Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 3 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Mean value LD50 = 1015 mg/kg bw (used for classification)
Risk of cutaneous absorption. Risk of methaemoglobin formation even after skin contact (leads to increased classification).
Symptoms may be delayed.
Executive summary:

As mention in chapter toxicikinetics read across to p-isopropyl aniline is appropriate and justified by ECB 2000 (peer reviewed data collection). p-Isopropyl aniline was applied to the skin of male and female rats as described by OECD TG 402 under GLP conditions to determine acute dermal toxicity.

The LD50 for males is 1000 mg/kg bw and for females 1030 mg/kg bw (Hoechst AG 1988)
