The areas of application were clipped free of hair on the day prior to dosing and as needed to facilitate accurate dermal observations.

- Other examinations performed: clinical signs, body weight,organ weights. Tissues were not collected. Observations included, but were not limited to, evaluation for changes in appearance of skin and fur, eyes, mucous membranes, respiratory and circulatory systems, autonomic effects, and central nervous system effects

Erythema subsided by study day 6, and desquamation subsided by study day 11. In addition, female nos. 5126 and 5129 had scabbing within the dose site on study day 2 and 3, respectively. There was no edema observed at any dose site.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
limit dose 2000 mg/kg
Conclusions:
Based on the results of this study, the LD50 of the test item was greater than 2000 mg/kg (CLP category Unclassified) when administered once for 24 hours to the clipped, unabraded skin of male and female albino rats.
Executive summary:

The acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of the test item was conducted according the EPA OPPTS Guideline 870.1200 and the OECD Guideline Section 402, in compliance with GLP.

The test item was administered once dermally for a 24-hour period under gauze dressing semiocclusive to the skin of Crl:CD(SD) albino rats to perform the limit test. The test substance was administered to one group of five male and five female rats at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg. Mortality, clinical observations, dermal findings (Draize, 1965), and body weight changes were evaluated over a 14-day observation period. All animals were subjected to a gross necropsy.

There were no deaths, clinical observations, remarkable body weight changes, or test substance-related gross necropsy findings. Dermal findings noted during the study consisted of very slight (grade 1) to slight (grade 2) erythema and desquamation for all five males and five females and scabbing within the dose site for two females.

Based on the results of this study, the LD50 of the test item was greater than 2000 mg/kg (CLP category Unclassified) when administered once for 24 hours to the clipped, unabraded skin of male and female albino rats.
