Irritant / corrosive response data:
A 10% aqueous solution of dimethylamine borane produced slight erythema of rabbit skin.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
study cannot be used for classification
Conclusions:
A 10% aqueous solution of dimethylamine borane produced slight erythema of rabbit skin.
Executive summary:

In a review publication on the toxicity of boranes, the author cited another publication (Levinskas, 1958) stating that a 10% aqueous solution of dimethylamine-borane produced slight erythema in the rabbit skin. No information on the study design was given and thus based on the limited available information on the methodology this data cannot be used for classification.
