- TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: 24 hours prior to the dermal application, the backs of the rabbits were shaved. Two test sites lateral to the mid line of the back were used on each rabbit. Immediately before the application of the test compound, the right hand site was abraded uith the point of a sterile hypodermic needle. The abrasions were sufficiently deep to penetrate the stratum corneum but not to damage the dermis.
- % coverage: at least 10 % of the total body surface.
- Type of wrap if used: animals were covered with aluminium foil secured with "Sleek" adhesive tape. The test sites were then enclosed by a 6 wide "Coban" self adhesive bandage the edges of which were fixed to the skin by strips of "Sleek" in order to retain the test substance in close contact with the skin.
OBSERVATION TIME POINTS
After 24 hours the dressing was removed and the intact and abraded application sites were assessed for oedema and erythema. A further assessment wes made at 72 hours.

- other: not classified, according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008
- Conclusions:
- Mild irritating
- Executive summary:
The skin irritation potential of test item was assessed in six New Zealand White rabbits. The test was carried out according to the method given in the "Hazardous Substances Regulations" under the U.S. Federal Hazardous Substances Labelling Act Sect. 191.11 (February 1965).
A slight to well defined erythema and a very slight to slight oedema was seen in all rabbits 24 hours after application of the compound. A very slight oedema was still present in 3/6 rabbits at 72 hours. Also at this time 3/6 (No. 11, 14, 15) rabbits were showing slight desquamation of the epidermis at the application sites.
There was no significant difference between intact and abraded sites.
The primary irritation score was 1.6.
Conclusion
The scoring system criteria used to record the hardness of the skin reactions followed in the current test are the same as those reported into the OECD guideline, therefore it is possible to re-evaluate the results in accordance with the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008. Althought the observation time points were 24 and 72 hours, the mean scores for grading at 24, 48 and 72 hours can be reasonably estimated.
The mean values from gradings at 24, 48 and 72 hours were lower than lower than 2.3 for both erythema and oedema, in all the tested animals, both with skin shaved and scarified. Therefore, the substance does not meet the criteria to be classified as eye irritating, according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.

TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: the assessment was performed with the help of an ophthalmoscope. The corneal epithelium was detected with the fluorescein test: installation of 1 drop of fluorescein solution in ophthalmological preparation directly on the cornea. After rinsing with a physiological solution of hydrochloric acid, horny yellow-green appears. UV light or cobalt blue filter.

- Executive summary:
The procedures employed were that prescribed by Code of Federal Regulation, title 16, Section 1500.42. 100 µl of the test article were instilled into one eye of each animal, the other eye remaining untreated, served as a control.
The eyes were examined and the grade of ocular reaction was recorded at 24, 48, 72 hours and 8 days. The ocular reactions were scored by the method described by "Appraisal of the Safety of Chemicals in Foods, Drugs and Cosmetics" FDA, 1959.
The orimary irritation index resulted to be 0.8, thus the substance can be considered as non-irritating.
Conclusion
Although the criteria for the evaluation of the eye irritation potential followed in the test are different from those reported into the OECD guideline, the scoring system is hte same. Because the raw tables are included into the study report, it is possible to re-evaluate the results according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
The mean values from gradings at 24, 48 and 72 hours were lower than 1 for corneal opacity, lower than 1 for iritis, lower than 2 for both conjunctival redness and oedema, in all the tested animals, thus the substance does not meet the criteria to be classified as eye irritating, according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.

Additional information
SKIN IRRITATION
There is no data about the skin irritation potential of Acid Orange 127; therefore, the available data on structural analogous Similar Substance 02 has been taken into consideration. The read across approach can be considered as appropriate and suitable to assess the property under investigation (details about the approach are reported into the IUCLID section 13).
The skin irritation potential of the Similar Substance 02 was assessed in six New Zealand White rabbits. The test was carried out according to the method given in the "Hazardous Substances Regulations" under the U.S. Federal Hazardous Substances Labelling Act Sect. 191.11 (February 1965). A slight to well defined erythema and a very slight to slight oedema was seen in all rabbits 24 hours after application of the compound. A very slight oedema was still present in 3/6 rabbits at 72 hours. Also at this time 3/6 (No. 11, 14, 15) rabbits were showing slight desquamation of the epidermis at the application sites. There was no significant difference between intact and abraded sites.
Althought the observation time points were 24 and 72 hours, the mean scores for grading at 24, 48 and 72 hours can be reasonably estimated. The mean values from gradings at 24, 48 and 72 hours were lower than lower than 2.3 for both erythema and oedema, in all the tested animals, both with skin shaved and scarified. Therefore, the substance does not meet the criteria to be classified as eye irritating, according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
EYE IRRITATION
There is no data about the eye irritation potential of Acid Orange 127; therefore, the available data on structural analogous Similar Substance 01 has been taken into consideration. The read across approach can be considered as appropriate and suitable to assess the property under investigation (details about the approach are reported into the IUCLID section 13).
The procedures employed to evaluate the eye irritaiton potential of Similar Substance 01 were that prescribed by Code of Federal Regulation, title 16, Section 1500.42. 100 µl of the test article were instilled into one eye of each animal. The eyes were examined and the grade of ocular reaction was recorded at 24, 48, 72 hours and 8 days. The ocular reactions were scored by the method described by "Appraisal of the Safety of Chemicals in Foods, Drugs and Cosmetics" FDA, 1959.
The orimary irritation index resulted to be 0.8, thus the substance can be considered as non-irritating.
Justification for classification or non-classification
According to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, 3.2 Skin corrosion/irritation section, skin Irritation means the production of reversible damage to the skin following the application of a test substance for up to 4 hours.
The substance has been evaluated to be not skin irritating.
According to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 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 substance has been evaluated to be not eye irritating.
In conclusion, the substance is not classified for skin/eye irritation, according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
