Irritant / corrosive response data:
Very slight erythema in two animals (score 1), well defined erythema (score 2) in one animal. No oedema in all animals. No irritation symptoms /erythema, oedema, and/or other signs)) were observed after 1 week. Study was terminated one week after treatment.
Other effects:
no other effects observed

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item was tested for skin irritation in rabbits. The observed symptoms were evaluated as fully reversible alterations.
Executive summary:

In this skin irritation study albino New Zealand White rabbits were treated with the test item. The test item was applied to the intact skin of rabbits as a single dose of 0.5 g. The irritation symptoms were examined at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours, then one week after the patch removal.

One hour after the patch removal in two animals very slight erythema (scores 1-1) and in one animal well defined erythema (score 2) was observed on the treated skin surfaces. There was no oedema observed during the study.

24 hours after the patch removal the degree of erythema did not change compared to the previous observation.

48 hours after the patch removal very slight erythema (scores 1-1-1) was found in all animals.

72 hours after the patch removal the irritation symptoms did not change compared to the previous observation.

1 week after the patch removal, no irritation symptoms (erythema, oedema and/or other signs) were observed in any of the animals. Thus, one week after the treatment the study was terminated.

The animals’ individual mean scores (considering readings at 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal) were as follows:

- erythema: 1.00, 1.00, 1.33

- oedema: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00

During the study the control areas of all animals were symptom-free. During the study the general state and behaviour of all animals were normal. There were no notable body weight changes during the contact and observation period.
