Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The acute dermal median lethal concentration (LC50) of 2-amino-4-nitrophenol in rabbit was found to be >5000 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:
</font>

The acute dermal median lethal concentration (LC50) of 2-amino-4-nitrophenol in rabbit was found to be >5000 mg/kg bw. Acute toxicity of 2-amino-4-nitrophenol to rabbit by the dermal route indicates that 2-amino-4-nitrophenol does not exhibits acute toxicity by the dermal route as per the CLP criteria.
