Test system

Type of coverage:
occlusive
Preparation of test site:
other: clipped free of hair
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
no
Amount / concentration applied:
0.5 g of the test substance
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hours
Observation period:
30-60 minutes, 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal
Number of animals:
3 (male rabbits)
Details on study design:
After the acclimatization period the backs of three rabbits were clipped free of hair. From each animal one place was used for the application of the
test material. A quantity of 0.5 g of the test material was introduced under one 6 square em patch of aluminium foil.
After application the animals were immobilized in an animal holder for four hours with the patches secured in place by adhesive tape. Food and water were available ad libitum.
After four hours of exposure the patches were removed, the skin was wiped and the resulting skin reactions were evaluated at 30-60 minutes and 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal.

No erythema nor edema was observed at any of the readings and therefore the substance is considered not to be irritant to the shaven non-abraded skin of the rabbits.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Polyol IXOL B251 is not irritating to skin.
Executive summary:

The primary skin irritation potential of Polyol IXOL B251 to the rabbit skin was investigated in a study performed according to OECD guideline 404 and under GLP (Duphar B.V., 1985b). 0.5 g of the test substance was applied on the shaven non-abraded skin of three rabbits and occluded under patches for four hours. The patches were removed, and readings of the reactions for erythema and edema were made at 30-60 minutes and at 24, 48 and 72 hours after patchremoval.There was neither erythema nor edema at any of the readings and therefore the test substance is considered not to be irritating to the shaven non-abraded rabbit skin.
