Description of key information
The test substance caused slight transient edema and erythema after 24h occlusive application onto intact and damaged rabbit skin (Ciba-Geigy 1982) and does not meet the criteria for being classified as a skin irritant. Transient chemosis and conjunctivae findings were observed in rabbits using a procedure similar to OECD testing guideline 405 (Ciba-Geigy 1982).

Additional information
The key study for skin irritation (CIBA-GEIGY, 1982) was performed similar to OECD guideline 404, but with occlusive coverage and 24 h exposure to intact and abraded skin of six rabbits. Transient slight erythema was developed in 4 rabbits (Draize score = 0.33-1.33) and transient slight edema was developed in 2 rabbits (Draize score = 0.33). Edema and erythema healed within seven days after exposure.
All skin reactions subsided within 48 hours after exposure during an acute dermal study (CIBA-GEIGY, 1962).
The key study for eye irritation was performed similar to OECD guideline 405 (CIBA-GEIGY, 1982) using a procedure in which after treatment, eyes of three rabbits were flushed with 10 ml of physiological saline and eyes of 3 rabbits were kept unwashed. All animals were observed for 7 days instead of 14 days. In non-rinsed animals, transient chemosis and conjunctivae redness occurred in the first animal, the second animal was without findings and in the third animal, slight redness appeared 72 h after application and was observed at the 4 and 7 day reading. For animals with rinsed eyes, slight transient conjunctivae findings were observed in one animal. Similar results were observed in another study (CIBA-GEIGY, 1962) where the test article was prepared by grinding 100 mg of the test substance with 0.3 - 0.5 milliliters of PEG 300, and instilling the mixture into one eye of each of six rabbits and observed for 48 hours. Chemosis was reversible within 48 h, but conjunctivae redness was still observed at the 48h reading.
No experimental data is available regarding respiratory irritation. In the acute inhalation study in rats, no gross pathological changes in lung were observed (CIBA-GEIGY Limited, 1973)

Justification for classification or non-classification
Dangerous Substance Directive (67/548/EEC)
The available studies are considered reliable and suitable for classification purposes under 67/548/EEC. The transient effects on skin do not meet the criteria for classification as a skin irritant. The effects on eyes were mild and mostly transient within seven days. The findings do not meet the criteria as an eye irritant. As a result the substance is not considered to be classified for skin and eye irritation under Directive 67/548/EEC, as amended for the 28th time in Directive 2001/59/EC.
Classification, Labelling, and Packaging Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008
The available experimental test data are reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation 1272/2008.
The transient effects on skin do not meet the criteria for classification as a skin irritant. The effects on eyes were mild and mostly transient within seven days. The findings do not meet the criteria as an eye irritant. As a result the substance is not considered to be classified for skin and eye irritation under Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
