- Amount / concentration applied:
- TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 500 mg test item - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- Initial test (1 rabbit) : 4 hours

- Details on study design:
- TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: Approximately 24 hours before the test, the fur was removed by closely clipping the dorsal area of the trunk of the animals. Care was taken to avoid abrading the skin. Only animals with healthy intact skin were used.
- % coverage: area: approx. 6 cm2
- Type of wrap if used: The test item was applied to the test site and then covered with a gauze patch, which was held in place with non-irritating tape for the duration of the exposure period.
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): At the end of the exposure time no residual test item had to be removed.
SCORING SYSTEM:
Erythema and eschar formation
0 : no erythema
1 : very slight erythema (barely perceptible)
2 : well-defined erythema
3 : moderate to severe erythema
4 : severe erythema (beef redness) to eschar formation preventing grading of erythema
Oedema formation
0 : no oedema
1 : very slight oedema (barely perceptible)
2 : slight oedema (edges of area well defined by definite raising)
3 : moderate oedema (raised approx. 1 mm)
4 : severe oedema (raised more than 1 mm and extending beyond the area of exposure)

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Remarks:
- Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- Fatty acids, C16-18 and C18-unsatd., compds. with triethanolamine is non-irritating to skin, hence, no labelling is required.
- Executive summary:
Acute dermal irritation/corrosion test was tested by means of a semi-occlusive patch test in rabbits according to EC method B.4. (Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008) and OECD test guidance 404 (2002). 500 mg Fatty acids, C16-18 and C18-unsatd., compds. with triethanolamine were applied to the closely clipped dorsal area of the trunk of the animals. As it was expected that the test item would not produce any severe irritancy or corrosion, the test was started using at first only one animal, receiving a single patch for an exposure period of 4 hours.
As neither a corrosive effect nor a severe irritant effect was observed after a four-hour exposure, the test was completed using two additional animals, each with one patch only, for an exposure period of 4 hours. After the 4 hour exposure period the patch was removed and the skin sites were evaluated.Scores were taken 60 minutes, 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal.
Under the present test conditions, rabbits exposed for 4 hours to 500 mg Fatty acids, C16-18 and C18-unsatd., compds. with triethanolamine/animal showed slight skin reactions expressed as erythema at 60 minutes and/or 24 hours of observation. Mean 24-48h scores were 0.33 for erythema and 0.00 for oedema. The findings were reversible by 48 hours observation period and the scores were below the trigger value for classification.There were no systemic intolerance reactions.
