- Details on study design:
- TEST SITE:
Approximately 24 hours before treatment, animals were prepared for testing by close-clipping the skin of the mid-dorsal area of the trunk, between the scapulae and the pelvis, using a small animal clipper equipped with a #40 (surgical) head.
TREATMENT
Two sites, each 2.5 cm square, were chosen on opposite sides of the vertebral column. The test site on the left side of the animal remained intact; the test site on the right was further prepared by abrading with a sterile 22 gauge hypodermic needle. The abrasions were longitudinal epidermal incisions, sufficiently deep to penetrate the stratum corneum, but not so deep as to destroy the integrity of the derma, i.e., to cause bleeding. A single application of the test substance was made to each test site. The test substance was then covered with a 5 cm2 surgical gauze pad, and the latter held in place with adhesive tape. After both sites were treated, the entire trunk of each animal was encased in an impermeable occlusive wrapping fixed in place with adhesive tape.
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
Twentyfour hours after the application, the wrapping and test substance was removed and the remaining test substance was gently wiped from the skin.
OBSERVATIONS
- Irritation: The skin reactions were assessed at 24 and 72 hours after the removal of the dressings and test substance. The irritation scores and a description of all other (local) effects were recorded.
SCORING SYSTEM:
The irritation was assessed according to the Draize skin scoring table. Following the 72 hour reading, the mean scores for 24 and 72 hour gradings were averaged to determine the primary skin irritation index. A score of 5.0 or more indicates a primary dermal irritant.

- Irritant / corrosive response data:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: not skin irritating
- Remarks:
- According to CLP 1272/2008 and its amendments
- Conclusions:
- In a skin irritation study with rabbits, performed equivalent to OECD 404 (1981) guideline and GLP principles. The exposure time was 24 hours. The erythema scores decreased from score 1 to score 0.5 within 72 hours of observation. The observed edema effects were fully reversible 72 hours after treatment. Despite the observation period not being extended to see the full reversibility of the effects, the erythema are very slight and therefore not considered for classification and labelling.
- Executive summary:
The substance was tested in a skin irritation test in 6 rabbits equivalent with OECD TG 404 (1981) test guideline. The volume added to 5 cm2 was 0.5 ml and the exposure was 24 hours instead of 4hours. The skin irritation was scored at 24 and 72 hours only. In non-abraded skin, the average scores for edema and oedema decreased from 1 and 0.5, respectively at 24 hours to average 0.5 and 0, respectively at 72h indicating recovery. In view of the low scores at the 72h observation period no classification and labelling is needed&L is needed. Also because at the end of the 72 observation period 2/6 animals had no effects and 4/6 animals presented <= 1 erythema. In absence of alopecia, hyperkeratosis, hyperplasia and scaling the effects the scores are considered too minimal for C&L, despite full recovery after 14 days was not measured.
