Any other information on results incl. tables

The observed skin irritation consisted of well defined erythema and very slight or slight oedema in the three animals. The skin irritation was reversible within 14 days after exposure in all animals.

No staining of the treated skin by the test substance was observed.

There was no evidence of a corrosive effect on the skin.

No symptoms of systemic toxicity were observed in the animals during the test period and no mortality occurred.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
moderately irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
DC 5067 resulted in a primary irritation index of 2.3 (moderately irritating) when applied to the intact rabbit skin.
According to the EEC criteria for classification and labelling requirements for dangerous substances (EEC Directive 83/467/EEC, Annex VI of the EEC Council Directive 67/548/EEC), DC 5067 need not be labelled as a skin irritant.
Executive summary:

The purpose of this study was to assess the possible irritation or corrosion potential of DC5067 when a single dose was placed on the skin of rabbits. This study was carried out in accordance with OECD Guideline Number 404, "Acute Dermal Irri tation/Corrosion and EEC Directive 84/449/EEC, Part 8.4, "Acute Toxicity-Skin Irritation". DC5067 was applied on the shaved skin of three female rabbits using semi-occlusive dressings for 4 hours, followed by six observations at approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours and 7 and 14 days after removal of the dressings and the remaining test substance. Under the conditions of this study, DC5067 resulted in well defined erythema and very slight or slight oedema in the three animals. The skin irritation was reversible within 14 days after exposure in all animals. In the area of application, no staining of the treated skin in any of the rabbits. No signs of systemic intoxication were observed during the study period.
