shaved
Vehicle:
other: test material moistened with 0.5% (w/v) carboxymethylcellulose in 0.1% (w/v) aqueous polysorbate 80
Controls:
no
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount applied: 0.5 g moistened with 0.5 % (w/v) carboxymethylcellulose in 0.1% (w/v) aqueous polysorbate 80 to allow good skin contact.
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hours
Observation period:
3 days post administration
Number of animals:
3 males, 3 females (6 animals in total)
Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: On the day prior to application, an area approximately 10 cm wide from one flank to the other, of each animal, was shaved with an electric clipper. The test material was moistened with 0.5 % (w/v) carboxymethylcellulose in 0.1% (w/v) aqueous polysorbate 80 and applied to the test site by means of a gauze patch. A control patch, moistened with 0.5 % (w/v) carboxymethylcellulose in 0.1% (w/v) aqueous polysorbate 80, was applied to the other flank.
- Type of wrap if used: The treated area was covered with a gauze patch which was loosely covered with aluminium foil and held in place with adhesive tape.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing: At the end of the exposure period, the dressing was and the application site was cleansed with lukewarm water.
- Time after start of exposure: approximately 4 hours

SCORING SYSTEM:
The Draize scale (Draize 1959), was used to assess the degree of erythema and oedema at the application sites approximately 1 hour and 1, 2 and 3 days after the removal of the dressings. Any other clinical signs were also noted. Mortality was checked daily and bodyweigths were measured and recorded immediately before dose administration and at the 72 hour examination.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the study, the test material did not elicit any reaction in any of the animals during the course of the study that meant the test material required classification as a skin irritant. The study is considered to be reliable, relevant and adequate for risk assessment and classification and labelling purposes.
Executive summary:

The skin irritation potential of the test material was determined in accordance with standardised guidelines OECD 404, EU Method B.4 and EPA OPP 81 -5. Six rabbits (3 male and 3 female) received a single four hour application of 0.5 g of the test material and were assessed for the following 3 days for any signs of skin irritation. Very slight erythema was observed in two male and two female animals 1 hour after patch removal and was still seen in one male and two females at the 24 hour observation. All skin reactions were fully reversible within 48 hours. There were no signs of ill-health in any animal during the study and bodyweights were not affected by treatment.

Under the conditions of the study, the test material was considered to be not-irritating to the skin in the albino rabbit. The test material does not require classification for skin irritation in line with Regulation No. 1272/2008.
