No. of animals per sex per dose:
5
Control animals:
no
Details on study design:

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Mortality:
No mortality occurred.
Clinical signs:
Hunched or flat posture and/or chromodacryorrhoea (snout) were noted among the animals. The animals had recovered from the symptoms between Days 2 and 3. Maculate erythema, scales and/or scabs were seen in the treated skin-area of the animals during the observation period.
In one female, a wound in the treated skin-area was seen on Day 2. This was caused by the difficult removal of sticky remnants of the test substance from the treated skin.

Body weight:
The changes noted in body weight gain in males and females were within the range expected for rats used in this type of study and were therefore considered not indicative of toxicity.
Gross pathology:
No abnormalities were found at macroscopic post mortem examination of the animals.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Based on the results of this study, the test substance does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for dermal toxicity.
