- Housing: individually
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): ad libitum
- Water (e.g. ad libitum):ad libitum
- Acclimation period: yes but no details

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 19 °C
- Humidity (%): 30-70%

- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12

Test system

Type of coverage:

semiocclusive

Preparation of test site:

clipped

Vehicle:

water

Controls:

not required

Amount / concentration applied:

0.5 g of the test substance was applied under a 25 mm x 25 mm gauze pad moistened with 0.5 ml distilled water to one intact skin site of each animal

Duration of treatment / exposure:

4 hours

Observation period:

4 days

Number of animals:

3

Details on study design:

The test substance was administered following grinding using a pestle and mortar.
Approximately 24 hours prior to application of the test substance, hair was removed with electric clippers from the dorso-lumbar region of each rabbit exposing an area of skin approximately 100 mm x 100 mm.
Each treatment site was covered with "Elastoplast" elastic adhesive dressing for four hours. The animals were not restrained during the exposure period and were returned to their cages immediately after treatment. At the end of the exposure period, the semi-occlusive dressing and gauze pad were removed and the treatment site was washed with warm water ( 30°C to 40°C) to remove any residual test substance. The treated area was blotted dry with absorbent paper.
All animals were observed daily for signs of ill health or toxicity.
Dermal examination of the treated skin was made on Day 1 (60 minutes after removal of the dressings) and on Days 2, 3, and 4 (equivalent to 24, 48 and 72 hours after exposure).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Remarks:

: Not skin irritating

Conclusions:

A single semi-occlusive application of the test substance to intact rabbit skin for 4h elicited no dermal irritation.

Executive summary:

A study was performed to assess the skin irritation potential of the test item to the rabbit. Three rabbits were each administered a single dermal dose of 0.5 g of the test substance and observed for four days. No dermal reactions were observed following a single semi-occlusive dermal application of the test substance to intact rabbit skin for four hours. Based on these results, the test substance is considered as not skin irritating.
