Animals were clipped with an electric clipper on a 12x12cm surface on both flanks. Precautions were taken to avoid any mecanical irritation of the zone to be tested. Only animals without any cutaneous lesion were selected for the tests.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 22+- 2°C
- Humidity: 55% +- 10%
- Air changes: 12 times per hour
- Photoperiod: 12h dark : 12h light

- other: one flank abraded and one flank intact
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Controls:
- not specified

- Amount applied : 0.5g per zone tested (abraded or not) per animal - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 23h
- Observation period:
- 72h
- Number of animals:

- Details on study design:
- TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: 2 cm squared zone recovered by a sterile gauze pad. Material to be tested and the gauze pas are kept into contact with the skin by a patch consisting of a circular central disk of 22mm (occlusive patch) with a surrounding adhesive hypoallergenic, perforated plaster 10mm wide. Finally an adhesive tape 6cm wide is wound around the animal to complete the fixing of the patches.
- Type of wrap if used:
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): no data
- Time after start of exposure: the patches were removed after 23h of contact time. one hour after the scoring is evaluated.
SCORING SYSTEM is the same as in the OECD guideline:
erythematous lesions (and scar):
-no erythema......................................................0
- very slight erythema (barely perceptible)....1
- well defined reythema......................................2
- moderate to severe erythema........................3
- severe erythema, crimson red, with slight
eschar formation (injuries in depth)...............4
Oedematous lesions:
-no oedema.........................................................0
- very slight oedema (barely perceptible).......1
- slight oedema (edges of area well defined
by definite raising)..............................................2
- moderate oedema (area raised
approximatively 1 mm).....................................3
- severe oedema (raised more than 1 mm
and extending beyond area of application)....4
Afterwhat, calculations are slightly different: for each of the experimental animals, the scores after 24h and 72h are added together (scarified and non scarified zones). The scores are combined and divided by the number of readings (i.e. 24) to give a combined mean. the mean obtained is termed the index of primary cutaneous irritation and may be used to classify the test substance as follows:
- less than 0.5 ............. non irritant
- from 0.5 up to 2 .......slightly irritant
- from 2 up to 5 ..........moderatly irritant
- from 5 up to 8............severely irritant
As the evaluation is based on the same parameters and symptoms and the interpretations of the results are coherent, OECD calculations are used here. - Irritation parameter:
- erythema score
- Basis:
- mean
- Time point:
- other: 24 & 72hr

- Score:

- Max. score:

- Remarks on result:

- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- No erythema or oedema were recorded in any of the six rabbits on the scarified and non scarified zones.
- Other effects:
- None
- Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this test, acid omega amino undecanoique is not irritating for the skin considering EU and GHS classification
- Executive summary:
In a primary cutaneous irritation study (IFREB, 1978), six male albino New Zealand white rabbits were used. The six rabbits were clipped to bare a skin surface of 14 cm x 14 cm. The right flank was scarified, making three parallel superficial incisions which were epidermal and did not damage the dermis. The compound acide omega amino undecanoique (0.5 g) was applied to the rabbit skin, using the right, previously scarified flank and the left intact one under an occlusive coverage. After 23 hours of contact with the skin, the primary irritation index was evaluated at 24 and 72 hr. No erythema or oedema were recorded in any of the six rabbits on the scarified and non scarified zones. The scores obtained were 0 for erythema and oedema at 24 and 72 hr. Under the conditions of this test, the substance is not irritant according to EU and GHS classification.

observations of the conditions of the cornea were done with the naked eye with an ophtalmoscop of Heine (Microflex C-00. 13. 101)
SCORING SYSTEM:
the scoring is based on the same parameter and symptoms as in the OECD guideline : cornea, conjunctive, iris and chemosis.
Other parameters were observed in this study like discharge, ulceration and granulation of the cornea.
Then the calculation for the interpretation of the results is slightly different in that the scores are added and a coefficient is applied : 2 for conjunctive and chemosis parameter and 5 for iris anc cornea scores.
As the evaluation is based on the same parameters and symptoms and the interpretations of the results are coherent, OECD calculations are used here.

- Conclusions:

- Executive summary:
In an ocular irritation test (IFREB, 1978), six male albino New Zealand white rabbits were used. The test substance (acide omega amino undecanoique) was introduced into the animal's right eye, the animal's left eye served as a control. Animals were observed for 7 days. Irritation was scored following a grading of ocular lesions similar to that of the guideline OECD 405. The results showed that the substance was slightly irritating. After one hour the 6 rabbits showed chaemosis, discharge, enanthema and congestion reactions. Most of these effects decreased after 24 hr and desappeared totally after 3 days.The scores (mean: 24, 48 and 72 hr scores) obtained for chemosis, redness of conjunctivae, iris lesion and cornea opacity were respectively 0.26, 0.27, 0.11 and 0. Under the conditions of this test, the substance is considered as not irritating according to EU and GHS classification.

Additional information
Skin irritation/corrosion:
One study is recorded for this endpoint. This study has been identified as suitable to be chosen as key study. Indeed, this study was performed with New Zealand White rabbits following a method comparable to OECD TG 404 with acceptable restrictions. Results showed that 11 -aminoundecanoic acid is not irritant after a 24 -hour occlusive application on the abraded or intact rabbit skin.
Eye irritation:
Two studies are recorded for this endpoint. One is an in vivo ocular irritation test (IFREB, 1978) which has been chosen as key study. The second is a publication using an in vitro EYTEX system for the ocular irritancy of chemical products (Régnier et al., 1994) which has been chosen as supporting study. The in vivo test showed chaemosis, discharge, enanthema and iris congestion as soon as 1 -hour after application of the substance in 6 rabbits. But after 72 -hours all these effects had desappeared. In the in vitro experiment, based on alterations in a protein matrix, 11 -aminoundecanoic acid was also classified as non-irritant. All together, these results showed that 11 -aminoundecanoic acid is not an eye irritant.
Conclusion:
Under the conditions of these tests, 11-aminoundecanoic acid induced no skin irritation and only a slight transient eye irritation in rabbits.
Effects on eye irritation: slightly irritating
Justification for classification or non-classification
- Skin irritation/ corrosion: not classified, mean scoring value for erythema/eschar or for oedema was 0.
- Eye irritation/ corrosion: not classified, mean scoring value for corneal opacity or iritis was beneath 1 and conjunctival redness or conjunctival oedema was beneath 2. Moreover, the observed slight irritation was fully reversible within 21 days.
