Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
In rats, the acute dermal LD50 value (24-hour semi-occlusive application) for tetrammine platinum (II) hydrogen carbonate was >2000 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

An acute dermal toxicity test was conducted in the Sprague-Dawley CD strain rat, in accordance with OECD Test Guideline 402 and to GLP. Ten rats (five males and five females) were given a single 24-hour, semi-occluded dermal application of tetraammineplatinum hydrogen carbonate to intact skin at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. The animals were observed for 14 days after the day of treatment and were then killed for gross pathological examination.

 

There were no deaths, and no signs of systemic toxicity or skin irritation during the study. All rats showed the expected increase in body weight during the study except for one female which showed body weight loss during the first week only. No abnormalities were noted at necropsy.

 

The acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the Sprague-Dawley CD strain rat was >2000 mg/kg bw.

Based on the results of this study, tetraammineplatinum hydrogen carbonate does not require classification for acute dermal toxicity according to EU CLP criteria (EC 1272/2008).
