Effect levels
- Key result
- Sex:
- male/female
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Effect level:
- > 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Mortality:
- No deaths occurred
- Clinical signs:
- other: All animals were free from clinical signs of toxicity throughout the study All animal displayed increases in bodyweight during the stud y.
- Gross pathology:
- There were no gross abnormalities observed at postmortem.
- Other findings:
- Dermal irritation was noted for all animals during the
study and scored according to the Draize method of scoring.
The Day 1 dermal responses could not be evaluated due to staining of the dose site by the test substance.
Erythema: day 4 - 3 animals grade 4; 1 animal grade 3; 1 animal grade 2 and 4 animals grade 1
day 7 - 9 animals grade 4
day 11 - 8 animals grade 4
day 14 - 5 animals grade 4
Oedema: day 4 - 6 animals grade 2; 3 animals grade 1
day 7 - 2 animals grade 2; 6 animals grade 1
day 11 - 6 animals grade 1
day 14 - 3 animals grade 1
Desquamation was noted for eight animals during the study (5 males; 3 females) and eschar was noted for nine (4 males; 5 females). Skin cracking was noted in 2 females on day 4 only.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- In a GLP study conducted according to OECD guideline 402, the acute dermal LD50 of EC# 457-320-2 in the rat was >2000 mg/kg bw, the limit dose. The substantial irritation produced had not been completely resolved in all animals by day 14.
- Executive summary:
In a GLP study conducted according to OECD guideline 402, five male and five female rats were administered EC# 457-320-2 at 2000 mg/kg bw, the limit dose. The undiluted test material was applied to clipped skin, covering at least 10% of the body surface, under an occlusive dressing and removed after approximately 24 hours using peanut oil/paper towels. Animals were observed for up to 14 days post application. Clinical observations were made at frequent intervals during the day of application and on all subsequent days until post-mortem. Body weights were recorded pretest and on days 0, 7 and 14 and dermal observations made on days 1, 4, 7, 11 and 14.
All animals survived to day 14 and gained in body weight. No clinical signs of toxicity were seen in any animals. Dermal irritation was seen in all animals during the study, being first noted on Day 4 (not evaluated on Day 1 due to staining of the skin by the test material). By Day 14, the lesions had resolved in four of five males and one of five females. Irritation was scored according to the Draize method.
Erythema (grade 4) was seen in one male on Day 4, and in four, three and one male(s) on Days 7, 11 and 14 respectively. In females, grade 4 erythema was seen in two animals on Day 4 and in five, five and four animals on Days 7, 11 and 14 respectively. The highest oedema score seen, grade 2, was noted in two males on Day 4 only, whereas in females, four animals had a grade 2 lesion on Day 4 and two rats on Day 7. Other signs of local effects were eschar and desquamation, seen in animals at all time points and skin cracking, seen in two females only on Day 4.
In conclusion, the acute dermal LD50 for EC# 457-320-2 was >2000 mg/kg bw. According to EU CLP regulations, the test material would not be classified as acutely toxic by the dermal route. The local dermal toxicity had resolved completely in four males and one female by day 14, although severe erythema was still present in one male and four females at this time.
