Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified according CLP Regulation (EC no. 1272/2008)
Conclusions:
LC0 (inhalation, rat, 1h) = 22.53 mg/L
Executive summary:

The acute inhalation toxicity of the test item was evaluated in an experimental study performed in an equivalent manner to the OECD Guideline 433, Acute Inhalation Toxicity Fixed Concentration Procedure. 10 rats were exposed to the test item via a whole body air chamber with an air flow of 6.84L/minute for approximately one hour, in a limit test with a nominal concentration equivalent to 22.53 mg/L.

No mortality occurred during the study period. Mild erythema on ears, inactivity, salivation, nasal discharge during exposure was observed. The LC50 is therefore greater than 22.53 mg/L (nominal), and the LC0 is equal to 22.53 mg/L (nominal).
