Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- There were no deaths when four rabbits (2/sex) were given a 24-hour skin application of undiluted Santicizer 160 at up to 10.0 g/kg bw and then observed for 2 weeks. Although details of the study are only available in a brief summary report (hence it has been assigned reliability code 4), the data are considered adequate for assessment.
- Executive summary:
Undiluted Santicizer 160 was applied to the skin of four New Zealand white rabbits. One male was dosed at each of 3.98 and 10.0 g/kg bw, and one female dosed at each of 6.31 and 10.0 g/kg bw, for an exposure period of 24 hours (no further details given on exposure conditions). The animals were assessed for toxic symptoms during the observation period, and the animals were sacrificed 14 days after dosing and examined macroscopically.
All four animals survived the 14-day observation period. Reductions in appetite and activity were seen for 2 -4 days (no details provided on the doses at which these effects were seen). At necropsy, the viscera appeared normal. The investigators concluded that the LD50 was greater than 10.0 g/kg bw. Under the EU CLP regulations, this study would indicate that Santicizer 160 should not be classified for acute dermal toxicity.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
