TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Harlan Olac Ltd., Bicester, Oxon, England
- Weight at study initiation: 214 to 238 g
- Housing: Individually in metal cages with wire mesh floors
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): Ad libitum (SDS LAD 1)
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): Ad libitum
- Acclimation period: 5 days

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 22 ± 3°C
- Humidity (%): 30 - 70% RH
- Air changes (per hr): 10 to 15 air changes per hour
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12 hours of artificial light (0700 - 1900 hours) in each 24-hour period

Administration / exposure

Type of coverage:

occlusive

Vehicle:

unchanged (no vehicle)

Details on dermal exposure:

TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: dorso-lumbar region (one day prior to treatment, hair was clipped), 10% of the total body surface. The test substance was applied by spreading it evenly over the prepared skin.
- % coverage, type of wrap: The treated area (approximately 50 mm x 50 mm) was then promptly covered with gauze which was held in place with a non-irritative dressing encircled firmly around the trunk.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): warm (30- 40°C) water and blotted dry with absorbent paper
- Time after start of exposure: 24 h

TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 2.1 mL/kg bw (2000 mg/kg bw)

Duration of exposure:

24 hours

Doses:

1

No. of animals per sex per dose:

5 rats per sex and dose

Control animals:

no

Details on study design:

- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: mortality and clinical signs: twice daily; body weight: Days 1, 8 and 15.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: Yes. All animals were killed on Day 15 by carbon dioxide asphyxiation and were subjected to a macroscopic examination which consisted of opening the abdominal and thoracic cavities. The macroscopic appearance of all examined tissues was recorded.
- Other examinations performed: clinical signs, body weight, macroscopic examination, other: Local dermal irritation at the treatment site was assessed daily and scored (Draize scoring method)

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

other: Not classified based on CLP criteria.

Conclusions:

The dermal LD50 of OS2200 was determined to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw.

Executive summary:

An acute dermal toxicity study was performed on the test substance OS2200 according to EU Method B.3. A group of ten rats (five males and five females) was given a single dermal application of the test substance, as supplied, at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. All animals were killed and examined macroscopically on Day 15, the end of the observation period. There were no deaths and no signs of systemic reaction to treatment. Sites of application showed no irritation or other dermal changes. In comparison with historical data from the Department of Industrial Toxicology of HRC, slightly low bodyweight gains were recorded for one male and three females on Day 8. All other rats achieved satisfactory bodyweight gains throughout the study. No abnormalities were recorded at the macroscopic examination on Day 15. The LD50 of OS220 was therefore > 2000 mg/kg bw.
