Administration / exposure

Type of coverage:

semiocclusive

Details on dermal exposure:

Preparation of the Animals:
The animals were marked for individual identification by tail painting.
Approximately 24 hours before the test, the fur was removed from the dorsal area of the trunk using an electric clipper. Care was taken to avoid
abrading the skin, and only animals with healthy intact skin were used.
No less than 10% of the body surface was cleared for the application.
Prior to the application a detailed clinical observation was made of all animals.
Application:
The test item was applied at a single dose, uniformly over an area which was approximately 10% of the total body surface.
The test item was held in contact with the skin by a dressing throughout a 24-hour period. The dressing consisted of a gauze-dressing and
non-irritating tape and was fixed with an additional dressing in a suitable manner.

Duration of exposure:

The test item was held in contact with the skin throughout a 24-hour period. At the end of the exposure period the residual test item was removed
using aqua ad injectionem (AlleMan Pharma, lot no. 260813_1, expiry date: 31/07/2016).

Doses:

The test item was applied at a single dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight to each animal.

No. of animals per sex per dose:

5 male and 5 female

Control animals:

not required

Details on study design:

Observation period:
All animals were observed for 14 days after dosing

Weight Assessment:
The animals were weighed on day 1 (prior to the application) and on days 8 and 15.

Clinical Examination:
careful clinical examination was made several times on the day of dosing (at least once during the first 30 minutes and with special attention given during the first 4 hours post-dose). As soon as symptoms were noticed they were recorded. Thereafter, the animals were observed for clinical signs once daily until the end of the observation period. All abnormalities were recorded.
Cageside observations included changes in the skin and fur, eyes and mucous membranes. Also respiratory, circulatory, autonomic and central nervous systems and somatomotor activity and behaviour pattern were examined. Attention was directed to observations of tremors, convulsions, salivation, diarrhoea, lethargy, sleep and coma.

Pathology:
At the end of the observation period the surviving animals were sacrificed with an overdosage of pentobarbital injected intraperitoneally (Narcoren®, Merial) at the dosage of approximately 8 mL/kg bw. All animals were subjected to gross necropsy. All gross pathological changes were recorded and in case of findings the tissues were preserved for a possible histopathological evaluation. The preserved tissues of which no histopathological evaluation was made will be discarded 3 months after the release of the final report unless otherwise agreed upon with the sponsor.

Evaluation of Results:
Individual reactions of each animal were recorded at each time of observation.
Toxic response data were recorded by sex and dose level.
Nature, severity and duration of clinical observations were described.
The body weight changes were summarised in a tabular form.
Necropsy findings were described.
On the basis of the test results, the test item may be classified in one of the following classes in conformity with the criteria given in Annex VI to Commission Directive 2001/59/EC:
• Very toxic
Substances and preparations shall be classified as very toxic, and assigned the symbol “T+” and indication of danger “very toxic” in accordance with the criteria specified below:
R27 Very toxic in contact with skin
- LD50 dermal, rat or rabbit: <= 50 mg/kg
• Toxic

• Harmful
Substances and preparations shall be classified as harmful, and assigned the symbol “Xn” and indication of danger “harmful” in accordance with the criteria specified below. Risk phrases shall be assigned in accordance with the following criteria:
R21 Harmful in contact with skin
- LD50 dermal, rat or rabbit: 400 < LD50 <= 2000 mg/kg
On the basis of the test results, the following risk phrases may be assigned in conformity with the criteria given in Annex I of Regulation (EC) 1272/2008:

Category 2: LD50 > 50 mg/kg <= 200 mg/kg. DANGER. Skull and crossbones in diamond. Fatal in contact with skin.
Category 3: LD50 > 200 mg/kg <= 1000 mg/kg. DANGER. Skull and crossbones in diamond. Toxic in contact with skin.
Category 4: LD50 > 1000 mg/kg <= 2000 mg/kg. WARNING. Exclamation point in diamond. Harmful in contact with skin.
On the basis of the test results, the following risk phrases may be assigned in conformity with the criteria given in GHS - Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals, third revised edition, July 2009:
Category 1: LD50 <= 50 mg/kg. DANGER. Skull and crossbones in diamond. Fatal in contact with skin.
Category 2: LD50 > 50 mg/kg <= 200 mg/kg. DANGER. Skull and crossbones in diamond. Fatal in contact with skin.
Category 3: LD50 > 200 mg/kg <= 1000 mg/kg. DANGER. Skull and crossbones in diamond. Toxic in contact with skin.
Category 4: LD50 > 1000 mg/kg <= 2000 mg/kg. WARNING. Exclamation point in diamond. Harmful in contact with skin.
Category 5: LD50 > 2000 mg/kg <= 5000 mg/kg. WARNING. No symbol. May be harmful in contact with skin.
