Executive summary:

The acute dermal toxicity of MTDID 7831 (off-white to white waxy solid, composition 93.96 w%, Batch 40177) was evaluated in Wistar rats. The study was performed in compliance with OECD GLP (1997). The study design was based on OECD No 402 (1987), EC 440/2008 B3 L142 (2008), EPA OPPTS 870.1200 (1998), and JMAFF No. 8147 (2011). The test article was prepared in polyethylene glycol (w/w) and dermally applied to a 5 x 7 cm area of clipped fur on male and female rats (5/sex) for a single application at a 2000 mg/kg body weight (10 mL/kg) dose. The application represented 10% total body surface of the rats and was applied with a gauze patch backing and covered in aluminum foil, an elastic bandage, and tape (females only). After 24 hours, the dressing was removed and the skin cleaned of any residual test substance with tap water. Observations were made for mortality (twice daily), body weights (Day 1, 8, and 15), and clinical signs of toxicity (Days 1-15). All animals were euthanized at the end of Day 15 and a necropsy was performed. All animals survived for the length of the study and no abnormalities were found at time of necropsy. Hunched posture (1 male), chromodarcryorrhoea (2 males and 3 females), and pilioerection (1 female) were noted only on Day 1. Body weights were within a historical expected range for the duration of the study. Based on the results of the study, the dermal LD50 of the test article is greater than 2000 mg/kg body weight.
