Male: 2000 mg/kg bw; Number of animals: 5; Number of deaths: 0
Female: 2000 mg/kg bw; Number of animals: 5; Number of deaths: 0
Clinical signs:
other:
Body weight:
other body weight observations
Remarks:
The animals showed expected body weight gain during the study
Gross pathology:
No abnormalities were found at macroscopic post mortem examination
Other findings:
Signs of toxicity (local):
Erythema, scales and scabs in the treated skin-area and red staining in the neck were seen among several animals during the observation period.
The animals had recovered from the symptoms between days 5 and 8, except for red staining in the neck of one female which persisted until termination of the study.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The dermal LD50 in rats was determined to be higher than 2000 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

The study was conducted according to EU Method B.3 (GLP study). Wistar Crl:(WI) BR male and female rats were treated with the substance at 2000 mg/kg bw (limit test). Due to the absence of mortality, relevant clinical signs and abnormalities in the organs, the dermal LD50 was determined to be higher than 2000 mg/kg bw.
