Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
study cannot be used for classification
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the female wistar strain rat was estimated to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bodyweight. Therefore the material is unclassified according to the Globally Harmonised System.
