Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The substance was considered to be non-corrosive to the skin.
Executive summary:

In an in vitro skin corrosion study human skin tissue (eipdermis keratinocytes) was exposed to the undiluted substance for 3-minutes and 1-hour. There was 95% and 96.1% tissue viability following the 3-minutes and 1-hour exposure points, respectively. Resultantly, the test material is considered to be a non-irritant and non-corrosive to skin.
