Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
In the acute dermal toxicity study the discriminating dose was determined to be > 5000 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

In the non- GLP compliant but guideline similar acute dermal toxicity study New Zealand White rabbits were used. A dose of 5000 mg/kg bw was administrated 24 hours to the clipped abraded abdominal skin of ten rabbits.

Following exposure the binders were removed and observations made for mortality and toxic effects for a period of seven days.

No animals died during the course of the study. There was no evidence of toxicity from percutaneous absorption of the test substance. Signs of dermal irritation (erythema and edema) were observed until day 7.

No abnormalities were noted at necropsy.

All animals were essentially normal by the termination of the study. Therefore, the LD50 was determined to be > 5000 mg/kg bw.
