- Well-defined erythema to very slight erythema (72-hour observation);
- Moderate oedema, slight oedema (1-hour observation);
- Slight oedema (24 and 48-hour observations);
- Slight oedema, very slight oedema (72-hour observation).

Loss of skin elasticity (48 and 72-hour observation), crust formation (7 days after treatment): fully reversible within 14 days.

Any other information on results incl. tables

Well defined erythema was noted at all treated skin sites one hour after patch removal and at the 24 and 48-hour observations. Well-defined erythema was noted at one treated skin site with very slight erythema at two treated skin sites at the 72-hour observation.

Moderate oedema was noted at one treated skin site with slight oedema at two treated skin sites one hour after patch removal. Slight oedema was noted at all treated skin sites at the 24 and 48-hour observations. Slight oedema persisted at one treated skin site with very slight oedema at two treated skin sites at the 72-hour observation.

Loss of skin elasticity was noted at one treated skin site at the 48-hour observation and at all treated skin sites at the 72-hour observation. Crust formation was noted at one treated skin site with slight desquamation at two treated skin sites at the 7-day observation. Treated skin sites appeared normal at the 14-day observation.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: EU-GHS
Conclusions:
According to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, the test material is not classified as skin irritant or corrosive. Mean values for erythema/eschar or for oedema from gradings at 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal amount up to 2 (under the cut-off value of 2.3).
Executive summary:

An OECD Guideline 404 study was performed to assess the irritancy potential of phosphoric acid, mono- and di-(C8 -C10) ester, compds. with C12 -14 amine to the skin of the New Zealand White rabbit in compliance with GLP. A single 4-hour, semi-occluded application of 0.5 mL of the test material to the intact skin of three rabbits (2 males / 1 female) produced well-defined erythema and slight to moderate oedema. Observations were performed 1 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, 7 d and 14 d after application. Loss of skin elasticity, crust formation and slight desquamation were also noted. Treated skin sites appeared normal at the 14-day observation. The test material produced a primary irritation index of 3.3 and was classified as a moderate irritant to rabbit skin according to the Draize classification scheme. No corrosive effects were noted.

The test material did not meet the criteria for classification as irritant or corrosive according to EU labelling regulations. No symbol and risk phrase are required.
