Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Mortality:
no
Clinical signs:
other: One day after the application coordination was impacted during a period of one day. Skin from almost all animals was affected: desquamation, small wounds, and skin irritation
Body weight:
other body weight observations
Remarks:
reduced female body weight gain due to reduced food consumption

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: EU GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
In a GLP-study according to OECD Test Guideline 402 conducted as a limit test, the acute dermal LD50 of the registered substance was determined to be > 2000 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

The results of a limit test according to OECD Test Guideline 402 indicate that a single dermal application of CARDOLITE NC-513 at 2000 mg/kg on female and male rats did not result in major behavior changes. One day after the application coordination was impacted during a period of one day but no other clinical signs were detected during the study. Some reversible effects on skin such as desquamation, small wounds, and skin irritation were observed. Kidney abnormalities (such as hemorrhagic stain) for male and female were recorded during the macroscopic examination after necropsy. CARDOLITE NC-513 had an influence on food consumption and on weight gain for

female In conclusion dermal application at dose level of 2000 mg per kg body weight of the test item, CARDOLITE NC-513, may influence the food consumption and may have an impact on the appetite for female.

In conclusion the LD50 of the test item CARDOLITE NC-513 is higher than 2000 mg/kg body weight by dermal route in the rat.
