Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
slightly irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Mild and transient erythema was observed in 2 of 3 animals.
Executive summary:

In this study 3 male rabbits were exposed via semioccluded patch for 4 hours to 0.5 g of Versatic 1019 to assess the irritation potential. Mild and transient erythema was noted in 2 of 3 animals. All reactions were fully reversible within 6 days post exposure.
