Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: EC Regulation 1272/2008
Conclusions:
According to the EC Regulation 1272/2008 and subsequent regulations on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures, trans-N1,N1,N4,N4-Tetrakis(2-hydroxyethyl)1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxamide was n o n - i r r i t a t i n g to skin, hence, no labelling is required.
Executive summary:

The purpose of this study was to examine trans-N1,N1,N4,N4-Tetrakis(2-hydroxyethyl)1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxamide for acute dermal irritation/corrosion properties in rabbits (patch test), according to OECD guideline 404, EC method B.4.and OCSPP guideline 870.2500.

Under the present test conditions, none of the three male rabbits exposed for 4 hours to 500 mg trans-N1,N1,N4,N4-Tetrakis(2-hydroxyethyl)1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxamide/patch (semi-occlusive conditions) showed any skin reaction. There were no systemic intolerance reactions. Therefore, the test item was non-irritating to skin, hence no labelling is required.
