Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information

key information on eye irritation:

One in vivo study (no guideline and no information about GLP): 0.1 ml of a 2 % (corresponds to 2 mg test substance) test solution in water was tested in 10 female guinea pig. Result: practically nonirritating (0.6 of max 110 overall irritation score)

Two in vitro studies:

OECD 438 (according to guideline and in comliance with GLP): 30 mg test substance were applied on isalated chicken eyes for 10 s with a post treatment incubation 0, 30, 75, 120, 180 and 240 minutes. Negative and positive controls were valid. Result: Irritating to eyes (irritation index 73 of max. 200).

OECD 492 (according to guideline and in comliance with GLP) 50 mg test substance were applied on human-derived epidermal keratinocytes for 6 hours with a post teatment incubation of 18 hours. Negative and positive controls were valid. Result: Irritating to eyes (cell viability was reduced to 6.5 % compared to negativ control).

key information on skin irritation / corrosion:

One in vivo study (no guideline and no information about GLP)

Two in vitro studies:

OECD 439 (according to guideline and in comliance with GLP)

OECD 431 (according to guideline and in comliance with GLP)

All three studies revealed no irritation and/or corrosion potential of the test substance.

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

Justification for classification as eye irritating:

The classification is based on two valid in vitro studies (according to guideline and in comliance with GLP), which indicated a eye irritating potential.

The in vivo study followed no guideline and there are no information about the comliance with GLP. The administered dose of 0.1 ml of a 2 % aqueous solution of the test substance corresponds to 2 mg test substance, which is very low compared to the recommended dose of up to 100 mg for OECD 405. The administered doses in the in vitro tests were significant higher and in accordance with the respective guideline.
