Description of key information
A sample of was tested in the rabbit primary skin irritation/corrosion test to determine its possible irritating or corrosive effects.
The flank skin of 3 female rabbits was exposed to 0.5 ml of the test substance for 4 hours using semi-occlusive dressing. This resulted in very slight, temporary oedema, and moderate erythema, which persisted for seven days in one animal and for two to three days in the other animals. The treated skin area of all animals showed scale formation from day 7 onwards. The mean values for eshar/erythema is =>1.5 and =< 2.3 for 2 out of 3 animals. The oedema score is < 1.5. Although the scoring does not warrant C&L the substance is classified as irritant because of the scaling observed from day 7 onwards.
The substance was tested, in the rabbit acute eye irritation/corrosion test to determine its possible irritating or corrosive effects. Instillation of 0.1 ml of the test substance in one of the eyes of three female rabbits resulted in slight redness and swelling of the conjunctivae. In two of the animals the conjunctival effects disappeared within twenty-four hours, whereas in one animal slight redness persi sted for forty-eight hours. No adverse effects on the cornea and the iris were observed in any of the rabbits during the entire observation period.
