Diss Factsheets

Administrative data

Endpoint:
acute toxicity: dermal
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
From November 13 to 27, 1978
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
Although conducted under worst-case conditions (abraded skin, occlusive dressing), no mortality was observed during this study. A repeat study is unlikely to show worse effects; therefore, this study was considered sufficiently robust to cover this endpoint.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Dermal LD50 Combined > 2000 mg/kg bw
Executive summary:

In an acute dermal toxicity study (limit test) performed similarly to the OECD guideline No. 402, the abraded skin of albino rabbits (3/sex) was occlusively exposed to undiluted test material for 24 h at dose of 2000 mg/kg bw. Animals were observed for mortality, clinical signs and body weight changes daily for 14 days and then necropsied for macroscopic observations.

No mortality or clinical signs were observed. No abnormalities were noted at necropsy.

Dermal LD50 Combined > 2000 mg/kg bw

Under the test conditions, the test material is not classified according to the annex VI of the Regulation EC No. 1272/2008 (CLP).

This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for acute dermal toxicity endpoint.
