Administration / exposure

Type of coverage:
occlusive
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Details on dermal exposure:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: 5x5 cm
- % coverage: 100%
- Type of wrap if used: The treated area was covered with gauze which was held in place with an impermeable dressing encircled firmly around the trunk.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): with warm water (40-40°C) and blotted dry with absorbent paper
- Time after start of exposure: 24 h

TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 2000 mg/kg bw (as 80% (w/v) paste in distilled water
- For solids, paste formed: yes

VEHICLE
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 2.5 mL/kg bw
Duration of exposure:
24 h
Doses:
2000 mg/kg bw
No. of animals per sex per dose:
10
Control animals:
yes, concurrent vehicle
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing:
Animals were observed soon after dosing; then at frequent intervals for the remainder of day1. On subsequent days the animals were observed at least once in the morning and once at the end of the experimental day. Individual body weights of rats were mearsured on days 1, 4, 8, and 15.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes
- Other examinations performed: clinical signs, body weight
other: Treated areas of skin were examined daily for signs of dermal irritation and assessed.
Statistics:
none

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
study cannot be used for classification
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the present study, single dermal application of the test item to rats at a dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight was associated with no mortality and neither signs of toxicity nor signs of irritation.The dermal LD50 was determined to be > 2000 mg / kg body weight.
Executive summary:

Under the conditions of the present study, single dermal application of the test item to rats at a dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight was associated with no mortality and neither signs of toxicity nor signs of irritation.The dermal LD50 was determined to be > 2000 mg / kg body weight.
