Description of key information
Skin irritation:
A single occlusive application of test item to intact and abraded rabbit skin for 24 hours elicited well-defined to moderate dermal reactions and is classified as moderate irritant.
Eye irritation:
Instillation of test item into rabbit eye elicited severe ocular lesions. Due to the severity of the reaction no further animals were exposure to the test item.

- Executive summary:
The study was performed to assess the skin irritation potential of the test item to the rabbit. The method followed in Code of Federal Regulations, Title 16, Section 1500.41.
Six rabbits were each administered a dermal dose of 0.5 ml of test substance to one intact and one abraded skin site and observed for three days.
A single occlusive application on test item to intact and abraded rabbit skin for 24 hours elicited well-defined to moderate dermal reactions.

- Details on study design:
- The eye were examined prior to instillation of the test substance to ensure that there was no pre-existing corneal damage, iridial or conjunctival inflammation.
One animal was treated in advance of the others, to ensure that if severe response was produced. No further animals would be exposed.
A 0.1 mL amount of the test substance was placed into the everted lid of one eye.
The eyelids were then gently held together for one second before releasing. The contralateral eye reminded untreated. - Irritation parameter:

- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- A corneal opacity developed one day after instillation. (Dulling and stripping of the epithelial cells were seen one hour after installation).
Iridial inflammation was observed one hour after instillation and 24 hours after installation has developed to Grade 2.
A beefy red colouration of the conjunctive accompanied by considerable swelling with partial eversion of the eyelids was observed. Blanching was observed in the nictating membrane.
Due to the severity of the reaction no further animals were exposure to the test item. - Conclusions:
- Instillation of test item into rabbit eye elicited severe ocular lesions.
Due to the severity of the reaction no further animals were exposure to the test item. - Executive summary:
The study was performed to assess the eye irritation potential of the rabbit. The method followed was in EEC methods for the determination of toxicity, Directive 84/449/EEC, part B, Method B.5. Acute toxicity (eye irritation).
One rabbit was administered a single ocular dose of 0.1 mL of the test item and observed for 21 days after instillation.
A single instillation of the test item into eye of the rabbit elicited severe ocular lesions.
In view of the severity of the ocular reactions seen no further testing was performed.

Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
Skin irritation/corrosion:
Mean scores at 24, 48 & 72 hours for erythema were >2.3 in at least 2 of 3 tested animals (actual value: mean scores at 24/72h for erythema were 2.5 in 4 of 6 tested animals).
Serious eye damage/eye irritation:
Mean scores at 24, 48 & 72 hours for corneal opacity were >1 (actual value 1), for iris were >1 (actual value 1.3), for conjunctival redness were >2 (actual value 2.3) and for chemosis were >2 (actual value 2).
Therefore in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 Table 3.2.2 & 3.3.2, this substance should be classified as Skin irritation category 2 and Eye irritation category 2.
