Irritant / corrosive response data:
At the first observation, 1 hour after the application, erythema was not assessable due to marked red staining by the test item. This staining persisted as a light staining until the end of the 14 day observation period. No irritant or corrosive effects were noted on the treated skin of any animal at any of the measuring intervals (all scores for erythema or edema = 0) and no clinical signs were observed.
Other effects:
no other effects observed

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item did not reveal any irritation potential on the skin of rabbits, tested in this study according to OECD test guideline no. 404 and GLP conditions.
Executive summary:

The primary skin irritation potential of the test item was investigated according to OECD test guideline no. 404. The test item was applied by topical semi-occlusive application of 0.5 g to the intact left flank of each of three young adult New Zealand White rabbits. The duration of treatment was four hours. The scoring of skin reactions was performed 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours, as well as 7, 10 and 14 days after removal of the dressing. The mean score was calculated across 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal) for each animal for erythema/eschar grades and for oedema grades, separately. The test item did not elicit any skin reactions at the application site of any animal at any of the observation times (all scores 0). The individual mean score for erythema/eschar and oedema for each of the three animals was therefore 0. At the first observation, 1 hour after the application, erythema was not assessable due to marked red staining by the test item. This staining persisted as a light staining until the end of the 14 day observation period. No irritant or corrosive effects were noted on the treated skin of any animal at any of the measuring intervals and no clinical signs were observed.
