Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified.
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: CLP (EC1272/2008)
Conclusions:
According to regulation EC 1272/2008, the substance 1,2,4-Triazole sodium salt can be classified among the substances which are non irritant for the skin.
Executive summary:

Three rabbits were exposed by dermal route (semiocclusive) to 1,2,4-Triazole sodium salt during 4 hours according to the OECD 404 guideline. A slight irritation reaction was observed on the three rabbits' skin. These phenomena were totally reversible in 5 days. Erythema and edema scores were estimated according to the criteria of Draize. For each score and each animal, the score were between 0 and 1. According to the Regulation EC 1272/2008, the substance 1,2,4-Triazole sodium salt can be classified among the substances which are non irritant for the skin.
