Details on study design:
The day befoe dose the animals were placed in a restraining stocks and the dorsal surface of the trunk was clipped free of fur using an Oster Model A2 clipper with Angra blade.
On the day of doseing the animals were placed in a restraining stocks. 0.5ml aliqout of the test item was placed evenly over a 2.5 cm square of surgical lint. the lint was placed over the dorsal skin of the animal, the test item was held in contact with the skin under a semi-occlusive patch for 4 hour period. After which the patches were removed and skin reaction assesd after 1, 24, 48, and 72 hours and 7 and 14 days.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item was concluded to be non irritant to the skin.
Executive summary:

The skin irritation potential of the test substance was evaluated using a method similar to OECD 404 and in accordance with GLP. In the test, 0.5 ml of the test item was applied to the clipped dorsal skin of 4 albino rabbits under semi-occlusion for a 4 hour period. Mild inflammation on day 7 was observed, which disappeared by day 14. From the result of the study, it was concluded that the test item would not require classification as a skin irritant.
