- Type of wrap if used: The dose patch was secured with non-irritating tape and the rabbit was gently
held in place.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): the test site was gently washed with gauze saturated with distilled water f
ollowing patch removal.
- Time after start of exposure: 3 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours

OBSERVATION TIME POINTS
(indicate if minutes, hours or days) Exposure Site 1 of the initial animal was scored for dermal irritation
immediately post-exposure and at one hour post-exposure. Sites 2 (one-hour exposure) and 3 (fourhour
exposure) were scored for dermal irritation at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours hours after patch removal.

SCORING SYSTEM:
- Method of calculation: Erythema and edema were scored according to the numerical Draize scale.
Irritation parameter:
erythema score
Basis:
mean
Time point:
24/48/72 h
Score:
0
Max. score:
0
Irritation parameter:
edema score
Basis:
mean
Time point:
24/48/72 h
Score:
0
Max. score:
0
Other effects:
Systemic Observations: No abnormal physical signs were observed.
Body Weights: All three animals' weights remained the same by study termination.
Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The substance is not irritating to rabbit skin.
Executive summary:

The skin irritation study is performed using rabbits, according to OECD Guideline 404 under GLP. The
substance is not irritating to rabbit skin.

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed (not irritating)

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

Skin irritation / corrosion:
In vivo skin irritation, key study, OECD 404:
Mean score for erythema at 24, 48, 72 h for 3 tested animal: 0, 0, 0
Mean score for edema at 24, 48, 72 h for 3 tested animal: 0, 0, 0
According to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, table 3.2.2, this substance should not be classified for
this endpoint.


Eye irritation:
In vivo eye irritation, key study, OECD 405:
Mean scores for cornea opacity, iris, conjunctivae and chemosis at 24, 48, and 72h:
cornea opacity: 0, 0, 0;
iris: 0.33, 0.33, 0;
conjunctivae: 1, 1, 0.33;
chemosis: 1, 0.33, 0.


According to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, table 3.3.2, this substance should not be classified for
