REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): the dressings were carefully removed and the treated area of skin decontaminated by washing in warm (30°-40°C) water and blotting dry with
absorbent paper.
- Time after start of exposure: after 24 hours
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit):2.25 ml/kg.
- Concentration (if solution): Unifoam AZ SO-NL was prepared as a 88.9% w/v paste in distilled water and administered at a volume of 2.25 ml/kg.
- Constant volume or concentration used: yes
- For solids, paste formed: yes - Duration of exposure:
- 24 hours
- Doses:
- 2 g/kg
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 5 male, 5 female
- Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- - Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: Animals were observed soon after dosing and at frequent intervals for the remainder of Day 1 (a period of five hours). On subsequent days the animals were observed once in the morning and again at the end of the experimental day. This latter observation was at approximately 16.30 hours on weekdays and 11.30 hours on Saturday and Sunday. Clinical signs were recorded at each observation. The treated areas of skin were examined daily for signs of dermal irritation and assessed according to an arbitrary scoring system.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes
- Other examinations performed: All animals on the study were killed on Day 15 by cervical dislocation and were subjected to a macroscopic post mortem examination, which consisted of opening the abdominal and thoracic cavities. The macroscopic appearance of abnormal organs when present was recorded.
Results and discussion
Effect levels
- Sex:
- male/female
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Effect level:
- > 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Mortality:
- There were no deaths following a single dermal dose of Unifoam AZ SO-NL at 2.0 g/kg bodyweight.
- Clinical signs:
- other: There were no signs of systemic reaction to treatment.
- Gross pathology:
- Terminal autopsy findings were normal.
- Other findings:
- Sites of application of the test substance showed no irritation reactions or other dermal changes.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The acute lethal dermal dose to rats of Unifoam AZ SO-NL was found to be: greater than 2.0 g/kg bodyweight.
- Executive summary:
An acute dermal toxicity study was conducted to assess the toxicity of the test substance AZ SO-NL by dermal exposure (HLS 1988, 88726D/OCI 65/AC). The study was conducted in accordance with EC and OECD test guidelines, and in compliance with GLP.
Ten rats (five males and five females) were exposed to the test substance by dermal exposure at 2.0 g/kg bodyweight for a period of 24 hours. At the end of the exposure period, the test substance was washed off, and the test animals were observed for mortality, clinical signs and signs of dermal irritation for a period of 14 days after exposure. At the end of the observation period, all test animals were sacrificed and post mortem examinations were performed.
No deaths occurred in the test animals during the exposure or observation periods. No clinical signs or dermal responses were observed, and terminal autopsy results were normal. Slightly low bodyweight gains were seen in two male and two female rats at the end of the observation period.
The acute lethal dermal dose to rats of Unifoam AZ SO-NL was found to be greater than 2.0 g/kg bodyweight.
