OECD 402/OCSPP 870,12: Acute dermal toxicity
The OECD 402/OCSPP 870,12 Acute Dermal Toxicity Test measures potential adverse effects of short-term dermal exposure to a test article, and is one of the first tests administered when determining chemical safety.
It provides information on likely consequences to humans of short-term exposure to crop protection/chemical products following dermal contamination and becomes a common basis for classification and labeling.
