Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

I

Test system

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:
clipped
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Remarks:
None
Controls:
no
Amount / concentration applied:
0.5 ml
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 h
Observation period:
72h - Approximately one hour following the removal of the patches, and 24, 48 and 72 hours later, the test sites were examined for evidence of primary irritation
Number of animals:
3
Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: dorsal flank area
- % coverage: not specified - area of 2.5cm x 2.5cm tested
- Type of wrap if used:A quantity of 0.5 ml of the test material was introduced under a 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm cotton gauze patch and placed in position on the clipped skin. The patch was secured in position with a strip of surgical adhesive tape (BLEN DERM: approximate size 2.5 cm x 4.0 cm). To prevent the animals interfering with the patches, the trunk of each rabbit was wrapped in an elasticated corset (TUBIGRIP)

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): any residual test material removed by gentle swabbing with cotton wool soaked with 74% ethanol.
- Time after start of exposure: 4h

SCORING SYSTEM:
The test sites were scored according to the scale from Draize J H, (1977) "Dermal and Eye Toxicity Tests" In: Principles and Procedures for Evaluating the Toxicity of Household Substances, National Academy of Sciences, Washington DC p.31.
