Amount / concentration applied:
Amount:0.01ml
concentration applied:100%
or
0.01ml of 1-methylpiperazine solutions in water, propylene glycol, or acetone
Duration of treatment / exposure:
24 hours

Observation period:
24 hours
Number of animals:
5
Details on study design:
- Area of exposure: belly of each rabbit

-SCORING SYSTEM: Primary skin irritation on rabbits was recorded in a 10-grade ordinal series and was based upon the severest reaction that developed on the clipped skin of each of five albino rabbits. Grade 1 in indicated no irritation and Grade 2 the least visible capillary injection from the undiluted chemical. Grade 6 indicates necrosis when undiluted and Grade 10 indicates necrosis from a 0.01% solution.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (irritant) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Primary skin Irritation score for 1-methylpiperazine (CAS No: 109-01-3) was Grade 6. Based on the grade, 1-methylpiperazine (CAS No: 109-01-3) was considered to be irritating to the skin of albino rabbits
Executive summary:

The skin irritation test was conducted on five rabbits’ belly to assess the degree of skin irritation of test chemical 1-methylpiperazine (CAS No: 109-01-3).

 

Each rabbits received 0.1mlof undiluted1-methylpiperazineor of solutions in water, propylene glycol, or acetoneon clipped belly skin for 24 hour under uncovered condition.

 

Primary skin irritation on rabbits was recorded in a 10-grade ordinal series and was based upon the severest reaction that developed on the clipped skin of each of five albino rabbits.

 

Grade 1 in indicated no irritation and Grade 2 the least visible capillary injection from the undiluted chemical. Grade 6 indicates necrosis when undiluted and Grade 10 indicates necrosis from a 0.01% solution.

 

The primary skin Irritation score for1-methylpiperazine (CAS No: 109-01-3)was observed to be Grade 6 indicatingNecrosis of skin in treated rabbits. Thusbased on the grade, 1-methylpiperazine (CAS No: 109-01-3)was considered to be irritating to the skin of albino rabbits.
