Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- In an acute dermal toxicity study according to OECD TG 402, Sprague-Dawley rats (5/sex/dose) were dermally exposed to 2000 mg/kg bw 3,3'-Thiobispropanoic acid in water for 24 h under semiocclusive conditions. Animals were then observed for 14 d.
No mortality occurred during the study. No signs of systemic toxicity were observed. All animals showed the expected gains in bodyweight over the study period.
The dermal LD50 was >2000 mg/kg bw.
