Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 5 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
LD50 was considered to 11700 mg/kg bw when rat were treated with 2-Amino-5-methylbenzenesulfonic acid orally.
Executive summary:

In a acute oral toxicity study, rat were treated with 2-Amino-5-methylbenzenesulfonic acid orally.50 % mortality observed at11700 mg/kg bw. Therefore,LD50 was considered to 11700 mg/kg bw when rat were treated with 2-Amino-5-methylbenzenesulfonic acid orally.
