Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Since no animals were observed an average of erythema and eschar or edema more than 2, the sample is classified as not irritant for skin.
Executive summary:

The substance has been tested for skin irritation with 3 New Zealand white rabbits with an occlusive method. After 14 days of observation no rabbit shows signs of erythema or edema. The substance is classified as non-irritating to the skin.
