Basis:
other: not specified
Time point:
other: not specified
Score:
>= 1.75
Max. score:
1.75
Reversibility:
not specified
Remarks on result:
probability of weak irritation
Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (irritant) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
the test report concludes only slight skin irritation. However, since no detailed description of the observations is available ethylamine-boron trifluoride is precautionary classified as skin irritant irritant
Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
adverse effect observed (irritating)
