Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
BASF-Test. The study was performed according to: Noakes D.N. and Sanderson D.M., A Method for Determining the Dermal Toxicity of Pesticides. Brit. Journ. Ind. Med. 26, 59, 1969. 5 animals were treated for 4 or 24 h using occlusive conditions. An application site of 50 cm² was covered with the test substance and the trunk of the rat was encircled with a strip of plaster (2 layers). After the exposure time the skin was washed with detergent and water. The animals were observed 8 days and skin changes were recorded daily.
GLP compliance:

Conclusions:
The substance was tested for acute toxicity dermal in rats following Noakes D.N. and Sanderson D.M., A Method for Determining the Dermal Toxicity of Pesticides. Brit. Journ. Ind. Med. 26, 59, 1969. Under the experimental conditions the substance has LD50 > 1000 mg/kg bw /day (> 5000 mg/kg bw/day for the mixture preparation).
Executive summary:

The substance was tested for acute toxicity dermal in rats following Noakes D.N. and Sanderson D.M., A Method for Determining the Dermal Toxicity of Pesticides Brit. Journ. Ind. Med. 26, 59, 1969.One single dose of 5000 mg/kg bw /day was tested on 5 rats (male and female) by occlusive application. Under the experimental conditions the substance has LD50 > 1000 mg/kg bw /day (> 5000 mg/kg bw/day for the mixture preparation).
