Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Skin Corr. 1, H314 according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
Conclusions:
In this in vitro skin corrosion test with EpiDerm™ tissue conducted according to OECD guideline 431, the mean cell viability compared to the negative control was 74.5% after 3 min exposure and 10.8% after 60 min exposure with the test substance. All validity criteria were within acceptable limits. Under the conditions of the test, the test item is considered corrosive and requires classification as Skin Corr. 1 (H314) according to CLP/EU GHS criteria.
