- Executive summary:
Acute dermal toxicity study of 4-methoxybenzyl alcohol (105-13-5) was conducted in rabbit at the concentration of 1250, 2500, and 5000 mg/kg bw. Animals were observed for clinical signs.Mortalities included 1 rabbit from the 2500 g/kg group on day 1, and all 4 rabbits from the 5000 mg/kg group by day 6.Clinical signs of toxicity included loss of coordination and muscle tone in 2 animals at 5000 mg/kg and 1 animal at 2500 mg/kg. Slight to moderate erythema and edema was also observed in all animals. Therefore, LD50 was considered to be 3000 mg/kg with 95% confidential limit of 1940-4060 mg/kg bw, when rabbit was treated with 4-methoxybenzyl alcohol by dermal application.
