- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- - Irritation:
Four hours exposure to 0.5 mL of the test item resulted in moderate to severe or severe erythema and moderate to severe oedema in the treated skin-areas of the three rabbits. The skin irritation had resolved within 14 days after exposure in one animal and within 21 days in the two remaining animals. Reduced flexibility and/or fissuring of the skin, scaliness and bald skin were noted among the animals between 48 hours and termination (after 14 or 21 days).
- Corrosion
There was no evidence of a corrosive effect on the skin. - Other effects:
- - Colouration
On the skin of all animals, sticky remnants of the test substance were present on day 1 and dry remnants were present from day 2 onwards until day 4.
- Toxicity / Mortality
No symptoms of systemic toxicity were observed in the animals during the test period and no test substance related mortality occured.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 2 (irritant) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- No evidence of full thickness destruction of the skin or scar tissue was observed during the observation period, indicating that no corrosion of the skin had occured by dermal application of the test substance to intact rabbit skin.
- Executive summary:
Tert-butyl peroxyneodecanoate (75 % in solvent) was tested in a primary skin irritation/corrosion study in the rabbit (4 -hour semi-occlusive application) according to EU method B.4 and the OECD guideline no. 404. Three rabbits were exposed to 0.5 mL of the test item, applied onto clipped skin for 4 hours using a semi-occlusive dressing. Observations were made 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours and 7, 14 and/or 21 days after exposure.
Exposure to the test item resulted in moderate to severe erythema and moderate to severe oedema in the treated skin-areas of the three rabbits
with mean erythema score of 2.8 and mean edema score of 2.7. The skin irritation had resolved within 14 days after exposure in one animal and within 21 days in the two remaining animals. Reduced flexibility and/or fissuring of the skin, scaliness and bald skin were noted among the animals between 48 hours and termination (after 14 or 21 days). On the skin of all animals, sticky remnants of the test substance were present on day 1 and dry remnants were present from day 2 onwards until day 4.
No evidence of full thickness destruction of the skin or scar tissue was observed during the observation period, indicating that no corrosion of the skin had occured by dermal application of the test substance to intact rabbit skin.
