Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The 1h acute inhalation toxicity, lethal concentration (LC50) value of methylacetoacetate (vapours) in rat was estimated to be > 26.4 mg/L . This value indicates that methylacetoacetate does not exhibit acute toxicity by the inhalation route.
Executive summary:

The 1h acute inhalation toxicity, lethal concentration (LC50) value of methylacetoacetate (vapours) in rat was estimated to be > 26.4 mg/L . This value indicates that methylacetoacetate does not exhibit acute toxicity by the inhalation route.
