Animal 1 and 2, day 7: desquamation at the treated skin area
Animal 3, day 14: desquamation at the treated skin area

The observed desquamation is expected as a healing process of the occurred inflammation of the skin. At the end of the observation time this healing process was not finished in animal 3.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:




Classification: not irritating
Executive summary:

In a dermal irritation/corrosion study according to OECD TG 404 Desmodur VP.PU 60WF14 was applied under semiocclusive dressings for 4 hours to the shaved skin of 3 female rabbits. Skin irritation was assessed after 1, 24, 48, 72 hours and 7 and 14 days using the Draize scale. The mean irritation index for erythema was 2.1 of max. 4 (1.7 -2.7), the mean irritation index for edema was 0.9 of max. 4 (0.0 -1.3). Signs were fully reversible in all animals within two weeks. No relevant systemic intolerance reactions were observed.

According to classification criteria Desmodur VP.PU 60WF14 is an irritant to the skin.
