Description of key information
Key studies were available for
- skin irritation: in vivo rabbit study showing mean scores over 24, 48 and 72 hours for each animal of 0, 0.3 and 0 for erythema and 0, 0 and 0 for oedema. and mean scores for the three animals of 0.1 for erythema and 0 for oedema. Under the experimental conditions, the test substance is non-irritant when applied topically to rabbits.
- eye irritation: in vivo rabbit study showing mean scores over 24, 48 and 72 hours of 1, 2 and 2 for corneal opacity, 0.3, 1 and 1 for iris lesions, 2.7, 3 and 3 for chemosis and 3, 3 and 3 for redness of the conjunctiva, and mean scores for the three animals of 1.7 for corneal opacity, 0.8 for iris lesions, 2.9 for chemosis and 3 for redness of the conjunctiva. A slight corneal opacity was recorded in all animals at the 24-hour examination and persisted through 48 or 72 hours. Chemosis and redness were still present in two animals on day 21 ; discharge cleared no later than day 10. A slight iritis was noted in two animals from 1 hour through 7 days after treatment; in the third animal iritis was seen only at 24 hours. A black area on the conjunctiva was seen in two animals from the 24-hour examination through day 14 or 17. All reactions were clear in all animals by day 36. Under the experimental conditions, the test substance is irritant when administered by ocular route in rabbits.

- Controls:
- other: The untreated skin served as control.
- Amount / concentration applied:
- - Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 500 mg
- Duration of treatment / exposure:
- As possible irritant effects were anticipated, the test substance was first evaluated on a single animal (No. 874). The duration of exposure was 3 minutes on one flank (left flank) and 4 hours on the other flank (right flank). Since the test substance was not irritant on this first animal, it was then applied for 4 hours to two other animals (Nos. 884 and 885).
- Observation period:
- The skin was examined approximately 1 hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of the dressing.
Following the OECD and EC guidelines, because there was no evidence of dermal irritation after 72 hours, the study was ended. - Number of animals:
- 3
- Details on study design:
- TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: flank
- % coverage: No data provided.
- Type of wrap if used: Doses of 500 mg of the test substance were placed on a moistened gauze pad, which was then applied to the right flank (application for 4 hours) or the left flank (application for 3 minutes) of the animals. The test substance and the gauze pad were held in contact with the skin by means of an adhesive hypoallergenic aerated semi-occlusive dressing and a restraining bandage. The untreated skin served as control.
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): Yes
- Time after start of exposure: After removal of the dressing (after 3 minutes or after 4 hours), any residual test substance was wiped off by means of a moistened gauze pad (water).

The potential of the test substance CA 3105 A (Intermediate of CGA 362622) to induce skin irritation was evaluated in rabbits according to OECD (No. 404, 17th July 1992) and EC (92/69/EEC, B.4, 31 st July 1992) guidelines. The study was conducted in compliance with the principles of Good Laboratory Practice Regulations.
The test substance was first applied for periods of 3 minutes and 4 hours to a single male New Zealand White rabbit. Since the test substance was not irritant on the first animal, it was then applied for 4 hours to two other animals. A single dose of 500 mg of the test substance in its original form was applied to the closely-clipped skin of one flank. The test substance was held in contact with the skin by means of a semi-occlusive dressing. Cutaneous reactions were observed approximately 1 hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of the dressing.
After a 3-minute exposure (one animal), no cutaneous reactions were observed. After a 4-hour exposure (three animals), a very slight erythema was noted in 2/3 animals on day 1; it persisted up to day 2 in one of them.
Mean scores over 24, 48 and 72 hours for each animal were 0, 0.3 and 0 for erythema and 0, 0 and 0 for oedema. Mean scores for the three animals were 0.1 for erythema and 0 for oedema.
Under our experimental conditions, the test substance is non-irritant when applied topically to rabbits.
According to the classification criteria laid down in Commission Directive 93/21/EEC, CA 3105 A (Intermediate of CGA 362622) is not required to be classified as irritating to the skin.

