- Conclusions:
- LD50 was considered to be 1832.6 mg/kg bw when rat were treated with Peracetic acid orally.
- Executive summary:
In a acute oral toxicity study, rat were treated with Peracetic acid in the concentration of 1832.6 mg/kg bw orally. 50 % mortality was observed at 1832.6 mg/kg. Therefore, LD50 was considered to be 1832.6 mg/kg bw when rat were treated with Peracetic acid orally.
