Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not irritating
Conclusions:
The overall irritation score of the substance was determined to be 0 and no erythema and edema (skin irritation) were found at the end of 14 days observation period after patch removal.
Hence, it was concluded that the test chemical was Non-Irritating to the skin of Sprague Dawley rats under the experimental conditions tested and classified as “Category-
Not Classified” as per CLP Classification.
Executive summary:

A study was designed and conducted to determine the dermal reaction profile of the test chemical in Sprague Dawley rats. The study was performed as per OECD Guidelines 402 and complying to the GLP procedures. 5 females (nulliparous and non-pregnant) were used for the study.

In the dose range finding study a single dose of 200 mg/kg body weight of the test item was administered to 1 female animal. No death or clinical signs of toxicity was observed during first 48 hours, hence, additional 1 female animal was administered with the dose of 1000 mg/kg body weight. Administration of 1000 mg/kg body weight did not reveal any clinical signs of toxicity or death during first 48 hours, hence, additional 1 female animal was administered at the dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight. Administration of 2000 mg/kg body weight did not reveal any clinical signs of toxicity or death during first 48 hours.

As the dose range finding study revealed no mortality or clinical signs at the maximum dose of 2000 mg/kg, the main study was initiated with two additional animals. The animals were administered with a dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight in sequential manner at 48 hours intervals.

Animals from dose range finding study treated at the dose levels of 200 mg/kg, 1000 mg/kg and 2000 mg/kg and animals from main study treated at the dose level of 2000 mg/kg exhibited normal body weight gain and revealed no clinical signs of toxicity or mortality during the study period of 14 days.

Gross pathological examination did not reveal any abnormalities attributable to the treatment.

The overall irritation score of the substance was determined to be 0 and no erythema and edema (skin irritation) were found at the end of 14 days observation period after patch removal.

Hence, it was concluded that the test chemical was Non-Irritating to the skin of Sprague Dawley rats under the experimental conditions tested and classified as “Category-

Not Classified” as per CLP Classification.
