Additional information

Some studies are available both for skin and eye irritation based on the patch-test method described in Hazardous Substances Regulation, US Federal Hazardous Labelling Act. Sect. 191-11 (February 1965)

The results show:

- no eye irritation for observation at 1, 24, 48 and 72 h.

- no skin irritation for observation at 1, 24, 48 and 72 h.

Acid Orange 8 doesn't show any irritating effects based on the available tests for similar substance 01 and as a consequence it could be stated that is not corrosive or irritant.

Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion endpoint:

The study was performed on a tested substance with a higher content of active ingredient.

Justification for selection of eye irritation endpoint:

The study was the most complete and assessed the effect on cornea, iris and conjunctiva.

Justification for classification or non-classification

No classification for skin irritation/corrosion is warranted under CLP Regulation (EC n. 1272/2008)

No classification for eye irritation/corrosion is warranted under CLP Regulation (EC n. 1272/2008)
