Description of key information
Platinum dioxide was not irritant in a limited (pre-GLP) study, involving 24-hr occluded application to the intact and abraded skin of 6 male rabbits (Campbell et al., 1975).
In a guideline study, to GLP, instillation of platinum dioxide (0.1 g) produced moderate irritation in three rabbits after a 72-hr observation period (Allen, 1994).
No relevant respiratory tract irritation data were identified.

- Executive summary:
In a pre-GLP study, the dermal irritancy of 14 materials, including platinum dioxide, was assessed in albino rabbits. Test materials, mixed with water, were applied to intact and abraded skin of 6 male albino rabbits as 24-hour occluded patches. Coverings were then removed and sites scored immediately and 48 hours later, using a scale from 0 (non-irritant) to 4 (corrosive).
Platinum dioxide failed to give any indication of irritation (score 0) on both intact and abraded skin (mean of reactions at 24 and 72 hours). No classification for skin irritancy is required according to EU CLP criteria (EC 1272/2008), based on the results of this study.

Conjunctivae: at 1 hour - moderate conjunctival irritation in 3/3 eyes (redness 2, chemosis 2, discharge 2); at 24 hours - minimal to moderate conjunctival irritation in 3/3 eyes (redness 2, chemosis 1-2, discharge 0-3); at 48 hours - minimal conjunctival irritation in 3/3 eyes (redness 1-2, chemosis 0-1, discharge 0); at 72 hours - minimal conjunctival irritation in 1/3 eyes (redness 1, chemosis 0, discharge 0); no other conjunctival effects.
Overall Irritation Score:
Highest overall irritation score 17.0, with group mean score at 72 hours >0; Kay and Callandra class 5, moderate irritant - Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Conclusions:
- In a guideline study, to GLP, instillation of platinum dioxide (0.1 g) produced moderate irritation in three rabbits after a 72-hr observation period. The substance would not be classified under EU CLP criteria.
- Executive summary:
In an OECD Test Guideline 405 study, conducted to GLP, the potential of platinum dioxide to cause eye irritation was assessed in rabbits. The test material (0.1 g) was instilled into the conjunctival sac of the right eye of each of three New Zealand White rabbits, without irrigation. Diffuse corneal opacity, iridial inflammation and moderate conjunctival irritation were observed during the 72-hr observation period; only conjunctival redness had not reversed during this period (though it had lessened in severity). The test material produced a maximum group mean score of 17.0 and was classified as a moderate irritant (Class 5 on a 1 to 8 scale) to the rabbit eye according to a modified Kay and Calandra classification system. However, no classification for eye irritation is required based on EU CLP criteria (EC 1272/2008).
Reference
3/3 animals affected.
Scores were reduced over time.
Effects were reversible.
Residual test material was found around the treated eye.
For Kay and Callandra classification, group mean scores (3 animals) for each timepoint:
1 hour - 17.0 (individual scores 17, 17, 17)
24 hours - 16.7 (individual scores 6, 24, 20)
48 hours - 7.3 (individual scores 2, 11, 9)
72 hours - 0.7 (individual scores 0, 2, 0)
7 days - 0 (1 animal)
Highest overall irritation score 17.0, with group mean score at 72 hours >0, placing the test material in class 5, moderate irritant.
For EC classification, mean scores (24, 48 and 72 hours) for individual animals:
Corneal opacity - 0.0, 0.7, 0.7
Iridial inflammation - 0.0, 0.3, 0.3
Conjunctival redness - 1.0, 1.7, 1.0
Conjunctival chemosis - 0.3, 1.0, 1.0
Test material does not meet the limits required by the EC regulation for hazard labelling.
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed (not irritating)
Respiratory irritation
Endpoint conclusion

The test material produced a maximum group mean score of 17.0 and was classified as a moderate irritant (Class 5 on a 1 to 8 scale) to the rabbit eye according to a modified Kay and Calandra classification system (Allen, 1994).
No respiratory tract irritation data were identified. A new study was not conducted as it is not a REACH Standard Information Requirement.
Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion endpoint:
US Guideline study, pre-GLP, and the only skin irritation study available.
Justification for selection of eye irritation endpoint:
OECD guideline study, and the only eye irritation study available.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the results of the available skin and eye irritation studies in rabbits, platinum dioxide does not require classification for skin or eye irritation according to EU CLP criteria (EC 1272/2008).
