Executive summary:

The skin irritation potential of this substance was evaluated in rabbits. A 0.5 ml portion of the test material was applied to the intact and abraded skin of six rabbits and covered with gauze patched and wrapped with an impervious material. After 24 hours the wrapping was removed and the treated areas were examined. Readings were also made at 72 hours. Mean 24 -72 hours scores were determined to be 1.5 and 0 erythema, respectively, in both intact and abraded skin. In accordance with EU CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, classification is not required for skin irritation.

The untreated left eyes served as controls. The treated eyes were examined at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7 days following instillation of the test material in accordance with the Draize method. No corneal opacity, iritis, conjunctival irritation was observed in any animal at any observation period. In accordance with EU CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, classification of this substance is not required for eye irritation.

Additional information

Skin

The skin irritation potential of this substance was evaluated in rabbits. A 0.5 ml portion of the test material was applied to the intact and abraded skin of six rabbits and covered with gauze patched and wrapped with an impervious material. After 24 hours the wrapping was removed and the treated areas were examined. Readings were also made at 72 hours. Mean 24-72 hours scores were determined to be 1.5 and 0 for erythema and edema, respectively, in both intact and abraded skin. In accordance with EU CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, classification is not required for skin irritation.

Eye

The eye irritation potential of the test substance was evaluated in rabbits. A dose of 0.1 ml of the test material was instilled in the right eyes of six healthy young adult albino rabbits. The untreated left eyes served as controls. The treated eyes were examined at 1, 2 and 3 days following instillation of the test material in accordance with the Draize method. No corneal opacity, iritis, conjunctival irritation was observed in any animal at any observation period. In accordance with EU CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, classification of this substance is not required for eye irritation.


Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion endpoint:
The available study is reliable and can support the development of a chemical safety assessment.

Justification for selection of eye irritation endpoint:
The available study is reliable and can support the development of a chemical safety assessment.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The substance does not require classification in accordance with the criteria specified in either Regulation 1272/2008 or Directive 67/546/EEC.
