Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:
shaved
Vehicle:
water
Controls:
not required
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5 g

VEHICLE
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.4 ml
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 h
Observation period:
1, 24, 48 and 72 hours
Number of animals:
3
Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: 2.5x2.5 cm
- Type of wrap: before applilcation, an Elizabeth collar was installed. The test substance (moistened with water) was placed on a patch (lint cloth) and placed on application area. The patch was fixed with a non-woven adhesive bandage and occluded by the adhesive elastic bandage.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): Cleaned with absorbent cotton moisturised with lukewarm water. Then the Elizabeth collar was removed.
- Time after start of exposure: 4 hours

SCORING SYSTEM: According to OECD 404 for erythema and eschar formation and oedema formation. In addition the Primary Irritation Index (PII) was calculated according to Draize.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
E-C104 had no irritation or corrosion potential on the rabbit skin under the conditions of this study (OECD 404).
Executive summary:

The acute dermal irritation or corrosion potential of E-C104 was assessed in three male New Zealand White rabbits according to OECD test guideline 404. The test substance (0.5 g) was moistened with 0.4 ml of vehicle. As a result of the 4 -hour exposure (semi-occluded application) no skin reactions were observed in any animal at any observation time. Therefore, primary irritation index (PII) was 0 and evaluated as not irritating. In conclusion, E-C104 had no irritation or corrosion potential on the rabbit skin under the conditions of the study.
