Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: CLP/EU GHS criteria are not met, no classification required according to Regulations (EC) No 1272/2008
Conclusions:
In a reliable skin irritation study conducted according to OECD TG 404 but not in compliance with GLP, showed the test material was not a skin irritant.
