Test system

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:
clipped
Vehicle:
other: PEG 400
Controls:
no
Amount / concentration applied:
500 mg moistened with 0.6 mL PEG 400
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 h
Observation period:
Up to 7 days
Number of animals:
3
Details on study design:
On the day before the test each of a group of three rabbits was clipped free of fur from the dorsal/flank area. Only animals with a healthy intact epidermis by gross observation were selected for the study.
On the day of the test a suitable test site was selected on the back of each rabbit. A quantity of 500 mg of the test material was introduced under a 2.5 * 2.5 cm gauze patch and placed in position. The patch was secured in position with a strip of surgical adhesive tape.
Four hours after application the patches were removed from each animal and any residual test material removed with tap water.
Approximately 30-60 min following the removal of the patches, and 24, 48 and 72 hours and 7 days later, the test sites were examined for evidence of primary irritation.

Study design

The purpose of this GLP study performed according to OECD GL 404 was to assess the irritancy potential of the test item to the skin of the New Zealand White rabbits.

Results

The application of the test material to the intact skin produced no significant irritation.

Conclusion

The test material gave no indication for skin irritation in rabbits.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test material gave no indication for skin irritation in rabbits.
Executive summary:

This study was performed according to GLP and is fully compliant with OECD GL 404. Based on the results of this study it was concluded that the test item is not irritant to the skin of rabbits.
