Description of key information

Guidelined oral and dermal study in rats. Under the experimental conditions employed the LD50 was calculated to be 1564 mg/kg bw and 1436 mg/kg bw in male and female rats respectively. The substance 2-((4-methyl-2-nitrophenyl)amino)ethanol was classified as acute toxicity (oral) category 4.

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

LD50 (oral) is between 300 and 2000 mg/kg bw, Hydroxyethyl-2-nitro-p-toluidine is therefor to be classified according to (EG) Nr. 1272/2008 (CLP) as Acute Tox. 4 ( H302: Harmful if swallowed).

LD50 (dermal) is higher than 2000 mg/kg bw, Hydroxyethyl-2-nitro-p-toluidine is therefore not to be classified.
