Executive summary:

Introduction: The study was performed to assess the acute dermal toxicity of the test item in the Wistar strain rat. The method was designed to be compatible with the following: OECD 402, B3 EC, EPA OPPTS 870.1200

Method: A group of ten animals (five males and 5 females) was given a single, 24 hour, semi-occluded dermal application of the test item to intact skin at a dose levelof 2000mg/kg bodyweight. Clinical signs and bidyweight development were monitored during the study. All animals were subjected to gross necropsy.

Mortality: there were no deaths

Clinical observations: no signs of systemic toxicity

Dermal irritation: Signs of dermal irritation noted were very slight erythema, haemmorrhage of dermal cappilaries, small superficail scattered scabs, hardened light brown coloured scabs, glossy skin and scab lifting to reveal glossy skin. There were no signs of dermal irritation noted at the test site of one male.

Bodyweight: Animals showed expected gains in bodyweight over the study period, except for one female which showed bodyweight loss during the first week but expected gain in bodyweight during the second week.

Necropsy: No abnormalities were noted

Conlusion: The acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of the test item in the Wistar strain rat was found to be greater than 2000mg/kg bw
