Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
study cannot be used for classification
Conclusions:
Besides, the s aturated vapour pressure concentration (0.722 mg/L) (converted to a 4-hour equivalent: 0.955 mg/L) exposure to rats for 7 hours resulted in no deaths, but the category could not be determined only from this data
