whole body
Vehicle:
other: unchanged (no vehicle)
Analytical verification of test atmosphere concentrations:
no
Duration of exposure:
8 h
Concentrations:
mean substance concentration: 0.2 mg/l air (calculated by the weight loss of the test substance over the time of exposure)
No. of animals per sex per dose:
3 males and 3 females
Control animals:
no
Details on study design:

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LC0
Effect level:
0.2 mg/L air
Exp. duration:
8 h
Remarks on result:
other: mean substance concentration: 0.2 mg/l air (calculated by the weight loss of the test substance over the time of exposure)
Mortality:
no death occurred (0/6)
Clinical signs:
other: no clinical signs reported
Gross pathology:
nothing abnormal detected

Any other information on results incl. tables

No LC50 value defined; Substance concentration in the vapour was determined by weighing the amount of substance in the substance column before and after the exposure period and calculating the mean concentration per liter air over the whole exposure period.
