Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this study the median lethal dose (LD50) of 4,4'-Diamino-3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl-dicyclohexylmethane after dermal application was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in male and female rats.
Executive summary:

In an acute dermal toxicity study (Limit Test), young adult Wistar rats (5 males and 5 females) were dermally exposed to a single dose of 2000 mg/kg bw of the undiluted test item 4,4'-Diamino-3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl-dicyclohexylmethane to the clipped skin (dorsal and dorso-lateral parts of the trunk) and covered by semi- occlusive dressing for 24 hours. The application area comprised at least 10% of the total body surface area. The animals were observed for 14 days. Under the conditions of this study the median lethal dose (LD50) of 4,4'-Diamino-3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl-dicyclohexylmethane after dermal application was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in male and female rats.
