Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test substance was found to be a non-irritant to the skin.
Executive summary:

The irritation potential of the test item was evaluated in a study conducted according to the United States Environmental Agency (EPA) § 163.81- 5 "Primary dermal irritation study", Federal Register, Vol. 43, No. 163, August 22, 1978. 6 rabbits (3 males; 3 females) were used in this study. Gauze patches of 2.5 x 2.5 cm laden with 0.5 g of the test material were applied to the prepared abraded and intact skin for the exposure duration of 24 hours. The reaction of the skin was appraised upon removal during an observation period of 7 days. The scores read after 24 and 72 hours for erythema and edema for the intact as well as for the abraded skin were summed up and divided by 4. Minimal irritation was recorded at the 24 hour observation. The mean 24/48/72 hour scores were 0.167 and 0.278 for erythema and edema score, respectively, for intact skin. The erythema and edema was reversed within 72 hours. The primary irritation index was calculated to be 0.5, indicating potential to cause a minimal irritation when applied to intact and abraded rabbit skin. However, based on the EU CLP criteria, the test item can be classified as a non-irritant to the skin.
