Description of key information

The test material was subject to an Acute Dermal Irritation/Corrosion Test in the rabbit according to OECD TG 404. No skin reactions occured except a very slight erythema in 1/3 animals one hour after the end of exposure. Therefore, the test item has not to be classified for skin irritation according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008


The test material was subject to an Acute Eye Irritation/Corrosion Test in the rabbit according to OECD TG 405. No corneal effects were observed. Iridial responses were observed 24 h after application, fully reversible by 48 h after application. Conjunctival redness and Chemosis were observed in 3/3 animals up to 48 hours after application, fully reversible by 72 hours after application. As the mean values of the observed eye responses fall below the critical values for classification according to the criteria of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, the test material is not irritating to eyes and has not to be classified for eye irritation.

Conclusions:
According to the classification criteria of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 the test material is not irritating to eyes under these test conditions. Test material Permanent-Gelb P-GRL neu contains relevant amounts of the submission substance. Therefore the test results are considered adequate to fulfil the endpoint requirements.
Executive summary:

The test material was subject to an Acute Eye Irritation/Corrosion Test in the rabbit according to OECD TG 405. No corneal effects were observed. Iridial responses were observed 24 h after application, fully reversible by 48 h after application. Conjunctival redness and Chemosis were observed in 3/3 animals up to 48 hours after application, fully reversible by 72 hours after application. As the mean values of the observed eye responses fall below the critical values for classification according to the criteria of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, the test material is not irritating to eyes and has not to be classified for eye irritation.
