Test system

Type of coverage:
occlusive
Preparation of test site:
shaved
Vehicle:
water
Controls:
other: The shaved area next to the exposure area was employed such as control.
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5 g per animal

VEHICLE
- test substance moistened with a small amount of water
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hours
Observation period:
7 days
Number of animals:
2 male, 1 female rabbit
Details on study design:
The test substance moistened with a small amount of water was dermally applied in a songle dose of 0.5 g / per animal onto a shaved area of 3 x 5 cm2 of the dorso-lumbar region of three albino rabbits. The region treated was protected with an occlusive patch. After the end of the exposure period of 4 hours the bandage was removed and residual test substance was removed by gently washing with water.
In the following observation period of 7 days mortality, toxicological symptoms, behaviour, body weight and skin reactions were reported. The shaved area next to the exposure area was employed such as control.

Irritant / corrosive response data:
The test substance produced skin lesions in the form of erythemata and oedemata. The maximum grade of these lesions was 2. All effects observed turned out to be reversible.
Other effects:
Visible toxicological signs could not be observed; none of the animals died during the observation period.

Skin reaction control:

The shaved area close to the exposure area was employed such as control. The control area did not show any pathological skin reaction. According to table 1 of OECD-Guideline 404 at all times of evaluation the value was classified as 0.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: EU-GHS
Conclusions:
The study was performed according to the OECD Guideline 404 with no deviations and according to the good laboratory practice principles, it is considered to be of the highest quality (reliability Klimisch 1). The criteria of validity of the test system are fulfilled. The mean grades of skin reactions at 24, 48 and 72 h after patch removal were lower than the value classified as irritant by the European regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, amending regulation EC no. 1907/2006 (REACh). When applied to the skin, the test article may therefore be considered to be non-irritant. The test material did produce skin lesions in the form of erythemata and oedemata on the intact skin of rabbits. None of these lesions had a grade above 2 and all lesions were fully reversible latest within 6 days. The test substance is considered to be not irritating to the skin.
Executive summary:

The skin irritation potential of the test substance was investigated in rabbits (Dr. B. Grunert, 1994, according to TG OECD 404). The test substance was applied to the skin of rabbit (skin shaved, substance moistened with water, 0.5 g substance / animal applied) for 4 hours under occlusive conditions. The study was performed according to the OECD Guideline 404 with no deviations and according to the good laboratory practice principles, it is considered to be of the highest quality (reliability Klimisch 1). The criteria of validity of the test system are fulfilled. After this period the skin was evaluated 60 min and daily for 7 days after patch removal. The test substance produced skin lesions in the form of erythemata and oedemata. The mean grades of skin reactions were lower than the value classified as irritant by the European regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, amending regulation EC no. 1907/2006 (REACh). When applied to the skin, the test article may therefore be considered to be non- irritant.
