Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
All calculated mean scores were well below the threshold for classification.
Therefore the test item is not subject to classification and labelling.
Executive summary:
The test item was tested for primary skin irritation according to OECD TG 405.

 

Under the conditions of this experiment, the test item was found to cause mean primary irritation scores of 0.0 for cornea, iris, and conjunctivae chemosis. Mean primary irritation scores for conjunctivae redness were 0.3 in two and 0.0 in one rabbit. No corrosion was observed at any of the measuring intervals. Orange staining of the eyelashes of the treated eyes by coloration of the test article was observed in all animals until termination of test. All signs of irritation were fully reversible within 48 h.
