Administrative data

Endpoint:
acute toxicity: dermal
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
supporting study
Reliability:
4 (not assignable)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other:
Remarks:
Meets generally accepted scientific principles. But route of application (subcutaneous) is not in line with international guidelines and therefore not acceptable for the assessment of acute dermal toxicity. The present study may only be used as worst case assessment and support for the waiving argumentation.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Category 4 based on CLP/EU GHS criteria, according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008
Conclusions:
CLP: Acute Dermal 4, H312 (Annex VI harmonized classification)

The subcutaneous application of the test substance can be considered as worst case demonstrating the hazardous potential of hydroxylammonium chloride which is in line with the harmonized classification.
