Results and discussion

In vitro

Results
Irritation / corrosion parameter:
% tissue viability
Value:
7.8
Vehicle controls validity:
valid
Negative controls validity:
valid
Remarks:
Value is 2.287 and lies between the range of >=0.8 - <=2.8 as per OECD 439
Positive controls validity:
valid
Remarks:
Value is 7.4% which is <=20% as required by the method

positive indication of irritation

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (irritant) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Mean value of three test data gave a value of 7.8% mean issue viability in the EpiDerm skin test (OECD 439).
Accoridng to the test protocol, a value of <=50% predicts Irritant GHS Cat 2.
