Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
corrosive
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The results are not enough detailed, to propose a conclusion
Executive summary:

The irritation effects of DES have been studied in a test with 5 rabbits exposed for 24 h to 0.01 mL of the test substance.

The effects were observed at 24 h only. Necrosis was observed (score of 6 on a scale from 1 to 10).
