Irritant / corrosive response data:
No irritation effect observed on all animals. The primary irritation index was 0 when applied to intact skin.
No destructions or irreversible alterations of the treated skin were observed. No corrosive effect was evident on the skin.
Other effects:
Coloration: in the area of application a clear visible brownish disocloration of the test skin was observed which could be related to effects of the test article.
Toxic symptoms / mortality: no acute symptoms were observed during the test period and no mortality occurred.
Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Based on the test results, the tested item is to be considered as non-irritant to the skin of rabbits.
Executive summary:

The primary irritation score was assessed following OECD 404.

The results show no irritation on rabbit skin therefore the tested item is to be considered as non-irritant to skin under Regulation EC 1272/2008 .

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed (not irritating)

Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (irritating to eyes) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The tested substance needs to be considered irritant for rabbits eyes under Regulation CE 1272/2008.
Executive summary:

The ocular reactions were determined followign OECD 405.

The tested substance is considered to be irritant for the rabbits eyes based on the results needs to be classified as H319, Causes serious eye irritation under Regulation 1272/2008.

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
adverse effect observed (irritating)

Respiratory irritation

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no study available

Additional information

Based on the results the tested substance could ne considered not irritant for the skin and irritant for eyes.


Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion endpoint:
The study was performed on a tested substance with a higher content of active ingredient.

Justification for selection of eye irritation endpoint:
The study was the most complete and assessed the effect on cornea, iris and conjunctiva.

Effect level: empty

Endpoint conclusion: Adverse effect observed

Justification for classification or non-classification

No classification for skin irritation/corrosion is warranted under Regulation EC n. 1272/2008

Classification for eye irritation/corrosion is warranted under Regulation EC n. 1272/2008: H319, Causes serious eye irritation
