SCORING SYSTEM:
- Erythema and eschar formation:
-- No erythema: 0
-- Very slight (barely discernible) erythema: 1
-- Well-defined erythema: 2
-- Moderate erythema: 3
-- Severe erythema with slight eschar formation: 4
- Oedema formation:
-- No oedema: 0
-- Very slight (barely discernible) oedema: 1
-- Slight oedema (edges of area well-defined by definite raising): 2
-- Moderate oedema (raised approximately 1 mm): 3
-- Severe oedema (raised more than 1 mm and extending beyond area of exposure): 4
- Primary irritation index (PII) is the sum of the erythema and oedema scores:
-- Not irritating: 0 ≤ PII < 0.5
-- Slightly irritating: 0.5 ≤ PII < 2.0
-- Moderately irritating: 2.0 ≤ PII < 5.0
-- Severely irritating: 5.0 ≤ PII < 6.0
-- "Erosive" [Corrosive]: 6.0 ≤ PII < 8.0

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- In a guideline in vivo study, magnesium potassium fluoride silicate (Mg2.7K0.7Si4O10F2) was found to be non-irritating to the skin of rabbits.
- Executive summary:
The in vivo skin irritation potential of magnesium potassium fluoride silicate (Mg2.7K0.7Si4O10F2) was assessed in an FDA guideline study (Primary irritation study method) in three female albino rabbits. There was no evidence of a skin irritation reaction when the test substance (0.5 g) was applied to the intact and abraded skin of the test animals for 24 hours under occlusive conditions (with observation for up to 72 hours after patch removal).
