Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified
Conclusions:
The LD50 value was considered to be >5000 mg/kg bw,when rabbits were treated with test chemical by dermal application.
Executive summary:

Acute dermal toxicity study was conducted in rabbits by using test chemical at the concentration of 5000 mg/kg bw by dermal application. No mortality was observed in treated rabbits at dose 5000 mg/kg bw. Therefore, LD50 value was considered to be >5000 mg/kg bw, when rabbits were treated with test chemical by dermal application.
