- Remarks:
- Study performed according to US-FHSA guideline. Deviations from standard method: no data on test animals, 24 h exposure instead of 4h, occlusive dressing instead of semi-occlusive, observation at 24 and 72 h only (no 48h scoring), reversibility not assessed during a 14-day observation period. However, since only minimal responses persisted until the 72-h time point (maximum score = 1), the study results can be used for classification purpose (Ref: CLP Guidance). A repeat study is unlikely to show worse effects; therefore, this study was considered sufficiently robust to cover this endpoint.

- Executive summary:
In a dermal irritation study performed according to US-FHSA guideline, 0.5 g of undiluted test material was dermally applied on the intact or abraded side surface of 6 albino rabbits. Test sites were covered with an occlusive dressing for 24 h. Skin irritation was assessed and scored according to the Draize scale at 24 and 72 h after the removal of the patch.
Under the test conditions, the test material induced slight erythema and oedema. Although reversibility was not assessed, responses were minimal at the 72 -hour time points. According to the CLP Guidance, it is therefore possible to use this study for classification by calculating the mean values for erythema and oedema on the basis of 24 and 72 -h time points.
The individual scores for each animal within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hours) were 0.5 / 1 / 0.5 / 1 / 0 / 1 for erythema and 0.5 / 0.5 / 0 / 0.5 /0.5 / 0.5 for oedema).
Therefore, the test material is not classified as irritant to the skin according to the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for skin irritation endpoint.

- Under the test conditions, the test material induced mild to moderate irritation being reversible within 7 days. Therefore, the test material is not classified as irritant to the eyes.
- Executive summary:
In an eye irritation study performed similarly to OECD guideline No. 405, 0.1 g of undiluted test material was instilled into the right eye of 6 albino rabbits while the left eye remained untreated and served as control. The eyes were not rinsed after the instillation of test material. Animals were observed at 1, 24, 48 and 72 h after instillation of test material into eyes and then on Days 5 and 7. The reactions in the conjunctivae (redness, chemosis and discharge), the iris and the cornea (opacity and area involved) were scored according to the grading system outlined in the “Illustrated Guide for Grading Eye Irritation by Hazardous material”.
The calculated mean score for each animal within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 h) were 2 / 1.33 / 1.33 / 2 / 1.33 / 1.33 for redness, 2 / 1.33 / 2.33 / 2.33 / 1.33 / 1.67 for chemosis, 0/0/0/0/0/0 for iris lesions and for corneal opacity.
The observed conjunctival reactions were fully reversible within 7 days. Under the test conditions, the test material is not classified as irritating to the eyes according to the annex VI of the Regulation EC No. 1272/2008 (CLP).
This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for eye irritation endpoint.

Additional information
Skin irritation:
A key study was identified (Biosearch, 1979). This dermal irritation study was performed according to US-FHSA guideline. Deviations from standard OECD method are as follow: 24 h exposure instead of 4h, occlusive dressing instead of semi-occlusive dressing, observation at 24 and 72 h only (no 48h scoring), reversibility not assessed during a 14-day observation period. However, since only minimal responses persisted until the 72 -h time point (maximum score = 1), the study results can be used for classification purpose (Ref: CLP Guidance). A repeat study is unlikely to show worse effects; therefore this study was considered sufficiently robust to cover this endpoint.
Under the test conditions, the test material induced slight erythema and oedema.
The individual scores for each animal within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hours) were 0.5 / 1 / 0.5 / 1 / 0 / 1 for erythema and 0.5 / 0.5 / 0 / 0.5 /0.5 / 0.5 for oedema).
Therefore, the test material is not classified as irritant to the skin.
Eye irritation:
A key study was identified (Biosearch, 1979, rel.2). This eye irritation study was conducted similarly to OECD Guideline No. 405, with one deviation (6 animals tested instead of 3) that does not affect the reliability of the study.
The calculated mean score for each animal within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 h) were 2 / 1.33 / 1.33 / 2 / 1.33 / 1.33 for redness, 2 / 1.33 / 2.33 / 2.33 / 1.33 / 1.67 for chemosis, 0/0/0/0/0/0 for iris lesions and for corneal opacity.
The conjunctival reactions were fully reversible within 7 days.
Therefore, the test material is not classified as irritant to the eyes.
Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion endpoint:
The key study performed on the registered substance in rats was pre-guideline and pre-GLP, but was performed according to US-FHSA guideline. This study was considered sufficiently robust to cover this endpoint.
Justification for selection of eye irritation endpoint:
The key study performed on the registered substance in rats was pre-guideline and pre-GLP, but was performed similarly to OECD Guideline No. 405. This study was considered sufficiently robust to cover this endpoint.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Harmonized classification:
The substance has no harmonized classification according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
Self-classification:
Based on the available data no additional self-classification is proposed regarding skin irritation according to the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP).
Regarding eye irritation, no additional self-classification is proposed according to the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 since only 2 out of 6 animals showed a mean score of 2 for conjunctival erythema, and only 3 out of 6 showed a mean score of ≥ 2 for conjunctival oedema (chemosis).
No data was available regarding respiratory irritation, however the substance not being classified for skin and eye irritation, no classification is expected for respiratory irritation.
