Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Mortality:
No mortality occurred.
Clinical signs:
other: No systemic clinical signs were observed during clinical examination. Skin effects at the application site comprised erythema (grade 1 or 2), edema (grade 1), scaling and incrustations and were observed on study day 1 until study day 9 after application.
Gross pathology:
No macroscopic pathologic abnormalities were noted in the animals (5 males and 5
females) examined on the last day of observation.
Other findings:
none

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this study the median lethal dose (LD50) of ASA after dermal application was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in male and female rats.
