Endpoint:
skin irritation: in vivo
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
supporting study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
Study performed in accordance with OECD guideline and in compliance with GLP guidelines. As the study is performed with a substance analogue, in accordance with REACH guidance the maximum reliability for read-across data is 2. Read-across is justified because of the similar chemical nature of the target substance compared to the analogues. The read-across rationale can be found in the analogue approach document attached in Section 13.
