Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 5 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The LD50 value was considered to be 3040 mg/kg bw, when rabbits were treated with 1-Chloro-4-nitrobenzene by dermal application.
Executive summary:

Acute dermal toxicity study was done in rabbits using 1-Chloro-4-nitrobenzene. 50% mortality was observed at dose 3040mg/kg bw. Hence, the LD50 value was considered to be 3040 mg/kg bw, when rabbits were treated with 1-Chloro-4-nitrobenzene by dermal application.
