- Sex:
- male/female
- Dose descriptor:
- LD0
- Effect level:
- 5 000 mg/kg bw
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Mortality:
- No mortality occurred
- Clinical signs:
- other: Systemic effects: None observed Local effects: All animals showed fissuration and/or desquamation and/or scabs on the treated skin. Recovery has occurred by the end of the 14-day post-dose observation period

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The lack of mortality demonstrates the LD50 to be greater than 5000mg/kg.
- Executive summary:
The acute toxicity of THPA (tetrahydrophthalic anhydride) has been investigated following dermal administration of a single dose to the rat at a level of 5000mg/kg.
No mortality occurred following dosing and no clinical signs were noted indicative of systemic toxicity. Local (irritant) effects were observed, recovery occurring within 14 days.
The lack of mortality demonstrates the LD50 to be greater than 5000mg/kg.
