Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
Penetration of rabbit skin is estimated by a technique closely akin to the one-day, cuff Method of Draize and associates using groups of four male albino New Zealand rabbits weighing 2.5 to 3.5 kg. The fur is removed from the entire trunk by clipping, and the dose is retained beneath an impervious plastic film. Dosages greater than 20 ml/kg cannot be retained in contact with the skin. The animals are immobilized during the 24-hour contact period, after which the film is removed and the rabbits are caged for the subsequent 14-day observation period. Based upon mortalities during a 14-day observation period, the most probable LD50 value and its fiducial range are estimated by the method of Thompson using the Tables of Weil.
