LD50
Effect level:

Based on:

Mortality:
Two out of five rabbits died at a dosage of 10 g/kg and one out of five succumbed at 5 g/kg.
Clinical signs:
other: Moderate to severe erythema and edema were present in all cases at the end of the exposure period. The edema was greatly reduced by the second day after dosing, and has subsided almost completely by the third day. Erythema persisted to a slight degree a d
Other findings:
Moderate to severe erythema and edema were present in all cases at the end of the exposure period. The edema was greatly reduced by the second day after dosing, and has subsided almost completely by the third day. Erythema persisted to a slight degree a day or two longer.
Apart from varying degrees of depression, most animals gave no evidence of systemic toxicity on the day following that of application of the dose. On the second day, however, one animal of the 10 g/kg group exhibited extreme depression and apparent loss of control of the hind legs which were fully extended anteriorly. Altough the animal could hold his head erect, it refused or was unable to attempt movement when placed on the floor. This condition is believed to have been the result of some incidental traumatic injury rather than a consequence of the dose. The animal died on the fourth day. There was another death in the 10 g/kg group, this on the sixth day, and a death at the 5 g/kg level on the sixth day. An LD50 of the product cannot be calculated from these results, although it is certainly greater than 2.5 g/kg. Survivors were observed for a total of seven days after that of the dose, and were then sacrificed. No significant pathology was find by gross autopsy.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Application of dosages of 2.5 g/kg to 10 g/kg as an aqueous paste to the clipped skin of rabbits for 24 hours led to moderate to severe erythema and edema which persisted for three to four days. Two out of five rabbits died at a dosage of 10 g/kg and one out of five succumbed at 5 g/kg.
LD50 > 2500 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

Three groups of male albino rabbits, 5 animals per group, received single applications of the test item on the closely-clipped skin of the abdomen at dosages of 2.5 g/kg, 5 g/kg and 10 g active ingredient/kg bw, respectively.

The dose was moistened with sufficient water to form a paste, and retained in contact with the skin for 24 hours by means of a cuff of polyethylene film which was encircled the trunk of the animal. At the end of the period of exposure, the cuff and any excess of the dose were removed, and the skin examined for primary irritation.

Moderate to severe erythema and edema were present in all cases at the end of the exposure period. The edema was greatly reduced by the second day after dosing, and has subsided almost completely by the third day. Erythema persisted to a slight degree a day or two longer.

Apart from varying degrees of depression, most animals gave no evidence of systemic toxicity on the day following that of application of the dose. On the second day, however, one animal of the 10 g/kg group exhibited extreme depression and apparent loss of control of the hind legs which were fully extended anteriorly. Although the animal could hold his head erect, he refused or was unable to attempt movement when placed on the floor. This condition is believed to have been the result of some incidental traumatic injury rather than a consequence of the dose. The animal died on the fourth day. There was another death in the 10 g/kg group, this on the sixth day, and a death at the 5 g/kg level on the sixth day. An LD50 of the product cannot be calculated from these results, although it is certainly greater than 2.5 g/kg. Survivors were observed for a total of seven days after that of the dose, and were than sacrificed. No significant pathology was find by gross autopsy.
