Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The dermal LD50 of γ-Nonalactone is higher than 5000 mg/kg bw in rabbits therefore it is not classified according to the Directive 67/548/EEC and the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP).
Executive summary:

In an acute dermal toxicity (limit test) study, a group of 4 rabbits were administered a single dermal dose of γ-Nonalactone at 5000 mg/kg bw. Animals were then observed for 14 days.

During the observation period, one animal died on Day 1. Erythema lasted for 24 h.

Dermal LD50 > 5000 mg/kg bw.

The dermal LD50 of γ-Nonalactone is higher than 5000 mg/kg bw in rabbits therefore it is not classified according to the Directive 67/548/EEC and the Regulation (EC) No. 1272 /2008 (CLP).
