Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test material produced a primary irritation index of 0.0 to rabbit skin according to the Draize classification scheme. No corrosive effects were noted.

The test material did not meet the criteria for classification as irritant or corrosive according to EU labelling regulations. No symbol & risk phrase are required.
Executive summary:

Skin irritation potential of the substance BMS 217947-01 was tested according to EU Test Method B4, Directive 92/69/EEC and OECD Guideline 404. 500 mg of the test substance were diluted in distilled water and applied semi-occlusively on 3 New Zealand White rabbits. The test material produced a primary irritation index of 0.0 (according to the Draize classification scheme) and no corrosive effects were noted. Therefore, it does not meet the cirteria for classification as irritant or corrosive according to the CLP Regulation.
