Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Test substance is determined as not irritating to rabbit skin. The substance caused weak erythema in all animals at the 24-hour evaluation. All signs of irritation were fully reversible within the 72 h observation period in 5/6 animals. In one rabbit slight reddening (score 1) was still present at the last observation time, 72 hours after exposure. However, there is no question that this slight reddening would have been reversed within the maximum possible observation period of 21 days to meet the standards of OECD test guideline 404.
