Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Because the test substance did not induce skin irritation, no classification is needed.
Executive summary:

In a GLP compliant skin irritation study performed according to OECD 404 the test substance was shown to be not irritating to rabbit skin. No relevant systemic intolerance reactions were observed.
