Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The substance is not irritating to the skin
Executive summary:

Six rabbits were dermally exposed to the substance under occlusion for 24 hours. Observations at 24, 48 and 72 hours, as well after 7 days after exposure did not show any signs of irritation. Only the results of intact skin sites were taken into account. The substance is considered not irritating to the skin.
