Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified
Conclusions:
The LD50 value was found to be >2000 mg/kg in rats exposed to chemical 2,5-Dichloronitrobenzene in acute dermal test.
Executive summary:

Acute dermal toxiciyt test was performed to evaluate lethality of chemical 2,5-Dichloronitrobenzene.The animals were exposed by dermal route with dose concentration of 2000 mg/kg.

The animal only showed only a decrease of their spontaneous activity.2000 mg/kg did not lead to any deaths for rats.

The LD50 value was found to be >2000 mg/kg in rats exposed to chemical 2,5-Dichloronitrobenzene in acute dermal test.
