Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified
Conclusions:
Acute dermal toxicity dose (LD50) value was considered to be >2000 mg/kg bw, when 10 male and five female New Zealand White rabbits were treated with the given test chemical by dermal route.
Executive summary:

Acute dermal toxicity study was conducted as per OECD 402 by using the test chemical in 10 male and five female New Zealand White rabbits at the test concentration of 2000 mg/kg bw by dermal route. Animals were observed for mortality. No mortality was observed at 2000 mg/kg bw.Hence, the LD50 value was considered to be >2000 mg/kg bw, when 10 male and five female New Zealand White rabbits were treated with the test chemical by dermal route.
