Additional information

Skin irritation:

The potential of Laromer LR 8889 X to cause acute dermal irritation or corrosion was assessed by a single topical application of 0.5 ml of the test substance to the intact skin of 3 White Vienna rabbits for 4 hours under semiocclusive dressing. The average score (24 to 72 hours) for irritation was calculated to be 1.1 for erythema and 0.0 for Edema. The findings were reversible in all animals 8 days after application, thus the study was terminated. Under the test conditions chosen and considering the described findings Laromer LR 8889 X does not give indication of an irritant property to the skin (BASF, 1994).

In a second study according to Federal Regulations, Title 16, Section 1500.41, six rabbits were exposed to a dermal dose of 0.5 ml of the test substance for 24h under occlusive conditions to one intact and one abraded skin site and observed for three days. On the intact skin, very slight to slight erythema were observed in two of the six animals, which had completely disappeared on day 3. One animal showed a very slight oedema after 24h only. The remaining animals were free of any skin reactions on the intact skin. Even on the abraded skin, reactions were very mild and had all resolved after 72h. The Primary Irritation Index (PII) was calculated to be 0.5 (Huntingdon, 1997).

Eye irritation:

The potential of Laromer LR 8889 X to cause damage or irritation to the conjunctiva, iris or cornea was assessed in 3 White Vienna rabbits, subjected to a single ocular application of 0.1 ml of the test substance. The average score (24 to 72 hours) for irritation was calculated to be 0.9 for corneal opacity, 02. for iris, 1.8 for conjnctivae redness, and 0.9 for chemosis. The findings were reversible in all animals within 8 days after application, thus the study was terminated. Under the test conditions chosen and considering the described findings Laromer LR 8889 X is mildly irritating to eyes (BASF, 1994).

 

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the results of the skin and eye irritating testing, the test item is classified as eye irritating cat. 2B (H319) according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP).
