Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The primary skin irritation study was conducted in six albino rabbits. The skin on the backs was shaved free of hair. The test site was covered with a gauze pad after applying undiluted test material. The skin reactions were scored immediately after cleaning the test sites (24 hours) and at the end of 72 hours (48 hours after first scoring).
GLP compliance:
no

Test system

Type of coverage:
occlusive
Preparation of test site:
other: left side of the middorsal line was left intact while the skin on the right side was abraded
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
no
Amount / concentration applied:
0.5 mg of test material was applied to each site.
Duration of treatment / exposure:
24 hour(s)
Observation period:
72 hr (48 hr after the first scoring)
Number of animals:
6
Details on study design:
Primary skin irritation evaluations were conducted with 6 rabbits. The skin on the backs was shaved free of hair. The skin on the left side of the middorsal line was left intact, and skin on the right side was abraded by scratching the skin in a tic-tac pattern with a blunt needle. The abrasions were through the stratum corneum, but not deep enough to disturb the derma or induce bleeding.

A 0.5mg sample of the material was applied to each site and covered with a gauze pad. The entire trunk was wrapped with a rubberized cloth and a flexible wire screen held in place with tape.

After the 24-hour exposure, the bindings and patches were removed and the treated sites cleaned. The skin reactions were scored immediately (24 hours) and at the end of 72 hours (48 hours after first scoring).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
highly irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The compound produced erythema and edema on the intact and abraded sites.  The average irritation score was 5.7, and therefore the material is considered be a severe irritant to skin.
