- Other findings:
- No additional results
Any other information on results incl. tables
In the preliminary range finding study, the mortalities recorded indicated a dermal LD50 in the range of 500 - 1000 mg/kg. However, mortalities were apparent soon after dosing the initially selected low dose group (500 mg/kg) and the selected dose levels were revised, making the 500 mg/kg the high dose group.
No additional findings were noted in the main test group.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 3 based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the study, the dermal LD50 of DMCHA was determined to be 380 mg/kg (330 - 440 mg/kg 95% confidence limits). Based on these results, the test substance should be classified as a Category 3 acute dermal toxicant according to Regulation EC No. 1272/2008 and should have the signal word Danger and the hazard statement H301: Toxic if swallowed associated with it. In accordance with Directive 67/548/EEC, the test substance should be classified as Toxic (T) and have the risk phrase R24 Toxic in contact with skin associated with it.
- Executive summary:
In a study conducted by Jones and Collier (1986), the test substance, cyclohexyldimethylamine (DMCHA), was examined for its ability to cause acute dermal toxicity when applied to the backs and flanks of male and female Sprague-Dawley rats. A preliminary study was performed to determine the appropriate dose level to use, with 300, 360, 420 and 500 mg/kg being selected as the dose concentrations to use in the main study. The test substance was applied under an occlusive dressing and left in place for 24 hours. Following the 24 hour contact period, the dressing was removed and the test site and surrounding hair was washed with moist absorbent paper to remove any remaining test substance. Deaths were dose related with 2 deaths at 300 mg/kg, 5 deaths at 360 mg/kg, 6 deaths at 420 mg/kg and 8 deaths at 500 mg/kg. All deaths occurred within the first 24 hours and survivors all appeared normal after 3 days, with the exception of skin damage at the treatment site. Signs of toxicity included ataxia, tremors, tail arching and convulsions. At necropsy after 14 days, survivors showed no abnormalities of internal organs but all showed extensive skin damage. Under the conditions of the study, the dermal LD50 of DMCHA was determined to be 380 mg/kg (330 - 440 mg/kg 95% confidence limits). Based on these results, the test substance should be classified as a Category 3 acute dermal toxicant according to Regulation EC No. 1272/2008 and should have the signal word Danger and the hazard statement H311: Toxic in contact with skin
associated with it. In accordance with Directive 67/548/EEC, the test substance should be classified as Toxic (T) and have the risk phrase R24 Toxic in contact with skin associated with it.
