Irritant / corrosive response data:
No erythema or oedema were observed in any of the test animals at any of the scoring intervals (1, 24, 48 and 72 hours) following a 4-hour exposure to the test substance. No staining of the treated skin by the test substance was observed and no test substance remnants were seen.
Other effects:
No symptoms of systemic toxicity were observed in the animals during the test period and no mortality occurred.
