- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5 mL
Duration of treatment / exposure:

Observation period:
7 days
Number of animals:
3 males
Details on study design:
STUDY DESIGN
The study was performed in a stepwise manner and was started by treatment of a single rabbit (sentinel). The two other animals were treated in a similar manner one week later, after considering the degree of skin irritation observed in the first animal.

TEST SITE
Approximately 24 hours before treatment, the dorsal fur was clipped with electric clippers, exposing an area of approximately 150 square centimeters (10x15 cm). To facilitate scoring, treated skin areas were re-clipped at least 3 hours before the observations.

TREATMENT
The test substance was applied to the skin of one flank, using a metalline patch of 2x3 cm. The patch was mounted on Micropore tape, which was wrapped around the abdomen and secured with Coban elastic bandage.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
Four hours after the application, the dressing was removed and the skin cleaned of residual test substance using tap water and watery ethanol (50% v/v).

OBSERVATIONS
- Mortality/Viability: Twice daily
- Toxicity: At least once daily
- Body Weight: Day of treatment (prior to application) and after the final observation
- Necropsy: Not performed
- Irritation: The skin reactions were assessed at approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours and/or 7 days after the removal of the dressings and test substance. The irritation scores and a description of all other (local) effects were recorded.

SCORING SYSTEM
The irritation was assessed according to the numerical scoring system according to OECD 404.

Irritant / corrosive response data:
Four hours exposure to 0.5 mL of GABEPRO® GPM-800 resulted in very slight erythema and very slight oedema in the treated skin areas of the three rabbits. The skin irritation resolved within 7 days after exposure in the first animal, within 72 hours in the second animal and within 48 hours in the remaining animal. There was no evidence of a corrosive effect on the skin.
Other effects:
- Remnants of the test substance were present on the skin of all animals on Days 1 and 2
- No signs of systemic toxicity were observed in the animals during the test period and no mortality occurred

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Based on the results obtained in a skin irritation study with rabbits, performed according to OECD/EC test guidelines, GABEPRO® GPM-800 does not need to be classified for skin irritation/corrosion in accordance with the CLP Regulation.
Executive summary:

In an in vivo skin irritation study in rabbits, conducted in accordance with OECD 404 (2002) and according to GLP principles, 3 male rabbits were semi-occlusively exposed for 4 hours to 0.5 mL of GABEPRO® GPM-800. Exposure resulted in very slight erythema and very slight oedema in the treated skin areas of the three rabbits. The skin irritation resolved within 7 days after exposure in the first animal, within 72 hours in the second animal and within 48 hours in the remaining animal. No signs of toxicity nor mortalities were observed. Based on the result of this study, GABEPRO® GPM-800 does not need to be classified for skin irritation/corrosion in accordance with the CLP Regulation.
