Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Remarks:
Minor deviations with no effects on the study: - According to the guideline, for the initial test in one animal, the test site is also examined immediately after the patch has been removed. In this study report there was no statement indicating if this was done. - According to the guideline a rationale for in vivo testing should be stated in the study report. This is missing in this study report. - According to the guideline, the individual animal weights at the start and at the conclusion of the test should be stated. In this study report only a mean body weight with standard deviation was stated, which only indicated the mean body weight at the beginning of the study.. - According to the guideline, in the test report the volume of vehicle used should be stated. This was missing in this study report.

Details on study design:
TEST SITE
The day before treatment, both flanks of each animal were clipped using electric clippers. Doses of 500 mg of the test item in its original form were placed on a gauze pad moistened with purified water, which was then applied to an area of approximately 6 cm^2 of the anterior left flank (application for 3 minutes), the anterior right flank (application for 1 hour) or the posterior right flank (application for 4 hours) of the animals. The gauze pad was held in contact with the skin by means of an adhesive hypoallergenic aerated semi-occlusive dressing and a restraining bandage.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
After removal of the dressing, any residual test item was wiped off by means of a dry cotton pad.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
The eyes were not rinsed after administration of the test item.
SCORING SYSTEM: Draize scoring system
TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: Conjucntival reactions, iritis and corneal opacification were evaluated daily for each animal. For evaluation of corneal opacification (presence or absence, affected area), the eyes were examined under a UV lamp after instillation of one or two drops of 0.5 % sodium fluorescein solution ( a clear fluorscence is visible in the area of opacification). This evaluation was performed on day 2 and repeated thereafter whenever necessary.
No further information in details on study design was stated.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Skin irritation

The reference Pelcot (2007) is considered as the key study for skin irritation and will be used for classification.Cobalt(II) 4-oxopent-2-en-2-olatewas very slightly irritant when applied topically to rabbits. The classification criteria according to regulation (EC) 1272/2008 as irritant to skin are not met, hence no classification required.

 

Eye irritation

The reference Pelcot (2007) is considered as the key study for severe eye irritation and will be used for classification. The overall irritation results 1 and 24 hours after application for the animal are as follows:

- severe chemosis (maximal grade of 4)

- severe redness of the conjunctiva (maximal grade of 3)

- clear discharge were observed on days 1 and 2

- evaluation of iris and corneal lesions was masked by severe chemosis

- brownish area on the conjunctivae, similar to a burn, was noted on day 2

The classification criteria acc. to regulation (EC) 1272/2008 as irritating to eyes are met, since in the animal severe ocular reactions were not reversible (the animal was sacrificed for ethical reasons at 24 hours). Cobalt(II) 4-oxopent-2-en-2-olate will be classified eye damage category 1 (H318: Causes serious eye damage).
