Description of key information

Skin irritation
The test substance was applied on the skin of 6 rabbits for 24 hours (PSL 1980). Observations at 24 and 72 hr indicated that the test substance is irritating to the skin.
Eye irritation
The test substance was applied in the eye of 6 rabbits (PSL 1980). Based on observations at 24, 48 and 72 h, as well as 6 and 7 days after application, it is concluded that the test substance is irritating to the eyes and needs to be classified as a category 2 eye irritant (H319).

Interpretation of results:
irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The test substance is irritating to the eyes
Executive summary:

The test substance was applied in the eye of 6 rabbits. Based on observations at 24, 48 and 72 h, as well as 6 and 7 days after application, it is concluded that the test substance is irritating to the eyes and needs to be classified as a catergory 2 eye irritant (H319).

Respiratory irritation

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no study available

Additional information

The available studies contain sufficient information to be used for risk assessment and classification and labelling.

All tests were performed on a 50% formulation. It is not expected that the diluent used has contributed to the effects if any.


Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion endpoint:
Study was conducted prior to GLP regulations but used methods generally consistent with accepted procedures.

Justification for selection of eye irritation endpoint:
Study was conducted prior to GLP regulations but used a method similar to OECD 405

Effects on skin irritation/corrosion: irritating

Effects on eye irritation: irritating

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the outcome of the studies, the test substance needs to be classified as irritating to the skin (CLP category 2, H315: Causes skin irritation) and irritating to eyes (CLP category 2 H319: Causes serious eye irritation).
