Test animals

Species:
rabbit
Strain:
New Zealand White
Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
Animals were housed individually in metal cages.The animal room was air conditionned: temperature 22±3° C, relative humidity 55+15%; 12 hours light/day, approximately15 air changes/h.Source: New Zealand White Rabbits, Kleintierfarm Madoerin AG, CH-4414 FuellinsdorfRabbit food, NAFAG, No. 814 Tox, NAFAG AG, Gossau, SG (Switzerland),and water were provided ad libitum.

Test system

Type of coverage:
occlusive
Preparation of test site:
shaved
Controls:
no
Amount / concentration applied:
0.5 ml of test material
Duration of treatment / exposure:
24 h treatment
Observation period:
24h, 48h, 72h, 4 and 7 days
Number of animals:
3 male / 3 female
Details on study design:
24 hours before treatement the flanks of the rabbits were shaved with an electric clipper (approximately 6 sq.cm each) and immediately before treatment the shaven skin on one side was slightly scarified with the help of a "Schroepfschnaepper", Aesculap, Switzerland. Gauze patches soaked (or loaded) with 0.5 ml of the test material were applied to the prepared abraded and intact skin.The patches were covered with an impermeable material and were fastened to the body of the rabbit with adhesive tape. The dressing s were removed after 24 hours.The skin reaction was assessed upon removal and during a subsequent observation period of 7 days on the basis of the following evaluation scheme.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: OECD GHS
Conclusions:
since no animals were observed an average of erythema and eschar or edema more than 2, the sample is classified as not irritant for skin.
Executive summary:

The substance has been tested for skin irritation with 6 New Zealand white rabbits with an occlusive method. After 7 days of observation no rabbit shows signs of erythema or edema. The substance is classified as non-irritating to the skin
