Administration / exposure

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Vehicle:
water
Remarks:
bidistilled water
Details on dermal exposure:
Approximately 24 h before treatment, the backs of the animals were clipped with an electric clipper, exposing an area of approximately 10 % of the total body surface. Only those animals without injury or irritation on the skin were used in the test.
On test day 1, the test article was applied at a dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight evenly on the intact skin with a syringe and covered with a semi-occlusive dressing. The dressing was wrapped around the abdomen and fixed with an elastic adhesive bandage. Application volume/kg body weight: 4.0 ml. Twenty-four h after the application the dressing was removed and the skin was flushed with lukewarm tap water and dried with disposable paper towels. Thereafter, the reaction sites were assessed.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The median lethal dose (LD50) of FAT 40'571/A after single dermal administration to rats is greater than 2000 mg/kg body weight.
Executive summary:

An acute dermal semi-occlusive toxicity study was carried out with FAT 40571/A in Wistar rats of both sex according to OECD 402 guideline. During study period clinical signs, body weight, mortality and gross pathologicala findings were determined. No clinical signs of toxicological relevance were noted during the daily observations in rats of both sexes except the red coloration on the skin was produced by the test item itself, described as a dark red/brown powder. The red coloration did not prevent the assessment of the skin: a maculated erythema was seen in one female. However, an inflammatory response was delayed to later time period by developing crusts in most of the male and female animals after a 24- h semi-occlusive application. The crusts were transient in 2 males and persisting up to the end of the study in one male and in four females. Clinical signs such as red skin (5/5), crusts (3/4), maculate erythema (0/1) respectively.

Three female animals showed a very slight loss of body weight during the first week of observation. They recovered during the second week of observation. The body weight of the other animals was within the range commonly recorded for animals of this strain and age.

There was no mortality find during the study course. There were no gross pathological findings observed.

So, based on the study results and absence of mortality the median lethal dose (LD50) of FAT 40'571/A after single dermal administration to rats of both sexes, observed over a period of 14 days is greater than 2000 mg/kg body weight
