Irritant / corrosive response data:
The dermal application of the test substance resulted in very slight erythema and edema formation (score 1) in one animal at the 1 and 24 h reading time point. The effect reversed within 48 h. No effect on another animal was observed at any time point.
Other effects:
No mortality occurred during the study period. No clinical signs or adverse effects on body weight were observed at any time point.
