Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The dermal LD50 in rats (male/female) of C16-18FA-TEPA-compound was > 2000 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

In an acute dermal toxicity study according to OECD guideline 402 (24 February 1987) and EU method B.3 (31 July 1992), groups of young adult HanBrl: WIST rats (5/sex) were dermally exposed to C16 -18FA-TEPA-compound in purified water for 24 hours to approx. 10% body surface area at a limit dose of 2000 mg/kg bw. Animals then were observed for 14 days. The test substance was applied as solution of 0.33 g/mL.


No deaths occurred during the study. The only clinical signs noted were slight general erythema in five males and four females on day 2 which persisted up to day 3, 5, 7 and 8 in the male and up to day 4, 5 and 8 in the female animals and slight swelling on day 2 in one female. The body weight was within the range commonly recorded for this strain and age. No macroscopic abnormalities were observed at necropsy.
