The observations were included general clinical signs, observations of eyes, mucous membranes, respiratory, circulatory system and behavior pattern.

Evaluation of Dermal Reaction: Dermal reaction was observed daily for study period of 14 days.

Body weights: Individual animal body weights were recorded pre-test (prior to administration of the test item), day 7 and at termination on day 14.

Gross Pathology: Necropsy was performed on animals surviving at the end of the study. Macroscopic examination of all the orifices, cavities and tissues were made and the findings were recorded. All animals surviving the study period were sacrificed by the carbon dioxide asphyxiation technique (day 15).

Histopathology: No gross abnormalities were observed in animals sacrificed terminally hence, no histopathology was performed.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified
Conclusions:
The LD50 value was considered to be >2000 mg/kg bw, when male and female Sprague Dawley rats were occlusively treated with the given test chemical by dermal application following 14 days of observation period according to OECD Guideline 402 (Acute Dermal Toxicity).
Executive summary:

The reported study was designed and conducted to determine the acute dermal toxicity profile of the given test chemical as per OECD Guideline 402 (Acute Dermal Toxicity) in Sprague Dawley rats.

The test item was applied to shorn skin of 5 male and 5 female animals at 2000 mg/kg body weight. Administration of the test item at 2000 mg/kg did not result in any skin reaction at the site of application during the study period of 14 days.

Administration of the test item did not result in any signs of toxicity and mortality during the study period of 14 days. Animals exhibited normal body weight gain through the study period of 14 days. Gross pathological examination did not reveal any abnormalities attributable to the treatment.

Hence, it was  concluded  that  the  LD50 value was considered to be >2000 mg/kg bw, when male and female Sprague Dawley rats were occlusively treated with the given test chemical by dermal application following 14 days of observation period according to OECD Guideline 402 (Acute Dermal Toxicity).