According to the classification criteria laid down in Commission Directive 93/21/EEC, CA 3105 A (Intermediate of CGA 362622) should be classified as R 36: “Irritating to eyes”. - Executive summary:
The potential of the test substance CA 3105 A (Intermediate of CGA 362622) to induce ocular irritation was evaluated in rabbits according to OECD (No. 405, 24th February 1987) and EC (92/69/EEC, B.5, 31st July 1992) guidelines. The study was conducted in comp1iance with the principles of Good Laboratory Practice Regulations.
The test substance was first administered to a single male New Zealand White Rabbit. Since the test substance was not severely irritant on this first animal, it was then evaluated in two other animals. A single dose of 100 mg of the test substance in its original form was introduced into the left conjunctival sac. The right eye served as control. The eyes were not rinsed after administration of the test substance.
Ocular reactions were observed approximately 1 hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the administration/ and then on days 7, 10, 14, 17, 21 and 36.
Very slight to moderate chemosis, very slight to moderate redness of the conjunctiva and clear to whitish purulent discharge were observed in all animals from the 1-hour observation. The chemosis and redness were still present in two animals on day 21 ; the discharge cleared no later than day 10. A slight iritis was noted in two animals from 1 hour through 7 days after treatment; in the third animal iritis was seen only at 24 hours. A slight corneal opacity was recorded in all animals at the 24-hour examination and persisted through 48 or 72 hours. A black area on the conjunctiva was seen in two animals from the 24-hour examination through day 14 or 17. All reactions were clear in all animals by day 36.
Mean scores calculated for each animal over 24, 48 and 72 hours were 1, 2 and 2 for corneal opacity, 0.3, 1 and 1 for iris lesions, 2.7, 3 and 3 for chemosis and 3, 3 and 3 for redness of the conjunctiva. Mean scores calculated for the three animals were 1. 7 for corneal opacity, 0.8 for iris lesions, 2.9 for chemosis and 3 for redness of the conjunctiva.
Under our experimental conditions, the test substance is irritant when administered by ocular route in rabbits.According to the classification criteria laid down in Commission Directive 93/21/EEC, CA 3105 A (Intermediate of CGA 362622) should be classified as R 36: “Irritating to eyes”.
Reference
Very slight to moderate conjunctival reactions including very slight to moderate chemosis (grades 1 to 3), very slight to moderate redness of the conjunctiva (grades 1 to 3) and clear to whitish purulent discharge were observed in all animals from day 1: the chemosis and redness were still present in two animals on day 21; the discharge cleared no later than day 10.
A slight iritis (grade 1) was noted in all animals, from day 1 up to day 7 (two animals) or on day 2 only ( one animal).
A very slight or slight corneal opacity (grade 1 or 2) was also recorded in all animals from day 2; it persisted up to day 4 at the latest.
A black area on the conjunctiva was seen in two animals from the 24-hour examination through day 14 or 17.
Mean scores calculated for each animal over 24, 48 and 72 hours were 1, 2 and 2 for corneal opacity, 0.3, 1 and 1 for iris lesions, 2.7, 3 and 3 for chemosis and 3, 3 and 3 for redness of the conjunctiva.
Mean scores calculated for the three animals were 1.7 for corneal opacity, 0.8 for iris lesions, 2.9 for chemosis and 3 for redness of the conjunctiva.

Additional information
A key study for dermal irritation/corrosion was performed in rabbits according to OECD (No. 404) and EC (92/69/EEC, B.4) guidelines (Griffon, 2000). The test substance was first applied for periods of 3 minutes and 4 hours to a single male New Zealand White rabbit. Since the test substance was not irritant on the first animal, it was then applied for 4 hours to two other animals. A single dose of 500 mg of the test substance in its original form was applied to the closely-clipped skin of one flank. The test substance was held in contact with the skin by means of a semi-occlusive dressing. Cutaneous reactions were observed approximately 1 hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of the dressing. After a 3-minute exposure (one animal), no cutaneous reactions were observed. After a 4-hour exposure (three animals), a very slight erythema was noted in 2/3 animals on day 1; it persisted up to day 2 in one of them. Mean scores over 24, 48 and 72 hours for each animal were 0, 0.3 and 0 for erythema and 0, 0 and 0 for oedema. Mean scores for the three animals were 0.1 for erythema and 0 for oedema. Under the experimental conditions, the test substance is non-irritant when applied topically to rabbits.
A key study for eye irritation was performed in rabbits according to OECD (No. 405) and EC (92/69/EEC, B.5) guidelines (Griffon, 2001). The test substance was first administered to a single male New Zealand White Rabbit. Since the test substance was not severely irritant on this first animal, it was then evaluated in two other animals. A single dose of 100 mg of the test substance in its original form was introduced into the left conjunctival sac. The right eye served as control. The eyes were not rinsed after administration of the test substance.
Ocular reactions were observed approximately 1 hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the administration/ and then on days 7, 10, 14, 17, 21 and 36.
Very slight to moderate chemosis, very slight to moderate redness of the conjunctiva and clear to whitish purulent discharge were observed in all animals from the 1-hour observation. The chemosis and redness were still present in two animals on day 21 ; the discharge cleared no later than day 10. A slight iritis was noted in two animals from 1 hour through 7 days after treatment; in the third animal iritis was seen only at 24 hours. A slight corneal opacity was recorded in all animals at the 24-hour examination and persisted through 48 or 72 hours. A black area on the conjunctiva was seen in two animals from the 24-hour examination through day 14 or 17. All reactions were cleared in all animals by day 36.
Mean scores calculated for each animal over 24, 48 and 72 hours were 1, 2 and 2 for corneal opacity, 0.3, 1 and 1 for iris lesions, 2.7, 3 and 3 for chemosis and 3, 3 and 3 for redness of the conjunctiva. Mean scores calculated for the three animals were 1.7 for corneal opacity, 0.8 for iris lesions, 2.9 for chemosis and 3 for redness of the conjunctiva. Under the experimental conditions, the test substance is irritant when administered by ocular route in rabbits.

Effects on eye irritation: irritating
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the results of the dermal irritation/corrosion study in rabbits, Sodium {[3-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-2-pyridinyl]sulfonyl}azanide (TFEPSN) does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for skin irritation according to the EU labelling regulations Commision directive 93/21/EEC and the CLP regulation (No. 1272/2008 of 16 December 2008).
According to the classification criteria laid down in Commission Directive 93/21/EEC, Sodium {[3-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-2-pyridinyl]sulfonyl}azanide (TFEPSN) should be classified as R 36: “Irritating to eyes”. According the CLP regulation (No. 1272/2008 of 16 December 2008), it should be classified as Category 1 (H318; causes serious eye damage), taking into account that there were still effects seen on day 21. Nevertheless, on day 36 all effects were cleared.
