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: At the end of the study the animals were killed by cervical dislocation and subjected to gross pathological examination. This consisted of an external examination and opening of the abdominal and thoracic cavities. The appearance of any macroscopic abnormalities was recorded.
Statistics:
Not performed.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not acute dermally toxic
Remarks:
according to CLP 1272/2008 and its amendments
Conclusions:
The acute dermal toxicity of the substance was >2000 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

In this study performed to OECD TG 402 guideline and GLP principles, 10 rats (5 males and 5 females) were administered to the substance at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. No deaths occurred and there were no signs of systemic toxicity. All animals showed expected gains in bodyweight over the study period. There were no signs of dermal irritation and no abnorrnalities were noted at necropsy. The acute dermal LD50 for the substance in male and female rats was determined to be >2000 mg/kg bw.
