Reference

Reference 1

Endpoint:

skin irritation: in vitro / ex vivo

Conclusions:

The test material failed to induce sufficient dermal irritation to be considered irritating to skin.

Executive summary:

In this guideline (CFR 1500.41) study, the test material (unchanged) was administered topically to the intact skin of 6 rabbits. Results were measured at 24 and 72 hours using the draize scale. The test material failed to induce sufficient dermal irritation to be considered a dermal irritant.

Endpoint conclusion

Endpoint conclusion:

no adverse effect observed (not irritating)

Irritant / corrosive response data:

Mild (mostly 1 out of 5) conjunctiva were seen in most (5 out of 6) animals at 24 hours only, this has dissapeared at subsequent time points. No adverse observations were recorded with the cornea or iris at any time point.

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

The test material failed to induce sufficient eye irritation to be considered irritating to skin.

Executive summary:

In this guideline (CFR 1500.42) study, 0.1mL of the test item (no vehicle) was applied to one eye of 6 rabbits and remained unwashed for 24 hours.

Mild (mostly 1 out of 5) conjunctiva were seen in most (5 out of 6) animals at 24 hours only, this has dissapeared at subsequent time points. No adverse observations were recorded with the cornea or iris at any time point.

The test material failed to induce sufficient eye irritation to be considered irritating to skin.

Endpoint conclusion

Endpoint conclusion:

no adverse effect observed (not irritating)

Endpoint conclusion

Endpoint conclusion:

no study available

Justification for classification or non-classification

The registered substance did not meet the criteria for consideration as an irritant to the skin or the eye in accordance with the Classification, Labelling, and Packaging (CLP) regulation.
