Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: Read-across approach
- Conclusions:
- On the basis of the read-across results, interpreted according to OECD 439 and SKINETHIC SOP (January 2009), because the test product "PREDNISOLONE" is considered NOT IRRITANT for the skin, also the structurally related compound 16a,17,21-trihydroxypregna-1,4,9(11)-triene-3,20-dione 21-acetate should be considered as NOT IRRITANT.
