Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Based on the results of a GLP study according to the OECD draft guideline 'In vitro Skin irritation: Reconstituted Human Epidermis (Rhe) Test Method' using the in vitro EpiDerm model, the test substance is considered as not irritating.
Executive summary:

Based on the results of a GLP study according to the OECD draft guideline 'In vitro Skin irritation: Reconstituted Human Epidermis (Rhe) Test Method' using the in vitro EpiDerm model, the test substance is considered as not irritating as it did not reduce cell viability and as all accpetance criteria were met.
