Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (irritant) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The test material p-Anisaldehyde (CAS No: 123-11-5) was considered to be mildly irritating to the intact and abraded skin of rabbits.

Executive summary:

Skin irritation study of p-Anisaldehyde (CAS No: 123-11-5) was conducted on rabbits to determine the degree of skin irritancy.

 

Each rabbit received neatp-Anisaldehyde on intact and abraded skin for 24 hours under occlusive condition and later observed for skin lesions.

 

Since the treated rabbits showed mild signs of irritation, the chemicalp-Anisaldehyde (CAS No: 123-11-5)was considered to be mildly irritating to the intact and abraded skin of rabbits.
