- Three-mi nute Exposure
Very slight erythema was noted at two treated s k i n sites one hour after removal of the patches. Well-defined erythema had developed at all treated skin sites a t the 24-hour observation and well-defined or moderate t o severe erythema continued to be noted a t the 48 and 72-hour observations. Flaking, dry, - straw-col oured s k i n (possi ble hyperkeratinisation) was noted a t all treated skin s i t e s on days seven and fourteen. The reactions extended approximately 8 cm beyond one of the treated skin sites from the 72-hour observation onwards.
Very slight oedema was confined to one treated skin s i t e one hour after patch removal. Slight or moderate oedema had developed at all treated skin sites a t t h e 24-hour observation and slight oedema con-tinued to be noted at the 48 and 72-hour observations. The oedema extended beyond one treated s k i n s i t e a t the 24, 48 and 72-hour observations. No oedema was noted on days seven and fourteen.
One-hour Exposure
Very slight or well-defined erythema was noted at all treated skin sites one hour after removal of the patches. Well -defined or moderate to severe
erythema, w i t h areas of brown discolouration of the s k i n , were noted a t all treated s k i n sites at the 24, 48 and 72-hour observations. A brown dis-colouration of the skin and loss of skin suppleness were noted a t two treated s k i n sites on day seven. Flaking, dry, straw-coloured skin (possible hyperkeratinisation) was noted at the remaining treated skin site a t this time and a t all treated skin sites on day fourteen. The reactions extended approximately 8 to 10 cm beyond all treated s k i n sites during the observati on period.
Oedema, ranging from very slight to moderate was noted a t all treated skin sites one hour after patch removal. Severe oedema had developed a t all
treated s k i n sites at the 24-hour observation b u t the oedema decreased and was only slight a t the 72-hour observation. The oedema extended beyond all treated s k i n sites at the 24, 48 and 72-hour observations. No oedema was noted on days seven and fourteen.
Four-hour Exposure
The dermal reactions extended up to 8 cm beyond all treated skin sites during the observation period. Well-defined erythema was noted at at 7 treated skin sites one and 24 hours after removal of the patches. A slight haemorrhage of the dermal capillaries was noted at one treated skin site a t these observations. A brown discolouration of the s k i n was also noted at one treated skin site at the 24-hour observation. Well-defined or moderate to severe erythema was noted at all treated skin sites at the 48 and 72-hour observations. A green or brown discolouration of the skin was noted at two treated skin sites at these times, with transverse folding of the skin apparent at one treated skin site. On day seven dry, straw-coloured, flaking skin
( possi ble hyperkeratinisation) was noted at all treated skin sites. Small scattered scabs were also noted at two treated skin sites. Fissuring of the
skin, with signs of dried blood i n the fissures, was apparent at one treated skin site.
On day fourteen, glossy skin and reduced fur growth, w i t h or without desquamation, was noted at two treated s k i n sites. Fissuring, w i t h
associated small scattered scabs, and reduced fur growth were noted at the remaining treated skin site.
To establish reversibil ity of the dermal reactions an additional observation was made on day twenty-one. Glossy skin and reduced fur growth were noted at all treated skin sites. No evidence of corrosion was noted.
Slight or severe oedema was noted at all treated skin sites one hour after patch removal. Oedema ranging from very slight to moderate was noted at all treated skin sites at the 24, 48 and 72-hour observations. Very slight or slight oedema was noted at two treated skin sites on day seven. No oedema
was noted at the remaining treated skin site at this time or at any treated skin site on days fourteen or twenty-one.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 2 (irritant) based on GHS criteria
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- The mean erythema and oedema score after 4 hr exposure was between 2.3 and 4.0 for two out of three animals.
Reversibility not completely shown within 21 days.
No signs of necrosis. - Executive summary:
A study was performed to assess the effects of Amine M210D on the irritancy potential to the skin of the New Zealand White rabbit. The method used was based on that described in the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals (1981) No. 404 "Acute Dermal Irritation/Corrosion".
A three minute, 1 hour and 4 hours, semi-occluded dermal application of the test material to the intact skin of three rabbits followed by a decontamination procedure with 3% (v/v) aqueous acetic acid followed by cotton wool in distilled water, produced irritation scores directly after patch removal and 1,2 and 3 days afterwards. The erythema/eschar effects were not fully reversible within 21 days, but the oedema effects were within 14 days. There was no evidence of visible necrosis.
The test material produced positive criteria for skin irritation following a four-hour exposure period in all rabbits.
The test material produced no evidence of visible necrosis following exposure periods of up to four hours.
