Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified
Conclusions:
Based on the present study results, single dermal application of the test item was associated with no mortality and neither signs of toxicity nor signs of irritation.
The acute dermal LD50 of the test item is more than 2000 mg/kg body weight in male and female Wistar rats.
Executive summary:

The acute dermal toxicity of the test item was tested in 5 male and 5 female Wistar rats at the limit dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight.

Based on the individual body weight, the finely ground test item at the dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight was weighed on an aluminium foil and made into a paste by adding sufficient volume of the Milli-Q water (approximately 0.4 mL) and completely transferred on to the cotton gauze (size: Males: 9 x 6 cm; Females: 8 x 5 cm of 6 ply) and applied                  (semi-occlusive) directly to the clipped skin of the rat to cover about 10% of body surface of the rat. Then the cotton gauze was secured in position by adhesive tape wound around the torso. The test item contact period with the skin was 24 hours.

After the 24 hour contact period, the adhesive tape and cotton gauze were removed and the application area was washed with water and wiped dry using a clean towel. 

All the rats were observed for clinical signs of toxicity and mortality for
14 days post application. There were no clinical signs of toxicity and mortality. However, blue colour stain was observed at the test item application area in all rats on day 2 and 3 post dose observation. All rats gained weight during experimental period. At the end of observation period, all surviving animals were euthanized and subjected to necropsy. There were no abnormalities detected at necropsy
.

Based on the present study results, single dermal application of the test item was associated with no mortality and neither signs of toxicity nor signs of irritation.

The acute dermal LD50of the test item is more than 2000 mg/kg body weight in male and female Wistar rats.
