Description of key information

In a skin irritation/corrosion study in 7 human volunteers (no sex defined) the test substance (no dose defined) was applied to the right forearm and fixed with a ball of absorbent cotton and adhesive bandage for 24 hours. The observation period was 7 days. No skin irritating or corrosive effects could be observed (Löser E./ Kimmerle G., Bayer AG, 1975).
In an irritation/corrosion study 2 New Zealand White rabbits (male and female) were treated with the testsubstance as follows: the test substance was applied in a dose of approximatively 500 µl onto the skin of the ear and fixed with an adhesive bandage for 24 hours. The observation period was 7 days. No signs of irritation or corrosion could be observed (Löser E./ Kimmerle G., Bayer AG, 1975).
In an eye irritation study the test substance was applied to the conjunctival sack of rabbits (no nr.of animals given) in a dose of 100 µl. During the 7 days of observation time no changes of the mucous membrane, iris and cornea could be observed. Mesamoll was found to be not eye irritating (Löser E./ Kimmerle G., Bayer AG, 1975).

Mesamoll was found to be not eye irritating.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Executive summary:

In this eye irritation study the test substance was applied to the conjunctival sack of rabbits (no nr.of animals given) in a dose of 100 µl.

During the 7 days of observation time no changes of the mucous membrane, iris and cornea could be observed.

Mesamoll was found to be not eye irritating.

The NOEL therefore is 100 µl.
