Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- In an in vivo study in rabbits, undiluted Hydroxyethyl-2-nitro-p-toluidine did not cause any signs of skin irritation even if applied for 4 hours (patch test).
- Executive summary:
Hydroxyethyl-2-nitro-p-toluidine (0.5 g), moistened with aqua distilled (1 ml), was applied onto the back skin (area about 6 cm²) of 3 female White New Zealand rabbits and was kept in contact with the skin for 4 hours under semi-occlusive conditions. The treated area was covered with a cellulose patch that was fixed by a non-irritating tape and with a Fixomull dressing. Additionally, a plastic collar was fixed around the neck of the animals to avoid licking of the application site. The effects on the skin were evaluated and scored 1, 24, 48 and 72 h after application in accordance with the EEC guidelines. No systemic toxic effects were noted during the entire study period. No skin reactions at all were noted at any observation time point after application of the undiluted material to the rabbit skin.
