Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: EU: according to European Council Directive 67/548/EEC
Conclusions:
According to the study, the test item H12MDU showed no irritant effect on the skin of female rabbits. Classification: not irritating
Executive summary:

To test the acute skin irritant effect the test item H12MDU was applied to the shaven dorsal skin of rabbits. The product was administered undiluted and the time of exposure in the patch test was 4 hours. According to the study, the test item H12MDU showed no irritant effect on the skin of female rabbits.
