Remarks on result:
no indication of irritation
Irritant / corrosive response data:
Individual observation of skin reaction at 1, 24, 48 and 72 h after the patch removal showed no formation of erythema, eschar and oedema. Therefore the primary irritation index of the test item was calculated to be 0.
Other effects:
There were neither dead animals nor detectable clinical signs in all test animals which could be considered to be due to the test item application. The bodyweights of two animals measured at 24 h were lower than measured at 0 h. All animals showed normal body weight gain at 72 h.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not irritating
Conclusions:
The test substance was assessed for skin irritation according to OECD Guideline 404. The test substance induced no dermal irritation when applied to male New Zealand white rabbits and was therefore considered a non-irritant. In addition, there was no mortality and no treatment-related clinical signs were observed.
