Conclusions:
Classification: not irritating
Executive summary:

The test substance was moistened with water and administered dermally to a small patch of shaven skin of 6 female rabbits and covered for 4 hours each. Observations of the resulting skin condition were made 30 minutes after test substance removal, and daily thereafter for 4 days.

All 6 animals showed no response to treatment.
