Test system

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:
clipped
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Amount / concentration applied:
A dose of 0.5 mL of the test item was applied to the test site.
Duration of treatment / exposure:

Results and discussion

In vivo

Results
Irritation parameter:
other: open wound, necrosis
Basis:
animal #1
Time point:
other: 4 h
Remarks on result:
other: Open wound, skin etched off, necrosis at the edges of the application side
Irritant / corrosive response data:
After patch removal severe clinical findings have been observed in the
animal of the initial test. The application side showed, that the skin was
etched off and that there was only an open wound left. At the edges of the
open wound the skin was already necrotic.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 1B (corrosive) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Triethylchlorsilan causes severe corrosive effects.
Executive summary:

Considering the reported data of this irritation study it can be stated that the test item Triethylchlorsilan causes severe corrosive effects. Due to severe local clinical signs at the application side of the initial animal it is non-ambiguous, that the test item does have severe irritating characteristics. Therefore no further animal was administered.
