Endpoint:
skin irritation: in vivo
Type of information:
other: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: read across substance, no information about test substance or enviromental conditions of animals, some information about animals (e.g. age, source) are missing
Justification for type of information:
Category approach as part of CSR.
