Description of key information

Nigrosin WLF is not irritating to the skin and not to the mucous membranes of the eyes

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Skin irritation / corrosion

2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: equivalent to OECD guideline study but no GLP: test substance was applied to the inner surface of the rabbit's ear instead to the rabbits's back
Qualifier:
according to guideline

Principles of method if other than guideline:
On the inner surface of one ear of each of 2 New Zealand White rabbits test substance was applied and fixed with a plaster for 24 hours. Afterwards the treatment area was washed with water and soap/plant oil and was observed for further 7 days . The opposite ear of each of the 2 rabbits served as control

Executive summary:

Instead of to the back of rabbits test substance was applied to the inner surface of one ear of each of

2 New Zealand White rabbits and fixed with a plaster for 24 hours. Afterwards the treatment area was washed with water and soap/plant oil and was observed for further 7 days . The opposite ear of each of the 2 rabbits served as control. No reaction of the skin was observed. Thus, Nigrosin WLF has to be evaluated as not irritating to the skin.

Additional information

SKIN IRRITATION

Instead of to the back of rabbits test substance was applied to the inner surface of one ear of each of 2 New Zealand White rabbits and fixed with a plaster for 24 hours. Afterwards the treatment area was washed with water and soap/plant oil and was observed for further 7 days . The opposite ear of each of the 2 rabbits served as control. No reaction of the skin was observed. Thus, Nigrosin WLF has to be evaluated as not irritating to the skin.

EYE IRRITATION

Application of 50 mg test substance instead of 100 mg into the conjunctival sac of one eye of each of 2 rabbits; the untreated other eye served as control Observation period was 7 days. No reaction of the eyes were observed. Therefore, Nigrosin WLF has to be evaluated as non-irritating to the mucous membranes.
