Results and discussion

In vivo

Results
Irritation parameter:
overall irritation score
Basis:
mean
Time point:
other: 24 hours
Score:
ca. 0.6
Max. score:
8
Reversibility:
fully reversible within: 48 hours
Irritant / corrosive response data:
Barely perceptible redness was reported in two of the three rabbits examined 24-hours after removal of the test material, with an average maximum score of 0.6 out of a possible 8. No irritation was reported at the other time points (1, 48, 72, 120 and 168 hours after the end of exposure) with any of the three rabbits.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not irritating
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
A 24-hour covered application of undiluted Santicizer 278 was not irritating to the intact skin of three rabbits.
Executive summary:

Undiluted Santicizer 278 was applied to the clipped, intact skin of one male and two female albino rabbits, covered with "plastic strips", and removed after 24 hours. The animals were subsequently assessed for signs of irritation during the 7-day observation period, and the data scored according to the method of Draize.

Barely perceptible redness was reported in two of the three rabbits examined 24-hours after removal of the test material, with an average maximum score of 0.6 out of a possible 8. No irritation was reported at the other time points in any of the three rabbits. The investigators classed the test material as non-irritating when applied (occluded) to the intact skin of male and female rabbits. Under EC CLP regulations, this study would indicate that Santicizer 278 is not irritating to the skin.
