Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The test item is considered not irritant.
After the treatment, the relative absorbance values were increased to 102.7%. This value is well above the threshold for irritation (50%).
Executive summary:

The test item is considered not irritant.

After the treatment, the relative absorbance values were increased to 102.7%. This value is well above the threshold for irritation (50%).

The optical density of the negative control was well within the required acceptability criterion of 1.0 < mean OD < 2.5. The positive control induced a decrease in the relative absorbance as compared to the negative control to 8.1 % (required:<20%) for thus ensuring the validity of the test system. Variation within replicates was within the accepted range for negative control, positive control and test item.

For these reasons, the result of the test is considered valid.
