Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: Draize Test
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Primary Irritation to the skin is measured by a patch-test technique on the abraded and intact skin of the rabbits, clipped free of hair. The 6 rabbits are used in abraded and intact skin tests.
Single 24-hour application to two sites each on the intact skin of 6 rabbits. After 24 hours exposure, the patches are removed and the resulting reactions are evaluated on the basis of the designated values.
GLP compliance:
yes

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: irritating
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Alcohols, C12-14 is a skin irritant according to EU criteria based on a group 24+48+72 hour mean score for erythema of 2.
According to GHS criteria the test substance is mild irritant (class 3) with all individual 24+48=72 hour erythema scores between 1.7 - 2.3 (only 2/6 gave a reading of 2.3) following a 24 hour occluded application to rabbit skin.
Executive summary:

Alcohols, C12-14 is a skin irritant according to EU criteria based on a group 24+48+72 hour mean score for erythema of 2. According to GHS criteria the test substance is mild irritant (class 3) with all individual 24+48=72 hour erythema scores between 1.7 - 2.3 (only 2/6 gave a reading of 2.3) following a 24 hour occluded application to rabbit skin.
