LD50
Effect level:
> 1 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Remarks on result:
other: no mortality observed
Mortality:
No mortality observed
Clinical signs:
other: 7/10: some signs of irritation at the application site starting on day 4, with all irritation resolved by day 14. No necrosis observed

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 4 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Based on the results of the acute dermal toxicity study in rats with the test substance, the estimated LD50 was considered to be greater than 1000 mg/kg bw. Therefore, the substance is considered to be classified as category 4 according to CLP regulation.
