Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The lethal dose (LD50) of Eicosanoic acid in New Zealand White rabbit was found to be 3575.76 mg/kg of body weight.Toxic effects was not observed. Thus by considering the CLP criteria for acute toxicity rating for the chemicals, it infers that Eicosanoic acid does not exhibit acute toxicity via the dermal route i.e it is acutely non toxic to animals within the dose level mentioned in the study.
Executive summary:

The acute toxicity study was conducted to evaluate the toxic effects of administration of Eicosanoic acid to New Zealand White rabbit by the dermal route. The lethal dose (LD50) of Eicosanoic acid in rabbit was found to be 3575.76 mg/kg of body weight.Toxic effects was not observed. Thus by considering the CLP criteria for acute toxicity rating for the chemicals, it infers that Eicosanoic acid does not exhibit acute toxicity via the dermal route i.e it is acutely non toxic to animals within the dose level mentioned in the study.
