Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Mortality:
no mortalities occured
Clinical signs:
other: ataxia in all animals, salivation and a nasal discharge in some. These signs were not noted any longer at the 24-hour observation period. Edema was noted only on day 1. Erythema and discoloration of the back were apparent from day 1 to day 14.
Gross pathology:
no systemic signs of toxicity except signs of toxicity of the integumentary system: Erythema and discoloration of the back

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
For Sodium Tolyltriazlate a well-conducted in vivo study is available showing no dermal toxicity up to the limit dose of 2000 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

For Sodium tolyltriazolate a well-conducted in vivo study is available showing no dermal toxicity up to the limit dose of 2000 mg/kg bw. This means that a similar result for Sodium Benzotriazolate can be anticipated.

 

Sodium Benzotriazolate is not an acute dermal toxicant and the derived LD50 is set at > 2000 mg/kg bw for this endpoint.

A DNEL for oral, dermal and/or inhalation route can be based on this information.

Classification and labelling are / are not needed for this endpoint.

A risk characterization will be performed because the substance is classified for oral toxicity.
