- JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING
According to OECD Series on Testing and Assessment No 237, reviews comparing the classification of oral and dermal hazards indicate that it is rare for the dermal test to yield a more severe classification. under this premise, substance would be classified in the corresponding GHS category as the oral hazard, if the LD50 oral is less than 300 mg/kg bw.
However, for substances where the oral LD50 range is between 300 and 2000 mg/kg and dermal penetration data indicates low dermal absorption (<10%) relative to oral absorption, the LD50 would equate to a dermal-equivalent value of 3000 mg/kg bw. However, this approach, which is assuming a high oral bioavailability, must be reconsidered if available information indicates low oral bioavailability of the substance.
Although the LD50 of the substance by oral route is between 300 and 2000 mg/kg, the toxicokinetic of the substance is not compliant with the above assumptions. Therefore, as a reasonable worst case scenario, and taking into account animal welfare consideration, the substance will be classified for dermal toxicity in the corresponding GHS category as the oral hazard, i.e. category 4, in the same way as the oral hazard was less than 300 mg/kg.
This is supported by the fact that in a sensitization test performed on the very closed analogue, no systemic toxicity was observed throughout the study on mice.

Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no study available
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Value:
- 1 000 mg/kg bw
- Quality of whole database:
- Moderate quality of the whole database
Additional information
No dermal acute toxicity test is available. According to OECD series on Testing & Assessment No. 237, a waiving has been drawned based on the oral toxicity test already available on the substance. As a worst case scenario, the substance is classified for dermal toxicity in the corresponding GHS category as the oral hazard, i.e. category 4, in the same way as the oral hazard was less than 300 mg/kg, corresponding to a LC50 between 1000 and 2000 mg/kg. For the CAS, a LD 50 of 1001 mg/kg bw was therefore used.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the available data, the substance is classified acute toxicity oral and dermal category 4.
