- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- A well-defined erythema (grade 2) was noted in all animals on day 1, then a very slight erythema (grade 1) was observed up to day 3, 4, or 5. Dryness of the skin was observed on days 5, 6 and 7 in animal#1. See Table 7.3.1/1.
- Other effects:
- none
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- Under the test conditions, the test material induces a slight to well-defined erythema being reversible within 6 days. Therefore the test material is not classified as irritant to the skin according to the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and of the GHS.
- Executive summary:
In a dermal irritation study performed according to the OECD guideline No. 404, and in compliance with GLP, 0.5 mL of undiluted test material was applied on the clipped skin of the right flank of 3 males New Zealand White rabbits. Test sites were covered with a semi-occlusive dressing for 4 hours. Skin irritation was assessed and scored according to the Draize scale at 1, 24, 48, 72 hours after the removal of the patch and up to reversibility.
A well-defined erythema (grade 2) was noted in all animals on day 1, then a very slight erythema (grade 1) was observed up to day 3, 4, or 5. Dryness of the skin was recorded in one animal between day 5 and 7.
The individual scores for each animal within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hours) were 1.00 / 0.67 / 1.00 for erythema and 0.00 / 0.00 / 0.00 for oedema.
Therefore the test material is not classified as irritant to the skin according to the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and of the GHS.
This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for skin irritation endpoint.

[further information is included as attachment to Iuclid section 13]
1. HYPOTHESIS FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
This read-across is based on the hypothesis that source and target substances have similar physico-chemical, toxicological and environmental fate properties because of their composition similarity
2. SOURCE AND TARGET CHEMICAL(S) (INCLUDING INFORMATION ON PURITY AND IMPURITIES)
The target and the source substances are reaction mass, composed of three and two dimethylindanylpropanal isomers, respectively.
3. ANALOGUE APPROACH JUSTIFICATION
The source substance is not a skin irritant in the available study. The study design (OECD 404, GLP) is adequate and reliable for the purpose of the prediction based on read-across. The test material used represents the source substance as described in the hypothesis in terms of purity and impurities. The results of the studies are adequate for the purpose of classification and labelling.
The absence of skin irritation of the target substance is also supported by the acute dermal toxicity study in which no sign of irritation was observed in rats at 2000 mg/kg bw.
Therefore, based on the considerations above, it can be concluded that the results of the skin irritation studies conducted in the rabbit with the source substance are likely to predict the properties of the target substance and are considered as adequate to fulfil the information requirement of Annex VII, 8.1 - Reason / purpose for cross-reference:

Therefore the source and target substances are not classified as irritant to the skin according to the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and of the GHS.
This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for skin irritation endpoint.
- Endpoint:
- skin irritation: in vitro / ex vivo
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- an in vitro skin irritation study does not need to be conducted because adequate data from an in vivo skin irritation study are available

No other ocular reactions were observed during the study. See Table 7.3.2/1.
- Other effects:

- Conclusions:
- Under the test conditions, the test material induced very slight to slight irritation being reversible within 48 hours. Therefore the test material is not classified as irritant to the eyes according to the criteria of the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and of the GHS.
- Executive summary:
In an eye irritation study performed according to the OECD guideline No. 404, and in compliance with GLP, 0.1 mL of test material was instilled into the left eye of 3 male New Zealand White rabbits. The eyes were not rinsed after the instillation of the test material. The right eye of each rabbit served as control. Animals were observed at 1 hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours after dosing. No further observation was performed since complete reversibility was achieved within 48 hours. The reactions in the conjunctiva (redness, chemosis and discharge), the iris and the cornea (opacity and area involved) were scored according to the Draize scale.
The individual score for each animal within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hours) were as follows: 0.0 / 0.33 / 0.33 for redness, 0.0 / 0.0 / 0.33 for chemosis.
No other ocular reactions were observed during the study.
Under the test conditions, the test material is not classified as irritating to eyes according to the criteria of the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and of the GHS.
This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for skin irritation endpoint.

- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- Under the test conditions, the source substance induced very slight to slight irritation being reversible within 48 hours. Therefore the source and target substances are not classified as irritant to the eyes according to the criteria of the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and of the GHS.
- Executive summary:
In an eye irritation study performed according to the OECD guideline No. 404, and in compliance with GLP, 0.1 mL of source substance was instilled into the left eye of 3 male New Zealand White rabbits. The eyes were not rinsed after the instillation of the test material. The right eye of each rabbit served as control. Animals were observed at 1 hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours after dosing. No further observation was performed since complete reversibility was achieved within 48 hours. The reactions in the conjunctiva (redness, chemosis and discharge), the iris and the cornea (opacity and area involved) were scored according to the Draize scale.
The individual score for each animal within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hours) were as follows: 0.0 / 0.33 / 0.33 for redness, 0.0 / 0.0 / 0.33 for chemosis for the source substance.
No other ocular reactions were observed during the study.
Therefore, the source and target substances are not classified as irritating to eyes according to the criteria of the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and of the GHS.
This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for skin irritation endpoint.
- Endpoint:
- eye irritation: in vitro / ex vivo
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- an in vitro eye irritation study does not need to be conducted because adequate data from an in vivo eye irritation study are available

Additional information
Skin irritation:
No study was available on the substance itself, therefore a read-across approach was used. The supporting substance is considered adequate for read-across purpose as data relates to a mixture of dimethylindanylpropanal isomers, which is also the case for the registered substance.
In the dermal irritation study performed on the supporting substance according to the OECD guideline No. 404 and in compliance with GLP (CIT, 2000), a well-defined erythema (grade 2) was noted in all animals on day 1, then a very slight erythema (grade 1) was observed up to day 3, 4, or 5. Dryness of the skin was recorded in one animal between day 5 and 7. The individual scores for each animal within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hours) were 1.00 / 0.67 / 1.00 for erythema and 0.00 / 0.00 / 0.00 for oedema. Under the test conditions, the supporting substance is not a skin irritant.
Eye irritation :
No study was available on the substance itself, therefore a read-across approach was used. The supporting substance is considered adequate for read-across purpose.
In the eye irritation study performed on the supporting substance according to the OECD guideline No. 404 and in compliance with GLP (CIT, 2000), the individual score for each animal within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hours) were as follows: 0.0 / 0.33 / 0.33 for redness, 0.0 / 0.0 / 0.33 for chemosis. No other ocular reactions were observed during the study. Under the test conditions, the supporting substance is not an eye irritant.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Harmonized classification:
The substance has no harmonized classification according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
Self classification:
Based on the available data no additional self-classification is proposed regarding both skin and eye irritation according to the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and to the GHS.
No data was available regarding respiratory irritation. However, the substance not being classified for skin and eye irritation, no classification is expected for respiratory irritation .
