Irritant / corrosive response data:
Erythema: due to colouring of the skin by testing material no scoring could be conducted.
Edema: four animals (#1 to #4) showed very slight edemae on intact skin within 24 hours after application start, which were fully reversible within 48 hours. Slight and very slight edemae were observed within 24 hours after application start on scarified skin in animals #2 and #4, respectively, which were fully reversible within 48 hours. No effects were observed in any other animal during the observation period.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
5,8-Dichlorchinizarin was not irritating in the in vivo skin irritation test under the experimental conditions described in this report.
Executive summary:

In a primary dermal irritation study performed in accordance with the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 16, Section 1500.41, adult albino rabbits (strain New Zealand White) were dermally exposed to 500 mg of 5,8-Dichlorchinizarin (vehicle: oil) under occlusive conditions for 24 hours to 2 x 6.25 cm² body surface area.  Animals were then observed for 8 days.

Erythema was not scored due to colouring of skin by testing material. Edema scores of 1 were observed in 4 out of 6 animals (#1-#4) within 24 hours after application start in which animal #2 and #4 also showed effects on scarified skin with a score of 2 and 1, respectively. The 24h/72h average edema score was 0.5 in four animals and 0 in the other two animals. However, both irritation scores lead to classification as non-irritating.

In this study, 5,8-Dichlorchinizarin is not a dermal irritant.
