- Time after start of exposure: 4 h

SCORING SYSTEM:
Dermal reactions of application site in each animal were graded according to the grades in the table below:

Reaction Score
Erythema and eschar formation
No erythema 0
Very slight erythema (barely perceptible) 1
Well-defined erythema 2
Moderate to severe erythema 3
Severe erythema (beet-redness) to eschar formation preventing grading of erythema 4

(Maximum possible)
4
Oedema formation
No oedema 0
Very slight oedema (barely perceptible) 1
Well- defined oedema (edges of area well- defined by definite raising) 2
Moderate oedema (raising approximately 1 mm) 3
Severe oedema (raised more than 1 mm and extending beyond exposure area) 4

(Maximum possible)
4

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Based on the above results and GHS, strontium ferrite is not classified as irritant.
Executive summary:

The acute dermal irritation of strontium ferrite was assessed in a test according to OECD 404 and UN-GHS. No animal showed mean value ≥2.3 for erythema / eschar or for oedema. One animal showed barely perceptible erythema shortly after application which was fully reversible. No other effects were observed.

Based on the results, strontium ferrite can be considered as not irritant to skin and does not require labelling.

In-vitro testing for skin corrosion and skin irritation is not required.
