Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Primary skin irritation on rabbits is recorded in a 10-grade ordinal series for the severest reaction that develops on the clipped skin of each of five albino rabbits within 24 hours of the uncovered application of 0.01 ml of test substance (undiluted or as solution in water, propylene glycol, or acetone). The scoring system was slightly similar to the method reported by Draize and associates.
GLP compliance:
no

SCORING SYSTEM:
The following scoring table was used:
- Grade 1: no reaction whatever from undiluted sample,
- Grade 2: an average reaction equivalent to a trace of capillary injection from undiluted sample,
- Grade 3: strong capillary injection from undiluted sample,
- Grade 4: slight erythema from undiluted sample,
- Grade 5: strong erythema, edema or slight necrosis from undiluted sample,
- Grade 6 and higher: necrosis from undiluted sample,
- Grade 6: a 10% solution gives no reaction more severe than edema
- Grade 7: indicates necrosis from a 1%s olution
- Grade 8: indicates necrosis from a 0.1% solution
- Grade 9: indicates necrosis from a 0.01% solution
- Grade 10: indicates necrosis from a 0.01% or any weaker solution.
