Irritant / corrosive response data:
Very slight erythema (barely perceptible) (Grade 1) observed in one rabbit at the 6 hour examination and one different rabbit at the 24 hour examination. The scores for erythema and oedema were 'Grade 0' (No response) at all other occasions of examination.
Other effects:
There were no other effects of treatment.

Any other information on results incl. tables

Dermal reactions to treatment were confined to very slight erythema (barely perceptible) in single animals at the 1 or 24 hour examinations. Individual dermal scores are appended in the 'attached background information' window below.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: very mild skin irritant
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: Draize method
Conclusions:
The test material is an extremely mild skin irritant to rabbits
Executive summary:

In a 72 hour primary skin irritation study, 6 rabbits (New Zealand White) were exposed to a 4 hour semi-occluded application of 0.5 ml of undiluted di-isononyl phthalate to 1x1 inch.of clipped doral skin, and the sites examined 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after treatment. Irritation responses were confined to very slight erythema in single rabbits at the1or 24 hour examinations. The primary skin irritation index was 0.08, and the test material was considered to be an extremely mild skin irritant.

The study was considered suitable for classification, and satisfied the guideline requirements for rabbit primary skin irritation studies.
