Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: EU GHS EC 1272/2008
Conclusions:
Under the experimental conditions the dermal LD50 of N,N-Dimethyldecan-1-amide in rats was found to be above 5000mg/kg b.wt.
Executive summary:

The acute dermal toxicity of N,N-Dimethyldecan-1-amide in rats was determined according to the method recommended in the OECD Guideline No. 402 "Acute Dermal Toxicity", Feb. 1987, and the corresponding EEC GuidelineB.3 "Acute Toxicity (Dermal)", 29.12.92.

The study was performed as a limit test with 10 Wistar rats (five males and five females). The rats were exposed to a single dermal dose of 5000 mg/kg b.wt. for 24 hours followed by an observation period of 14 days. During the study clinical signs of reaction to the treatment were recorded daily. Body weight was recorded once a week. After the two week observation period the animals were killed and subjected to a gross necropsy examination.

All animals in the main study survived the treatment and showed very slight signs of toxicity.

Under the experimental conditions described in this report, the dermal LD50 of SAT 970 419 in rats was found to be above 5000 mg/kg b.wt.
