Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this test the test substance is considered to be "not irritant" to rabbit skin.
Executive summary:

The acute dermal irritating potential of the test item was investigated in three New Zealand White rabbits. 0.5 mL of the undiluted test substance was applied to the shaved skin and covered semi occlusive for a 4 hour exposure. Observation periods were approximately 1h, 24 h, 48 h and 72h after removing of the patch. The overall irritation score was determined to be 0.11. Based on the results of the test the test substance has not to be classified.
