Any other information on results incl. tables
- Dose of 75 mg/m3 : Slight but significant decrease in body weight in male and female mice + in male rats
- All doses: No effects in haematology, clinical chemistry and urinalysis parameters. Local irritative effects on the nose was observed in rats and mice
In rats, concentrationand time-dependent minimal to slight rhinitis in the anterior nasal cavity were observed after 5 and 90 days. In mice, dose-dependently increasing lesions on skin and mucosa, particularly around the mouth and nose, were observed after 90 days at or above 30 mg/m3. In mice, histology revealed ulcerative dermatitis, necrotic cells in the subcutis and increased phagocytised blood pigments in macrophages and intracytoplasmatically in sub-epithelial cells.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The systemic NOAEL was found to be 30 mg/m3. The LOAEL for irritation was 15 mg/m3
