Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
practically nontoxic
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
ATBC did not induce toxic signs when applied to 3 rabbits over 4 consecutive days.
Executive summary:

In a skin irritation study, which likewise could be used as acute dermal toxicity study (ATBC was applied to rabbits over 4 days at a dosage of 1 mL/kg bw/d; ca. 1000 mg/kg), no signs of toxicity were noted. Therefore it can be concluded that ATBC is not toxic after dermal administration to rabbits at a daily dermal dose of ca. 1000 mg/kg.
