Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (irritant) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
In the present test 6 New Zealand rabbits were dermally exposed to 0.5 g of the test item for 24h under occclusive conditions. All animals showed moderate erythema up to 72h after patch removal. Edema formation was observed in all six animals but was fully reversible within 72h. Based on these results the substance needs to be classified as Category 2 - irritant according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP) and the Globally Harmonized System for Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS).
Executive summary:

In a primary dermal irritation study according to HLD Versuchsplan P 2/152, Revision 5, regulations of US Food and Drug Administration (Appraisal of the Safety of Chemicals in Food, Drugs and Cosmetics, 1959), den FDA Good Laboratory Practice Regulations) and Richtlinien für Hautverträglichkeitsprüfungen am Kaninchen (Januar 1981) der US lnteragency Regulatory Liaison Group (IRLG),6 young adult New Zealand rabbitswere dermally exposed to 0.5 gofhydrogenated tallow/nortallow based IQACfor24hours under occlusive conditions.  Animals then were observed for72 hours.  Irritation was scored by the method of(Draize, JH, (1959)).

 All animals showed moderate erythema up to 72h after patch removal. Edema formation was observed in all six animals but was fully reversible within 72h.In this study,hydrogenated tallow/nortallow based IQAC isa dermal irritant. Based on these results the substance needs to be classified as Category 2 - irritant according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP) and the Globally Harmonized System for Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS).
