Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ORGANISMS: Sprague-Dawley CD (BK:SD)
- Source: Bantin & Kingman, Hull, UK.
- Age: 8 - 12 weeks
- Weight at study initiation: at least 200g

Administration / exposure

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Details on dermal exposure:
ADMINISTRATION:
- Area covered: approx. 10% of the total body surface area
- Occlusion: semi-occlusive
- Vehicle: none, undiluted
- Doses: 2000 mg/kg bw
- Removal of test substance: after the 24-hour contact period, treated skin and surrounding hair wiped with distilled water
Duration of exposure:
EXAMINATIONS:
- Mortality and Clinical signs: ½, 1, 2 and 4 hours after dosing and subsequently once daily for fourteen days
Skin irritation: once daily
Doses:
2000 mg/kg bw
No. of animals per sex per dose:
5 males + 5 females
Details on study design:
EXAMINATIONS:
- Mortality and Clinical signs: ½, 1, 2 and 4 hours after dosing and subsequently once daily for fourteen days
- Skin irritation: once daily
- Individual bodyweights: prior to dosing and seven and fourteen days after treatment
- Gross pathological examination: external examination and opening of the abdominal and thoracic cavities for examination of major organs. The appearance of any macroscopic abnormalities was recorded. No tissues were retained.

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Mortality:
None
Clinical signs:
other: No signs of systemic toxicity.
Gross pathology:
No abnormalities were noted at necropsy.
Other findings:
SKIN IRRITATION: Well-defined erythema was noted at the treatment sites of all females one day after dosing. Very slight to well-defined erythema was noted at the treatment sites of four female animals two and three days after dosing with very slight erythema persisting at the treatment site of one female four days after dosing. Crust formation was noted at the treatment sites of two females two to five days after dosing and a hardened light brown-coloured scab was noted at the treatment site of one female three to fourteen days after dosing.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the Sprague-Dawley CD strain rat was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bodyweight.
