Administrative data

Endpoint:
acute toxicity: dermal
Type of information:
migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
GLP guideline study, tested with the source substance CAS 16470-24-9. According to the ECHA guidance document “Practical guide 6: How to report read-across and categories (Dec 2012)”, the reliability was changed from RL1 to RL2 to reflect the fact that this study was conducted on a read-across substance.

Executive summary:

Method

Upon an acute oral single administration (2000 mg/kg bw) and a 15 day post-treatment observation period, the dermal LD50 was determined for the test substance, according to the OECD Guideline 402.

Results

LD50 > 2000 mg/kg bw

No deaths accorred and no systemic signs were observed in the animals during the entire observation period. Skin reactions are all recovered after 7 observation days.
