Irritant / corrosive response data:
- there were no edema or erythema detectable (score 0) at any time point in any animal
Other effects:
During the whole testing period the skin at the dose site remained purple coloured. One animal showed systemic effects (diarrhea and soiled anogenital region) at the 24 and 48 hour reading which disapeared until the 72 hour reading.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: CLP regulation
Conclusions:
According to the classification criteria of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 the test material 2, 9-Dichloroquinacridone is not irritating to skin under these test conditions. The test material contains relevant amounts of the submission substance. Therefore the test results are considered adequate to fulfil the endpoint requirements.
Executive summary:

Test material 2, 9-Dichloroquinacridone was subject to an acute dermal irritation/corrosion test in 6 New Zealand white rabbits similar to OECD TG 404. Beside the purple staining of the dose site, no relevant skin reactions occurred during the 4 h exposure to 500 mg of test item (pasted with distilled water) as well as during the following 72 h observation period. Therefore, the test item has not to be classified for skin irritation according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
