Interpretation of results:
Toxicity Category III
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
LD50 was considered to be 318.48 mg/k bw when rabbits were treated with Hexylamine by dermal application.
Executive summary:

In a acute dermal toxicity study, rabbits were treated with Hexylamine by dermal application. 50 % mortality observed in treated rabbits at 318.48 mg/k bw . Therefore, LD50 was considered to be 318.48 mg/k bw when rabbits were treated with Hexylamine by dermal application.
