Description of key information
Two in vivo studies are available to evaluate the irritant potential of DPTU.
DPTU is considered as not irritating to the skin (OECD 404, 2012) and not irritating to the eyes (OECD 405, 2012) according to the Regulation EC n°1272/2008.

- Executive summary:
The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential corrosive and irritant properties of the test item following dermal application on rabbits.
The test item was first applied for periods of 3 minutes, 1 hour and 4 hours to a single female New Zealand White rabbit.
After the 4-hour application, since the mean value from grading at 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal is < 2.3 for erythema and for edema, the test item was applied on the skin of two other animals for 4 hours.
A dosage-volume of 500 mg/flank was used.
The test item was placed on a gauze pad, moistened with drinking water treated by reverses osmosis, which was then applied to a skin area of approximately 6 cm2. The gauze pad was held in place by a non-irritation semi-occlusive dressing and a restraining bandage. After required period of contact with the skin, the dressing was removed.
Each animal was observed once a day for mortality and clinical signs. For each exposure period, cutaneous reactions were evaluated approximately 1 hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of the dressing and then daily until the end of the observation period. The mean values of the scores for erythema and edema were calculated for each animal. Body weight was recorded at the beginning and the end of the observation period.
On completion of the observation period, the animals were used subsequently for the evaluation of the ocular irritation potential of the same test item.
No unscheduled deaths occurred and no clinical signs were noted during the study.The body weight of the animals was unaffected.
After 3-minute and 1-hour exposures (one animal), a very slight erythema was noted from day 1 to day 3.
After a 4-hour exposure (three animals), a very slight erythema was noted from day 1 to day 2 (2/3 animals) or 3 (1/3 animals).
Mean scores calculated for each animal over 24, 48 and 72 hours were as follows:
. erythema: 0.7, 0.3, 0.3; showing no significant inflammation,
. edema: 0.0, 0.0; 0.0; showing no significant inflammation.
In conclusion, the test item is not classified as irritating to skin according to the criteria of CLP Regulation.

- Executive summary:
The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential irritant properties of the test item for the eye, 1,3-Diphenyl-2 -thiourea, following a single administration to rabbits.
The study was performed according to the international guidelines (OECD guideline No. 405, 24th April 2002, and Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, B.5, 30 May 2008) and in compliance with the principles of Good Laboratory Practice.
The test item, 1,3-Diphenyl-2-thiourea, was first administered to a single female New Zealand White rabbit.
As mean value from grading at 24, 48 and 72 hours after instillation was < 2 for conjunctival edema (chemosis) and for conjunctival redness, < 1 for iris lesion and for corneal opacity, the test item was administered in the left eye of two other animals.
The test item was administered inthe conjunctival sac of the left eye. The right eye remained untreated and served as control.
A quantity of 0.1 g/animal was used.
The eyes of the first animal were not rinsedjust after the 1-hour scoring, whereas, both eyes of two other animals were rinsed with a sterile isotonic saline solution (0.9% NaCl).
Each animal was observed once a day for mortality and clinical signs.Ocular reactions were observed approximately 1 hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the administration and then daily until the reversibility of the ocular reactions. The mean values of the scores for chemosis, redness of the conjunctiva, iris lesions and corneal opacity were calculated for each animal. Body weight was recorded on the day of treatment and the end of the observation period.
On completion of the observation period, the animals were sacrificed then discarded without macroscopic post-mortem examination.
A slight or moderate chemosis of the conjunctiva was observed in all animals on day 1, then a slight chemosis persisted until day 5 in 1/3 animals.
A slight or moderate redness of the conjunctiva was noted in all animals on day 1, and it persisted on day 2 in 1/3 animals and until day 4 in another animal.
Mean scores calculated for each animal over 24, 48 and 72 hours were as follows:
. chemosis: 1.0, 0.0 and 0.0; showing no significant eye irritation,
. redness of the conjunctiva: 1.3, 0.3 and 0.0; showing no significant eye irritation,
. iris lesions: 0.0, 0.0 and 0.0; showing no significant eye irritation,
. corneal opacity: 0.0, 0.0 and 0.0; showing no significant eye irritation.
In conclusion, the test item is not classified as irritating to the eyes according to the criteria of CLP Regulation.

Additional information
In vivo skin irritation study (OECD 404, Queudot 2012):
The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential corrosive and irritant properties of the test item following dermal application on rabbits.
The test item was first applied for periods of 3 minutes, 1 hour and 4 hours to a single female New Zealand White rabbit. A dosage-volume of 500 mg/flank was used. The test item was placed on a gauze pad, moistened with drinking water treated by reverses osmosis, which was then applied to a skin area of approximately 6 cm2. The gauze pad was held in place by a non-irritation semi-occlusive dressing and a restraining bandage. After required period of contact with the skin, the dressing was removed.
Each animal was observed once a day for mortality and clinical signs. For each exposure period, cutaneous reactions were evaluated approximately 1 hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of the dressing and then daily until the end of the observation period. The mean values of the scores for erythema and edema were calculated for each animal. Body weight was recorded at the beginning and the end of the observation period.
On completion of the observation period, the animals were used subsequently for the evaluation of the ocular irritation potential of the same test item.
No unscheduled deaths occurred and no clinical signs were noted during the study.The body weight of the animals was unaffected. After 3-minute and 1-hour exposures (one animal), a very slight erythema was noted from day 1 to day 3. After a 4-hour exposure (three animals), a very slight erythema was noted from day 1 to day 2 (2/3 animals) or 3 (1/3 animals).
In conclusion, the test item is not classified as irritating to skin according to the criteria of CLP Regulation.

In conclusion, the test item, 1,3-Diphenyl-2-thiourea, is not classified as irritating to the eyes according to the criteria of CLP Regulation.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the available data, no classification for irritation is required for DPTU according to the Regulation EC 1272/2008.
Justification: In both skin and eyes studies, the irritation scores obtained with DPTU are smaller than the thresholds for classification.
