- TREATMENT
Approximately 24 hours before treatment, the dorsal fur was clipped with an electric clipper, exposing an area of approximately 100 square centimeters (10 cm x 10 cm). The skin of the animals was examined once, 1 day prior to test substance administration.Only those animals with no signs of skin injury or irritation were used in the test.On the day of treatment, 0.5 g of the test article was applied to approx. 6 cm2 of the intact skin of the clipped area. It was covered with a 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm patch of surgical gauze. The gauze was covered with a semi-occlusive dressing. The dressing was wrapped around the abdomen and anchored with an elastic bandage. The test substance was applied in such a position as to preclude oral ingestion after removal of the dressing.The duration of treatment was 4 hours. Then the dressing was removed and the skin was flushed with lukewarm tap water to clean the application site so that any reactions (erythema) were clearly visible at that time.

Blue or dark blue staining by the test article of the treated skin was observed.
No irreversible alterations of the treated skin were observed nor were corrosive effects evident on the skin. - Other effects:
- No clinical signs of systemic toxicity were observed in the animals during the test and observation period, and no mortality occurred.The body weight gain of all rabbits was within the normal range of variability.

- Executive summary:
The skin irritation test was performed to rabbit skin according to the OECD guideline 404.
The test substance was found to be non irritant when applied to intact rabbit skin: local signs (mean values from 24 to 72 hours) consisted of grade 0 erythema and grade 0 edema. The test article caused blue or pale blue staining of the treated skin, therefore the erythema reaction could not be evaluated after 24 and 48 hours, nevertheless the possible score are not considered to be significant . No corrosive effects were noted on the treated skin of any animal at any measuring interval. 6

The lids were then gently held together for about one second to prevent loss of the test substance. The right eye remained untreated and served as the reference control.

- Executive summary:
The eye irritation test was performed to rabbit eye according to the OECD Guyideline 405.
The substance was found to cause irritation: in particular, the mean values at 24, 48 and 72 hours for not rinsed eyes were 0 for corneal opacity and iris in all animals, equal or higher than 2 for both conjunctival redness and chemosis, in two of three animals tested. In addition, the irritation symptoms were not fully reversible after 21 days of observation. Blue or light blue staining of the treated eyes by the test article was observed.
Therefore, the test substance can be classified in Category 1 due to irreversible effects on the eye, according to the CLP Regulation (EC n. 1272/2008).

Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
According to the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008) substances that have the potential to induce reversible damage to the skin following the application of a test substance for up to 4 hours are classified in Category 2 (irritating to the skin) if:
- Mean value of ≥ 2.3 ≤ 4.0 for erythema/eschar or for oedema in at least 2 of 3 tested animals from gradings at 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal or, if reactions are delayed, from grades on 3 consecutive days after the onset of skin reactions; or
- Inflammation that persists to the end of the observation period normally 14 days in at least 2 animals, particularly taking into account alopecia (limited area), hyperkeratosis, hyperplasia, and scaling; or
- In some cases where there is pronounced variability of response among animals, with very definite positive effects related to chemical exposure in a single animal but less than the criteria above.
In the skin irritation test of the similar substance 01, the mean values at 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal were lower than 2.3 (explicitly, the mean values were zero) in all animals for both erythema/eschar and oedema reactions (in both intact and abraded skin). In the skin irritation test of the substance, the mean values at 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal were lower than 2.3 (explicitly, the mean values were zero) in all animals for edema reactions (in both intact and abraded skin).
According to the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008) substances that have the potential to induce reversible eye irritation are classified in Category 2 (irritating to eyes) if, when applied to the eye of an animal, a substance produces at least in 2 of 3 tested animals, a positive response of:
- corneal opacity ≥ 1 and/or
- iritis ≥ 1, and/or
- conjunctival redness ≥ 2 and/or
- conjunctival oedema (chemosis) ≥ 2,
calculated as the mean scores following grading at 24, 48 and 72 hours after installation of the test material, and which fully reverses within an observation period of 21 days.
The results show that the substance is not classified for skin irritation.
The substance was found to cause irritation in not rinsed eyes after 21 day of observation, especially in terms of conjunctival redness and chemosis.
Therefore, the test substance can be classified in Category 1 due to irreversible effects on the eye, according to the CLP Regulation (EC n. 1272/2008).
