Key value for chemical safety assessment

Acute toxicity: via oral route

Link to relevant study records
Reference
Endpoint:
acute toxicity: oral
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
1981
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study
Justification for type of information:

acute toxicity: dermal
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
1981
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study
Justification for type of information:
The study was conducted in the early days of GLP and prior to guidelines. So there is a general lack of detail in the reports, but the work was conducted in a superior facility, so the quality is not in question.

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

There acute oral and dermal LD50 values were greater than the limit dose by a large margin. No classification was necessary.
