Additional information

Skin irritation

In a skin irritation test to rabbits a study was conducted with the test item according to OECD guideline 404. 3 rabbits were exposed for 4 hours to the test substance and observed for 72 hours and 14 days. The rabbits got an application of 0.5 cm3 occlusive. The mean erythema (24/48/72 h) of animal 1 and 2 was 2, of animal 3 1.3. The erythema effect was fully reversible within 14 days for animal 1, 10 days for animal 2 and 8 days for animal 3. The edema score (24/48/72 h) was 2.3 for animal 1 and 0.6 for animal 2 and 3. The edema effect was fully reversible within 14 days for animal 1 and for animal 3 within 8 days. The effect of animal 2 was not reversible. The test item showed irritating effects. According to the EU criteria a classification is not necessary because of negligible effects.

Eye irration

In an eye irritation test to white vienna rabbits a study was conducted with the test item according to OECD guideline 405. 3 rabbits were exposed to 0.1 cm3 unchanged test substance. The study was conducted with a single application to the conjunctival sac of the eyelid. The substance was washed out with a NaCL solution. The cornea and the iris score (24/48/72 h) showed a score of 0 for all animals. The conjunctivae score (24/48/72 h) was 0 for animal 1, 1 for animal 2 and and 1 for animal 3. The conjunctivae effect was fully reversible within 72 hours. The chemosis score (24/48/72 h) was 0 for animal 1, 0.33 for animal 2 and 3. The chemosis effect was fully reversibel within 48 hours. According to these results the test item showed no eye irritating effects. After 72 h of observation the test substance showed no irritating effects.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Classification, Labelling, and Packaging Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008:

The available experimental test data is reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008. As a result the substance is not considered to be classified under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, as amended for the sixth time in Regulation No 605/2014.
