- Executive summary:
An in vitro skin irritation study was performed according to the OECD Guideline 439 and in compliance with GLP, the undiluted test substance was applied to EpiSkin TM human epidermis skin constructs (triplicate tissues). The principle of the assay is based on the measurement of cytotoxicity in reconstructed human epidermal cultures following topical exposure to the test item. The constructs were treated with the neat test substance for 15 minutes. After rinsing of the test substance the constructs were incubated for 42 hours. The cell viability was determined by mitochondrial dehydrogenase activity, assessed by the reduction of MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5‑diphenyltetrazolium bromide) to a soluble, coloured, formazan product. The prediction model uses the percentage viability values (compared to negative control viability) to identify irritant and non-irritant substances.
This assay was valid with negative and positive controls showing results within the acceptable range.
It was concluded that the test substance with a mean tissue viability of 97.3 ± 10.7%, was predicted as non-irritant to the skin.
Under the test conditions, test item is not classified as a skin irritant according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and to the GHS.
This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for skin irritation endpoint.
Reference
Possible reduction of MTT by test substance: There was no change in the test substance/MTT solution or the water control/MTT solution after three hours incubation in the dark at 37±2 °C in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 in air. The test substance had not interacted with the MTT.
Check for colouring potential of test substance: The test substance/water solution and water control were colourless after the 15 minute shaking period. The test substance had not shown any potential for colouring water.

- Executive summary:
In an eye irritation study performed according to the OECD Guideline No. 405, and in compliance with GLP, 0.1 mL of undiluted test material was instilled into one eye of 4 female New Zealand White rabbits. The other eye remained untreated and served as control. The upper and lower eyelids were held together for about one second immediately after instillation. The eyes were examined and the changes were observed at 1, 24, 48 and 72 h after treatment and graded according to the Draize method.
1 h after test material instillation, two animals showed conjunctival vessels definitely injected and a swelling above normal. A diffuse, crimson red conjunctiva with individual vessels not easily discernible as well as a swelling above normal was observed in one animal. One animal showed an iris with markedly deepened folds, congestion swelling, moderate circumcorneal injection and existence of reaction to light, a diffuse, crimson red conjunctiva with individual vessels not easily discernible as well as a swelling above normal was observed. 24 h after test material instillation, three animals were observed some conjunctival vessels definitely injected. 48 h after test material instillation, one animal showed some conjunctival vessels definitely injected. None of the four animals showed any sign of eye irritation at 72 h.
The calculated mean score for each animal within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 h) were 0.33/0.0/0.67/0.33 for redness, 0/0/0/0 for chemosis, 0/0/0/0 for iris lesions and 0/0/0/0 for corneal opacity. The effects observed were all reversible within 72 hours.
Under the test conditions, the test material is not classified as irritating to the eyes according to the annex VI of the Regulation EC No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and to the GHS.
This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for eye irritation endpoint.

Additional information
Skin irritation:
Since no key study was identified on the registered substance, the testing and assessment strategy, as described in ECHA R.7a Endpoint specific guidance (July 2015), was used to evaluate the skin corrosion/irritation potential of the registered substance:

NO |
Predicted to be "Not Irritating or Corrosive to Skin" using Toxtree (v2.6.6). . The outcomes of OASIS TIMES v2.27.17 does not support the substance to be corrosive neither (the model predicted the substance to be Irritating to skin >> Ethers but not , with 87.5%of correct fragment). |
5b |

8 |
Does the substance demonstrate corrosive properties in (an) EU/OECD adopted in vitro test(s) for skin corrosion? |
NO |
Based on all available data (ATD, LLNA, QSARs), the substance is not considered as a skin corrosive => a skin corrosion assay was not required |
New in vitro test for irritation |
9 |
Does the substance demonstrate irritating or non-irritating properties in (an) EU/OECD adopted in vitro test(s) for skin irritation? |
YES |
=> an Episkin test for irritation was initiated. The conclusion of this Episkin test is sufficient to conclude on C&L (viability = 97,3% <=> Not a skin irritant) |
New in vivo test for corrosion/irritation |
10 |
To be used only as a last resort |
NO |
In vivo testing should not be conducted in this case since the substance falls under the scope of the specific in vitro tests performed, and there are no substance-specific limitations on use of those tests. An adaptation according to Annex XI to the REACH Regulation is included in this dossier. |
The purpose of the newly performed in vitro test (HLS, 2015, Rel.1) was to evaluate the skin irritation potential of the test item using the EPISKIN reconstructed human epidermis model after a treatment period of 15 minutes followed by a post-exposure incubation period of 42 hours.
This test was performed in compliance with GLP. The quality criteria required for acceptance of results in the test were satisfied. The relative mean viability of the test item-treated tissues was 97.3 ± 10.7 %, after the 15‑minute exposure period. With a tissue viability > 50%, the registered substance was considered to be non-irritating to skin.
Eye irritation:
A key study was identified (FREY-TOX, 2000, rel.1). In this in vivo eye irritation study performed according to the OECD guideline No. 405, and in compliance with GLP, 0.1 mL of undiluted test material was instilled into one eye of 4 female New Zealand White rabbits. The other eye remained untreated and served as control. The upper and lower eyelids were held together for about one second immediately after instillation. The eyes were examined and the changes were observed at 1, 24, 48 and 72 h after treatment and graded according to the Draize method.
The calculated mean score for each animal within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 h) were 0.33/0.0/0.67/0.33 for redness, 0/0/0/0 for chemosis, 0/0/0/0 for iris lesions and 0/0/0/0 for corneal opacity. The effects observed were all reversible within 72 hours. The substance is therefore not classified for eye irritation.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Harmonized classification:
The substance has no harmonized classification according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
Self-classification:
Based on the available data :
- no additional self-classification is proposed for the registered substance regarding skin irritation according to the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP)
- the registered substance is classified as Category 3 according to the GHS based on slight irritation observed in human patch test and in acute dermal toxicity study.
Based on the available data no additional self-classification is proposed regarding eye irritation according to the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and to the GHS.
No data was available regarding respiratory irritation, however the substance not being classified for skin and eye irritation according to CLP criteria, no classification is expected for respiratory irritation.
