Results and discussion

Results:
No erythema or edema was observed in any of the subjects at any reading time point.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Single dermal exposure for 48 hours under occlusive conditions to the undiluted test substance did not result in skin reactions. According to EU classification criteria, no classification for skin irritation is required.
CLP: not classified
DSD: not classified
