Details on study design:
Test Item was used as delivered by the Sponsor. The test item, 0.5 g (per animal) was weighed on a Sartorius balance and moistened with distilled water and applied to the intact skin. The pH of the test item was measured before the study initiation date. A formulation of a 1 % (w/v) aqueous suspension was prepared for measuring the pH. The average pH was found to be 6.90 (from Solubility and pH Test).

Approximately 24 (± 2) hours before application of the test item, both the flanks were clipped with a clipper, exposing an area of approximately 100 cm" (10 cm x 10 cm).

Animals without any skin injury or overt signs of irritation were used in the test. A single male rabbit was treated first. As no severe skin reactions were observed until 48 hours (approximately) post exposure, the test was completed by exposing the remaining two male rabbits. The animals were exposed to the test item for a period of 4 hours (approximately). On the day of treatment, 0.5 g of test item was transferred to a surgical gauze patch, (approximately, 4 cm x 4 cm) and moistened with 0.5 mL of distilled water. The gauze patch was applied to the intact skin of the clipped area. The gauze loaded with test item was applied to the treatment site of the
clipped area (left flank), while the control site (right flank) was sham treated with distilled water. The patches were covered with a semi-occlusive dressing. The dressing was wrapped around the abdomen and anchored with non irritating adhesive tape.


The duration of exposure was 4 hours (approximately), after which the dressing was removed and the skin was gently wiped clean with cotton soaked in distilled water.

The skin reaction was assessed according to the numerical scoring system listed in OECD guidelines No. 404, "Grading of Skin Reactions" (28111 July 2015) (Refer Section 9), at approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours post removal of the dressing, gauze patch and unabsorbed test item.

Irritant
· (Category 2) (applies to all authorities)

(1) Mean value of> 2.3 - < 4.0 for erythema/eschar or for oedema in at least 2 of 3 tested animals from grading at 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal or, if reactions are delayed, from grades on 3 consecutive days after the onset of dermal reactions, or
(2) Inflammation that persists to the end of the observation period normally 14 days in at least 2 animals, particularly taking into account alopecia (limited area), hyperkeratosis, hyperplasia, and scaling, or
(3) In some cases where there is pronounced variability of response among animals, with very definite positive effects related to chemical exposure in a single animal but less than the criteria above.

Mild irritant
(Category 3) (applies to only some authorities)

Mean value of> 1.5 - < 2.3 for erythema/eschar or for oedema from grading in at least 2 of 3 tested animals from grades at 24, 48 and 72 hours or, if reactions are
delayed, from grades on 3 consecutive days after the onset of dermal reactions (when not included in the irritant category above).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Non Irritant
Conclusions:
Since the mean score for erythema and oedema did not qualify for Category 2 or 3 of the classification criteria, CHUA is classified as per the Harmonized Integrated Classification System as "Non Irritant" to the rabbit skin.
Executive summary:

The acute dermal irritation/corrosion of CHUA in rabbits was investigated according to OECD test guideline Number 404. The test item was applied by topical (semi-occlusive) application, 0.5 g to the intact skin of left flank of a single male rabbit. As no severe skin reactions were observed upto 48 hours post test item application (approximately), the test was completed by exposing the remaining two male rabbits. The test item was left in contact with the skin for an exposure period of 4 hours. The scoring of skin reactions were done at approximately 1, 24, 48, and 72 hours post exposure for Animal No. 01, 02 and 03 (post removal of the dressing, gauze patch and unabsorbed test item).

The individual mean score for erythema/eschar formation for Animal No. 01., 02 and 03 at 24, 48 and 72 hours were 0.00, 0.00 and 0.00, respectively. The individual mean score of oedema for Animal No. 01, 02 and 03 at 24, 48 and 72 hours were 0.00, 0.00 and 0.00 respectively.

The test item did not induce any degree of erythema or oedema in Animal No. 01, 02, and 03 at approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours observation post exposure (post removal of the dressing, gauze patch and unabsorbed test item). All the treated animals were sent for necropsy after 72 hour observation period. All animals survived till the end of the observation period. No clinical signs were observed in any of the animals throughout the acclimatization and experimental periods respectively. The body weights of all the animals were considered to be within the normal range of variability commonly observed for this species, strain and age. No abnormalities were detected in any of the treated animals during necropsy at terminal sacrifice.
