- Housing: suspended cages
- Diet / water: Free access to mains drinking water and food was allowed throughout the study
- Acclimation period: at least five

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 17 to 23 °C
- Humidity (%): 30 to 70%
- Air changes (per hr): at least fifteen changes
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): lighting was controlled by a time switch to give twelve hours continuous light (06:00 to 18:00) and twelve hours darkness.

Test system

Type of coverage:

semiocclusive

Preparation of test site:

clipped

Controls:

not required

Amount / concentration applied:

TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied: 0.5 g of the test item

VEHICLE
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5 mL of distilled water

resulting to a 10% w/w aqueous preparation of the test item

Duration of treatment / exposure:

Duration of treatment: 3 minutes, 1 hour and 4 hours after application.

Observation period:

72 hours after exposure

Number of animals:

2 animals
The number of animals used was the minimum required to achieve the objectives of the study. Testing was conducted on two animals and the response in these animals was such that exposure of a third animal would not affect classification of the test item, therefore no further testing was needed.

Details on study design:

TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: 3

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done):
- Time after start of exposure:

OBSERVATION TIME POINTS
Immediately following removal of the patches (3 minutes, 1 hour and 4 hours) and approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours later

SCORING SYSTEM:
- Method of calculation: Calculation of Primary Irritation Index and Grading of Irritancy Potential Using the Draize Scheme

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

The test item produced a primary irritation index of 0.0 and was classified as non-irritant to rabbit skin according to the Draize classification scheme. No corrosive effects were noted.
The test item does not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, relating to the Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures and the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals.

Executive summary:

The dermal irritancy potential of the test item following single, 3-Minute, 1 and 4-Hour, semi-occluded applications to the intact rabbit skin was assessed according to the OECD Guidelines for  the Testing of Chemicals No.404  "Acute  Dermal Irritation/Corrosion" (adopted 24 April 2002). The study was conducted in compliance with the principles of Good Laboratory Practice.

At each test site a quantity of 0.5 g of the test item, moistened sufficiently with 0.5 mL of distilled water to achieve a paste, was introduced under a 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm cotton gauze patch on three suitable sites selected on the back of the rabbit.

3-Minute and 1-Hour semi-occluded applications of the test item to the intact skin of one rabbit produced no evidence of skin irritation. A single 4-Hour, semi occluded application of the test item to the intact skin of two rabbits produced no evidence of skin irritation.

The test item produced a primary irritation index of 0.0 and was classified as non-irritant to rabbit skin according to the Draize classification scheme. No corrosive effects were noted.

The test item, Reaction mass of AminoPhosphonium salt and BisphenolAF, does not meet the criteria laid down in CLP; Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, relating to the Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures and the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals.
