the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a strong acid (pH ≤ 2.0) or base (pH ≥ 11.5) and the available information indicates that it should be classified as skin corrosion (Category 1, 1A, 1B or 1C)
Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
adverse effect observed (corrosive)

Eye irritation
