Any other information on results incl. tables

Evaluation of skin erythema was not possible during the first 48 hours (two animals) / 72 hours (one animal) due to the intense coloration by the test substance. Nevertheless, no other inflammatory signs (e.g. oedema formation) became apparent within this period and no irritant effects were observed after 72 hours and 7 days respectively. Therefore, the authors concluded that a significant irritant effect of the test substance to the skin may be excluded.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Executive summary:

The skin irritating potential of 77PD was evaluated in a GLP and OECD guideline study (TG 404) in New Zealand White rabbits (Bayer AG 1990). 500 mg of the test substance was applied under semi-occlusive conditions onto the clipped intact skin of 3 female rabbits for an exposure period of 4 hours. Evaluation of skin irritation was made 1 hour, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours and seven days after termination of exposure. The degree of skin irritation was recorded as specified by DRAIZE and any additional serious lesions or toxic effects were also recorded. Evaluation of skin erythema was not possible during the first 48 hours (two animals) and 72 hours (one animal) due to the intense coloration by the test substance. Nevertheless, no other inflammatory signs (e.g. oedema, formation) became apparent within this period and no irritant effects were observed after 72 hours and 7 days respectively. The authors concluded that therefore a significant irritant effect of 77PD to the skin may be excluded.
