Description of key information
The substance was tested for its skin irritant properties using the three-dimensional human skin model Episkin-SM. The study was performed according to OECD Guideline 439. 10 mg of the test item and 10 µL distilled water were applied topically for 15 minutes. After 42 h post-incubation cytotoxic effects were determined via MTT reduction assay. The mean relative tissue viability (% negative control) was > 50%. The test item is therefore classified as "non-irritant" (EU CLP and UN GHS: No Category).
The substance was tested for its eye irritant properties in 3 New Zealand White rabbits.The study was performed according to OECD Guideline 405. Effects on conjunctivae (redness and swelling) were observed in all animals one hour after application. These signs decreased significantly within 72 hours and were fully reversible within 14 days. According to the findings in this study the substance does not meet the criteria for classification laid down in the EU Classification Labelling and Packaging Regulation (1272/2008/EC).

- The test item showed no irritant effects. The mean relative tissue viability (% negative control) was > 50% (102.3%) after 15 min. treatment and 42 h post incubation.
The controls confirmed the validity of the study. The mean OD550 of the six blank values was < 0.1. The mean absolute OD550 of the three negative control tissues was ≥ 0.6 and ≤ 1.5. The mean relative tissue viability (% negative control) of the positive control was ≤ 40% (6.1%). The maximum standard deviation of viability of replicate tissues of all dose groups was < 18% (1.7% - 6.6%).
If mean tissue viability is > 50% relative to the mean negative control, the test item is classified as non-irritant (EU CLP and UN GHS: No Category).
If mean tissue viability is <= 50% relative to the mean negative control, the test item is classified as irritant (EU CLP and UN GHS: Category 2).
In the in vitro skin irritation test using the EpiSkin human epidermis model 10 mg test item + 5 µL A. dest. were applied topically for 15 minutes. After 42 h post-incubation cytotoxic effects were determined via MTT reduction assay.
The mean relative tissue viability (% negative control) was > 50%.
The test item is therefore classified as "non-irritant" (EU CLP and UN GHS: No Category). - Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: OECD 439
- Conclusions:
- No irritant effects of the substance were observed in this in vitro-study, therefore the test item is classified as "non-irritant" in accordance with UN GHS and EU CLP "No Category".
- Executive summary:
The skin irritation potential of the substance was assessed in an in vitro test using the EPISKIN-Standard Model. Under the given test conditions, the substance showed no irritant effects. The relative mean tissue viability after 15 min. of exposure and 42 h post incubation was >= 50 %. The substance is therefore classified as "non-irritant" in accordance with UN GHS and EU-CLP "No Category".

At 24 and 72 hours and after 7 and 14 days, the eyes were further examined for corneal lesions under UV light after instillation of one drop of 0.01 % Fluorescein-sodium - Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
- 3
- Details on study design:
- Test Item Administration:
The test item was applied as a weight of 0.1 g/animal, the dose specified in the test guidelines for solid test items.
An initial test was performed using one animall.
As neither serious eye damage nor severe effect were observed in the initial test a confirmatory test with two further animals was performed.
About 24 h before the stert of the study both eyes of all animals were examined under UV light for corneal lesions after instillation of one drop of a 0.01% fluorescein-sodium solution. Only animals without ocular abnormalies were used for the study. 0.1 g of the test item was administered once to the conjuntival sac of the left eye of three rabbits. In each case the untreated eye served as control.
24 h after administration the treated eyes were washed out thoroughly with isotonic saline at approx. 37°C. The eyes were also washed out at designated examination times at which discharge was observed or a corneal examination with fluorescein was performed.
Rationale: No study on eye irritation was available. The test item is not classified as corrosive or irritating to skin.

Additional information
Skin irritation: 1 key study available: not irritating
Eye irritation: 1 key study available: not irritating
There is one fully reliable study available on the skin irritancy potential. The substance was tested for its skin irritant properties using the three-dimensional human skin model Episkin-SM. The study was performed according to OECD Guideline 439. 10 mg of the test item and 10 µL distilled water were applied topically for 15 minutes. After 42 h post-incubation cytotoxic effects were determined via MTT reduction assay. The mean relative tissue viability (% negative control) was > 50%. The test item is therefore classified as "non-irritant" (EU CLP and UN GHS: No Category). In an additionally performed skin corrosivity assay using the Epiderm model (according to OECD Guideline 431) the substance proved to be non corrosive.
There is one fully reliable study available on the eye irritancy
potential. The substance was tested for its eye irritant properties in 3
New Zealand White rabbits. The study was performed according to OECD
Guideline 405. Effects on conjunctivae (redness and swelling) were
observed in all animals one hour after application. These signs
decreased significantly within 72 hours and were fully reversible within
14 days.
Justification for classification or non-classification
With reference to the reported results of an in vitro skin irritation study the substance has not to be classified as irritant to the skin according to the criteria laid down in the EU Classification Labelling and Packaging Regulation (1272/2008/EC).
With reference the reported scores and the reversibility of the observed effects the substance does not have to be classified as irritant to the eyes according to the criteria laid down in the EU Classification Labelling and Packaging Regulation (1272/2008/EC).
