Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not Classified
Conclusions:
LD50 was considered to >3200 mg/kg bw when rats were treated with 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, monopotassium salt orally.
Executive summary:

In a acute oral toxicity study, rats were treated with1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, monopotassium salt in the concentration of 3200 mg/kg bw. No mortality was observed in treated rats at 3200 mg/kg bw.Therefore,LD50 was considered to >3200 mg/kg bw when rats were treated with1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, monopotassium salt orally.
