Molecular formula:
C55H37Cl5F6N8O8
IUPAC Name:
3,3'-{(2-chloro-5-methyl-1,4-phenylene)bis[imino(1,3-dioxobutane-2,1-diyl)diazene-2,1-diyl]}bis{4-chloro-N-[2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]benzamide}
Test material form:
solid: nanoform, no surface treatment

Test animals

Species:
rabbit
Strain:
other: Russian breed
Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ANIMALS
- Weight at study initiation: 2-3 kg
- Housing: individually (after shaving to prevent injuries by bites) in V2A wire cages
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): NAFAG, Gossau SG, rabbit food; ad libitum
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): drinking water; ad libitum

No additional details provided

Test system

Type of coverage:
occlusive
Preparation of test site:
other: shaved or abraded (only data from the shaved skin sites are presented here, since they are suitable for assessment)
Vehicle:
other: The test material was prepared for application in polyethylene glycol (PEG; prepared as 7 parts PEG: 3 parts saline solution).
Controls:
other: untreated skin sites of the same animals
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5 g
- Concentration (if solution): as 50% trituration in polyethylene glycol
Duration of treatment / exposure:
24 hours
Observation period:
72 hours
Number of animals:
6 (3 males and 3 females)
Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm of the right flank (the whole back and flanks was shaved with an electric clipper 2 days before treatment). The shaven skin on the left side was slightly scarified immediately before treatment.
- % coverage: the patch was covered with a plastic film (5 cm x 5 cm))
- Type of wrap if used: the plastic film was fixed to the body with adhesive tape

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Time after start of exposure: the gauze patches were removed 24 hours after the application

SCORING SYSTEM: comparable to the OECD scoring system (only 24- and 72-hour scores were determined)

Irritant / corrosive response data:
No irritation was observed, neither on intact skin sites nor on the abraded ones. It could therefore be assumed that the test substance is not irritating according to EU-CLP.
