Due to intensive staining by the test compound erythema was not assessable. For the purpose of calculating the primary irritation index erythema was assumed to be equal to edema based on the correlation existing (Marzulli and Maibach, Fol. Cosm. Tox. 13, 355, 1975).

Additional information

Acid Yellow 151 shows a minimal interaction with skin and eye rabbit during the tests.

Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion endpoint:

Study conducted according to internationally accepted testing procedure. The test made in the 1979 is more detailed than the 1976 study.

Justification for selection of eye irritation endpoint:

Study conducted according to internationally accepted testing procedure. The test made in the 1979 is more detailed than the 1976 study.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the Regulation EC n. 1272/2008 eye irritation means the production of changes in the eye following the application of test substance to the anterior surface of the eye, which are fully reversible within 21 days of application. All study results indicates that Acid Yellow 151 shows a minimal interaction with eye. No classification is necessary.

Based on the Regulation EC n. 1272/2008, table 3.2.2 (concerning skin irritation) the results are to low for classification and are fully reversible within 24h. No classification is necessary.
