Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The skin irritation potential was investigated according to the OECD Guideline 404. The test material contained the registration substance by 40 %.
The outcome of the study corresponded to "irritating" for the test material according to DSD 67/548/EEC. Taking account that the corresponding acid is not an irritant toskin and no local effect was observed in the combined repeated dose and reproductive/developmental toxicity screening (OECD 422), the registraton substance is assessed to be of "irritating". Xi, R38 is assigned.
Executive summary:

The skin irritation potential was investigated according to the OECD Guideline 404. The test material contained the registration substance by 40 %.

The outcome of the study corresponds to "irritating" for the test material according to DSD 67/548/EEC, whereas further evidences were considered to be necessary due to applied dose concentration of 40%.

Further evidences included:

- The obtained potency is far from the borderline to "corrosive".

- The registration substance is salt of a weak acid. When dissolved in the biological fluid, an immediate dissociation is expected. The stable dissolved species are then sodim ion, triethanolammonium ion and acid form of the registration substance. The acid form of the registration substance is not skin irritating (data provided as supporting study) and no irritation can be assigned to sodium ion. Triethanolamine as well as triethanolammonium compounds (i.e. triethanolammonium chloride) are classified as "irritating" and not "corrosive".

- No local irritation effect was observed in the repeated dose toxicity study, in which the registration substance was given per gavage to the rats (endpoint study record provided in 7.5).

In conclusion, the assignment of "irritating" (R38 according to DSD 67/548/EEC) for the registration substance is justified.
