Description of key information
Two skin irritation studies are available. The 1986 study was conducted in accordance with GLPs and is better documented and therefore selected as the key study. This study concluded the substance to be irritating to the skin.
Three eye irritation studies are available which all demonstrate no adverse effect.

- Study period:
- Started January 7, 1986 and terminated on January 21 ,1986.
- Reliability:

- Species:
- rabbit
- Strain:
- New Zealand White
- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- Healthy male, young adult, New Zealand White albino rabbits obtained from ENKI-Konijnenfarm, Someren, the Netherlands, were used as the experimental animals. The body weight range was 2500-3500 g. The animals were identified by earmarking.The animals were housed individually in suspended, galvanized cages, fitted with wire-mesh floor and front. The cages were placed in a room, controlled for light (12 hours light/dark cycle), temperature (18+/-3°C), ventilation (c. 10 air changes/hour), and relative humidity (40-70%) throughout the test period. A standard laboratory rabbit diet and tap water were provided ad libitum.
- Type of coverage:
- occlusive
- Preparation of test site:
- other: shaved; abraded and unabraded
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Amount / concentration applied:
- 0.5 ml per site
- Duration of treatment / exposure:
- After an exposure period of 4 hours the patches and the test material applied were removed and the resulting skin reactions were evaluated by the method of Draize et a1. (J. Pharmaco1. Exp. Ther. 82 (1944) 377-390).
- Observation period:
- 8 days
- Number of animals:
- six; male
- Details on study design:
- After an acclimatization period of six days, i.e. one day prior to the start of the experiment, the hair was removed from the back and flanks of the animals using electric clippers in a way as to avoid abrasions. Six rabbits were treated on the intact skin and on the abraded skin. The abrasions were minor incisions of the stratum corneum, but not sufficiently deep to disturb the derma or to produce bleeding. An amount of 0.5 m1 of the undiluted test substance was brought onto the intact and the abraded skin under a surgical patch measuring 1 inch x 1 inch. The patches were fixed to the application site by means of adhesive tape and the entire trunk of each rabbit was wrapped with an impervious material to maintain the test patches in position and to retard evaporation of the test substance. After an exposure period of 4 hours the patches and the test material applied were removed and the resulting skin reactions were evaluated by the method of Draize et a1. (J. Pharmaco1. Exp. Ther. 82 (1944) 377-390). Further readings were made after 28, 52 and 76 hours.

A sample of Trigonox C was examined undiluted for primary skin irritating properties in an experiment with six albino rabbits. The test substance generally caused well-defined or moderate erythema and very slight to slight ischemia in all (six) rabbits. In addition, slight scaliness and very slight incrustation was observed in a limited number of animals. The reactions of the abraded skin were slightly more pronounced than those of the intact skin, but all reactions were considered to be reversible.

- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Species:
- rabbit
- Strain:
- New Zealand White
- Details on test animals or tissues and environmental conditions:
- Healthy male, young adult, New Zealand White albino rabbits obtained from ENKI-Konijnenfarm, Someren, the Netherlands, were used as the experimental animals. The body weight range was 2500-3500 g. The animals were identified by earmarking.The animals were housed individually in suspended, galvanized cages, fitted with wire-mesh floor and front. The cages were placed in a room, controlled for light (12 hours light/dark cycle), temperature (18+/-3°C), ventilation (c. 10 air changes/hour), and relative humidity (40-70%) throughout the test period. A standard laboratory rabbit diet and tap water were provided ad libitum.
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Controls:
- other: untreated eye of each animal served as control
- Amount / concentration applied:
- 0.1 ml - One tenth of a milliliter of the undiluted test substance was allowed to fall on the everted lower lid of one eye of each rabbit.
- Duration of treatment / exposure:
- After administration the upper and lower lid were carefully closed and subsequently held together for about one second before releasing, to prevent loss of material.
- Observation period (in vivo):
- 72 hours
- Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
- 3
- Details on study design:
- Both eyes of each rabbit provisionally selected were examined within 24 hours before testing; three animals without observable eye defects were used. One tenth of a milliliter of the undiluted test substance was allowed tofall on the everted lower lid of one eye of each rabbit. After administration the upper and lower lid were carefully closed and subsequently held together for about one second before releasing, to prevent loss of material. The other eye remaining untreated, served as a control. The eyes were not washed out following administration and the animals were released immediately. Ocular reactions were judged using a scoring scale which is part of the attached complete report. Eye effects were examined after one hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours.

Three eye irritation studies are available which all demonstrate no adverse effect.
In an acute inhalation study (Dean, 1977; see chapter 7.2.2. Acute toxicity: inhalation) involving exposure to saturated vapor for 4 hours to calculated concentrations of 0.26 mg/L, the exposed animals showed an increased activity immediately at start of exposure. Within 30 minutes all rats began to settle down and relax. There were no observable signs of toxicity during and after the 4 hour exposure, indicative for a lack of irritating properties by saturated vapor.
Justification for classification or non-classification
EC GHS Category 2 Skin irritation response. Well defined to moderate erythema and slight ischemia in all six test subjects. Reactions judged reversible.
EC GHS Not classified as an eye irritant. The calculated mean scores following grading at 24, 48 and 72 hours did not meet or exceed the criteria for classification.
