Any other information on results incl. tables

All animals showed induration and encrustation of the application site beginning at 24 hours after removal of patches. Within 7 days there was a detachment of the necrotic skin areas of the application site, partly under formation of fissures. The underlying skin areas appeared smooth and shiny, but were sometimes encrusted. Within the 14-day post observation period no restitution with normal skin findings at the application site were observed.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
corrosive
Remarks:
Migrated information
Executive summary:

In a dermal irritation/corrosion test the test substance was corrosive to the skin of rabbits according to OECD TG 404. Within the 14-day post-observation period no restitution with normal skin findings at the application site were observed.
