Objective:
To determine the potential of the test article to induce dermal imtation when administered demially to New Zealand White rabbits. The study is designed to comply with the standards set forth by:
-EPA - Primary Demnal Initation, 40 CFR 798.4470 (latest revision -1995)
-EC Official Joumal of the European Communities, L 383 A, Part B, Method B.4. Acute Toxicity (Skin Initation) 12/29/92
-OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, No. 404, Acute Dermal Irritation/Corrosion, adopted 7/17/92.
Method Synopsis:
Six healthy New Zealand White rabbits (3 males-3 females) were dosed dermaily with the test substance. The test article (0.5 g) was applied to one intact site/rabbit. The test article was kept in contact with the skin for 4 hours at which time the wrappings were removed. Dermal reactions were scored at 30 to 60 minutes and 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of wrappings. Systemic signs were recorded at each observation period. Body weights were recorded pretest.
Summary:
Erythema and edema, absent at 30 to 60 minutes after patch removal, were absent to very slight at 24 and 48 hours and cleared by 72 hours.
There were no abnormal systemic signs noted during the observation period. Body weight changes were normal.
Conclusion:
The test substance is not classified as a skin irritant.

After instillation, the lids were held together for approximately one second to insure adequate distribution of the test article.
One eye of each rabbit was dosed. The contralateral eye served as a control. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- A single application of the test material.
- Observation period (in vivo):
- 72 hours.

- Washing (if done): Not performed.
SCORING SYSTEM: Ocular reactions were graded according to the numerical Draize technique (see below).
TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: Using a Mini-Maglite flashlight equipped with a high intensity bulb, the treated eye of each rabbit was
examined for irritation of the comea, iris and conjunctiva at 1, 24, 48, and 72 hours post dose. The eyes were scored again on day 7. Sodium fluorescein was used to determine corneal effects following the 24 hour observation and at each subsequent reading until there was no stain retention.
The eyes were not scored on day 4 as specified in the protocol. This did not effect the outcome of the study.

Method Synopsis:
Six healthy New Zealand White rabbits (females), free from evidence of ocular irritation and corneal abnormalities, as determined by pretest fluorescein procedures, were dosed with the test substance. The test article (0.1 ml equivalent (88 mg)) was placed into the conjunctival sac of one eye of each rabbit. The eyes were examined and scored by the Draize technique at 1, 24, 48 and 72
hours post dose. The eyes were scored again on day 7. Sodium fluorescein was used to determine corneal effects following the 24 hour observation and at each subsequent reading until there was no stain retention. Body weights were recorded pretest.
Summary:
Corneal opacity, noted in 1/6 eyes, cleared by 48 hours. Iritis, noted in 2/6 eyes, cleared by 24 hours. Conjunctival irritation, noted in 6/6 eyes, cleared by day 7.
There were no abnormal systemic observations.

Erythema and edema, absent at 30 to 60 minutes after patch removal, were absent to very slight at 24 and 48 hours and cleared by 72 hours.
There were no abnormal systemic signs noted during the observation period. Body weight changes were normal.
The test substance is not classified as a skin irritant.

There were no abnormal systemic observations.
The test substance is not classified as an eye irritant.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Although minor skin and eye irritation effects were seen in the skin and eye irritation studies, these effects cleared and were not sufficient to cause classification.
The substance does not meet the criteria to be classified as a skin or eye irritant.
