EC number: 203-812-5 | CAS number: 110-88-3
Acute Toxicity: oral
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- acute toxicity: oral
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- supporting study
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: Original publication in Czech; only few data could be extracted from an English abstract and from tables; However, peer reviewed data used as supporting data for HPV submission (US EPA); Scientifically acceptable.
