Conclusions:
A mean score of. 1.84 (maximum score 8) was observed after 24 and 72 h. Therefore, the substance is not classified as irritating to skin according to EU criteria.
Executive summary:

05. ml of undiluted liquid was applied to intact and abraded skin of 6 albino rabbits. Erythema and edema were investigated after 24 and 72 h. No edema were observed after 24 and 72 h (grade 0). After 24h a grade of 2 (maximum score 8) was assed for erythema both for intact and abraded skin. After 72 h the score was 1.67.
