- other: mild irritant
- Remarks:
- Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- Skin irritation tests performed by the method of Standard Draize test,75 mg of Stearic acid applied to the skin of human subjects for 3 days where the dosage of stearic acid was given intermittently, resulted in a mild irritation effect." The substance Stearic acid is thus considered "mildly irritating."
