Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test substance "PREDNISOLONE", assigned to Category 2 (weak acids and bases), did not cause corrosion of the biobarrier in time to the classification according to UN Packing Trasportation Group. On the basis of the results, interpreted according to OECD N° 435 of July 19, 2006, the test substance "PREDNISOLONE" is classified as NOT CORROSIVE.
