Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Under the test conditions, Dermalcare MAP L-213/K was irritating to the rabbit skin. The mean erythema score (2.0) obtained in the one tested rabbit (screening test) does not allow to classify Dermalcare MAP L-213/K as a skin irritant according to the crieria of the Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP) but allows to classify as Xi, R38 according to the criteria of the Directive 67/548/EEC.
Executive summary:

In a dermal irritation screening study performed similarly to the OECD guideline No. 404, one New Zealand White rabbit was dermally exposed to 0.5 mL of undiluted Dermalcare MAP L-213/K on a part of the trunk (6.25 cm²).Test site was covered with a semi-occlusive dressing for 4hours. The animal was then observed for 7 days. Skin irritation was assessed and scored according to the Draize scale at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hrs after the removal of the patch.

The mean score calculated within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hrs) was 2.0 for erythema and 0.0 for edema.

 

Under the test conditions, Dermalcare MAP L-213/K was irritating to the rabbit skin. The mean erythema score (2.0) obtained in the only one tested rabbit (screening test) do not permit to classify Dermalcare MAP L-213/K as a skin irritant according to the criteria of the Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP) but permit to classify as Xi, R38 according to the criteria of the Directive 67/548/EEC.
