Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
An acute dermal toxicity study of Henna Rot was conducted in the Wistar Rat according to OECD Guideline 402 (1987). Median lethal dose for Henna Rot was > 2000 mg/kg bw.Lawsonia inermis showed no irritative potential for the skin after a single occlusive application for 24 hours, when tested for acute dermal toxicity under the experimental conditions.
