Description of key information

The acute oral toxicity was tested in rats at dose levels of 5000 mg/kg bw. No deaths or signs of toxicity was observed in these studies.

The structural analogue was tested in a dermal acute toxicity study at a limit dose of 2000 mg/kg bw in male and female rats. No deaths or signs of toxicity was observed in this study.

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

No deaths or systemic adverse effects were observed in the acute toxicity studies with either route of administration. hence, no classification is necessary
