Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The acute intraperitoneal LD50 of N,N-Bis(2-Hydroxyethyl)-p-Phenylenediamine Sulfate (A050) was determined to be >16 and <31 mg/kg bw when administered at dose levels of 16, 31, 62, 125, 250 and 500 mg/kg bw in male rats.
Executive summary:

The objective of this study was to determine the acute intraperitoneal toxicity of N,N-Bis(2 -Hydroxyethyl)-p-Phenylenediamine Sulfate (A050) when administered once intraperitoneally to male rats. 

A total of 30 male rats weighing 250-300 g were divided into six different treatment groups containing 5 rats each. The test substance was prepared in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO; 10%) and administered intraperitoneally at dose levels of 16, 31, 62, 125, 250 and 500 mg/kg bw.

During the study period animals were observed for mortality.

1/5, 4/5, 5/5, 4/5, 4/5 and 5/5 animals at dose levels of 16, 31, 62, 125, 250 and 500 mg/kg bw were found dead during the study, respectively.

Based on above, the acute intraperitoneal LD50 of N,N-Bis(2-Hydroxyethyl)-p-Phenylenediamine Sulfate (A050) was determined to be >16 and <31 mg/kg bw when administered once at dose levels of 16, 31, 62, 125, 250 and 500 mg/kg bw in male rats.
