Batch number: 002013
Purity: 92.9 %
Stability of test item: stable under storage conditions
Expiry date: 31-03-2003
Test animals
- Species:
- rat
- Strain:
- Wistar
- Remarks:
- HanBrl:WIST (SPF)
- Sex:
- male/female
- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- Test system: Rat, HanBrl: Wist (SPF)
Rationale: Recognized by the international guidelines as a recommended test system
Source: RCC Ltd., Füllinsdorf / Switzerland
Number of animals: 5 m / 5 f per group
Age when treated: 9 - 12 weeks
Acclimatization: Under laboratory conditions, after health examination. Only animals without any visible signs of illness were used for the study.
Husbandry
Standard Laboratory Conditions. Air-conditioned with 10-15 air changes per hour, and continuously monitored environment with target ranges for temperature 22 +/- 3°C and for relative humidity between 30-70 %. 12 hours fluorescent light/12 hours dark, music during the light period.
Accommodation: Makrolon type-4 or type-3 cages
Diet: Pelleted standard Provimi Kliba 3433 rat/mouse maintenance diet ad libitum.
Water: Community tap-water, from Itingen ad libitum.
Administration / exposure
- Type of coverage:
- semiocclusive
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Details on dermal exposure:
- One day before treatment, the backs of the animals were clipped with an electric clipper, exposing an area of approximately 10 % of the total body surface. Only those animals without injury or irritation on the skin were used in the test.
On test day 1, the test item was applied at a dose of 1840 mg/kg body weight or 2000 mg/kg evenly on the intact skin with a syringe and covered with a semi-occlusive dressing. The dressing was wrapped around the abdomen and fixed with an elastic adhesive bandage.
Application volume/kg body weight: 2 or 2.2 mL/kg
Twenty-four hours after the application the dressing was removed and the skin was flushed with lukewarm tap water and dried with disposable paper towels. Thereafter, the reaction sites were assessed. - Duration of exposure:
- 24 h
- Doses:
- 1840 or 2000 mg/kg bw
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 5 m / 5 f
- Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- Mortality: Daily during acclimatization and twice daily during days 1-15
Body weight: On test days 1 (pre-administration), 8 and 15
Clinical signs: Daily during acclimatization and at least four times on test day 1 after the test item administration. Once daily during days 2-15
Necropsy: All animals at the end of the observation period - Statistics:
- No statistical analysis was used
Results and discussion
Effect levels
- Key result
- Sex:
- male/female
- Dose descriptor:

- Effect level:
- > 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Based on:

- Remarks on result:
- not determinable due to absence of adverse toxic effects
- Mortality:
- No deaths occurred during the study
- Clinical signs:
- other: Slight scales were observed in one female dosed with 1840 mg/kg on test day 8 until test day 12. All other animals were without clinical signs.
- Gross pathology:
- No macroscopic findings were observed at necropsy
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The median lethal dose of the test item was > 2000 mg/kg bw.
- Executive summary:
A group of five male and five female HanBrl: WIST (SPF) rats was treated with the test item at 1840 mg/kg by dermal application. The test item was used undiluted and administered at a volume of 2 mL/kg.
A second group of five male and five female HanBrl: WIST (SPF) rats was treated with the test item at 2000 mg/kg by dermal application. The test item was used undiluted and administered at a volume of 2.2 mL/kg.
The animals were examined for clinical signs four times during test day 1 and once daily during test days 2-15. Mortality/viability was recorded together with clinical signs at the same time intervals on test day 1. During test days 2-15 it was recorded two times a day. Body weights were recorded on day 1 prior to administration and on days 8 and 15. All animals were necropsied and examined macroscopically.
No deaths occurred during the study. Slight scales were observed in one female dosed with 1840 mg/kg on test day 8 until test day 12. All other animals were without clinical signs. The body weight of the animals was within the range commonly recorded for this strain and age. No macroscopic findings were observed at necropsy.
The median lethal dose of the test item was > 2000 mg/kg bw.
