Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The substance is not irritating
Executive summary:

Under the conditions of this experiment, C4-diacetal was found to cause a primary irritation score of 0.11, when applied to intact rabbit skin. Local signs (mean values from 1 hour to 72 hours) consisted of grade 0.25 erythema and grade 0.00 edema.

In the area of application, no staining of the treated skin by pigment or coloring of the test article was observed.

No corrosive effect occurred on the skin of any animal at measuring interval.
