Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: CLP criteria not met
Conclusions:
The LD50 of the substance is > 2000 mg/kg bw
Executive summary:

In a test according to OECD 402 Wistar rats (5/sex) received 2000 mg/kg bw of the test substance on the skin during 24 hours. During the 14 day observation period no mortality and clinical signs were observed. Body weight was in normal ranges except for one female. Another female developed scabs. No abnormalities were found at necropsy. The LD50 of the substance is > 2000 mg/kg bw.
