Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- A study was performed to examine skin irritating effects of the test item ccording to OECD TG 404 in rabbits. In the study three rabbits per sex were
exposed occlusively for 3 minutes and 1.5 hours. The reactions were considered to be indicative of corrosion. The test material also produced a
modified primary irritation index of 8.0 (based on erythema values at the 24-hour observation only).
Air Products - Executive summary:
A study was performed to assess the irritancy potential of the test material to the skin of the New Zealand White rabbit. The method used followed that described in the DECO Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals ( 1981) No. 404 "Acute Derma 1 Irritation/Corrosion" referenced as Method B4 in Commission Directive 84/449/EEC {which constitutes Annex V of
Council Directive 67/548/EEC).
A single 1.5 hour, semi-occluded application of the test material to the intact skin of three rabbits produced severe dermal necrosis,
haemorrhage of the dermal capillaries and loss of skin elasticity and flexibility. These reactions also extended beyond the treatment site.
A single 3-minute, semi-occluded application of the test material to an additional group of three rabbits produced dermal necrosis, severe haemorrhage of the dermal capillaries and the formation of an undulating, hardened dark brown/black coloured scab. Other adverse dermal reactions noted were moderate to well-defined erythema surrounding the treatment site, slight to serve oedema and oedema dropping ventrally below the treatment site. The reactions also extended beyond the treatment site.
These reactions were considered to be indicative of corrosion.
