Executive summary:

The potential toxic effects of DBM was assessed according to the OECD guideline 402 for acute dermal toxicity in Sprague-Dawley (Him:OFA) rats. Observations included medium grade erythema in all males and in three females and chromodacryorrhoea in four males and five females within six hour p.a.. All animals survided the test. During macoscopic examination at necropsy, no lesions were observed.
