Additional information
Skin irritation:
The skin irritating/corrosive potential of the test item was analysed in rabbits similar to OECD guideline 404 (BASF AG, 1972). A 2.5 x 2.5 cm cloth coated in the test substance was applied to the back of two rabbits for 1, 5, 15 min and 20 h (occlusive dressing). Animals were observed for the occurence of skin lesions for eight days and the severity noted 1 hour, 24 hours and 8 days following substance application. The following observations were made:
1 min exposure: slight erythema in both animals the next day; no abnormalities were detected in one animal 8 days after substance application, whereas strong scale formation was present in the other rabbit at day 8 post-exposure.
5 min exposure: moderate to strong erythema was observed in one rabbit one hour following treatment; soft, red-brownish necrosis was visible 24 h post-exposure; hard, leather-like necrosis was observed in this animal 8 days later; the other rabbit showed slight erythema and edema 24 h post-exposure; 8 days later, slight erythema was still visible and strong scale formation was present
15 min exposure: strong, leather-like, hard necrosis in one animal and soft, anemic, parchmenty necrosis in the second rabbit 24 h following substance application; these lesions were not reversible until the end of the observation period (day 8), when leather-like necrosis was present in both animals
20 h exposure: hard, leather-like, overall necrosis in both animals 24 h following substance application; lesions were not reversible and the formation of transverse folds was additionally visible 8 days after substance application.
In summary, after a 5-min exposure to the test item erythema but no necrosis was seen on the skin of one rabbit at the 1 hour reading. Subsequent to an exposure of >= 15 min full thickness necrosis was observed in all test animals. These results demonstrate that the substance fulfills the classification criteria for skin corrosion, category 1B according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP).
Eye irritation:
The eye irritating/corrosive potential of the test item was analysed in rabbits similar to OECD guideline 405 (BASF AG, 1972).
The right eyes of two rabbits were treated with 50 µl test substance; the substance was not washed out the following day. The conjunctivae, iris and cornea were observed for 8 days and changes noted after 24, 48, 72 h and 8 days. Both animals showed a milky opacity of the cornea, iritis and severe chemosis over the entire course of the experiment. Reddening of the conjunctivae was not assessable due to severe other lesions. Furthermore, necrosis and staphylom formation were observed. The mean cornea score (after 24, 48 and 72 h; both rabbits) was 3, the iris score 2 and the chemosis score 3. Lesions were not fully reversible within 8 days (conjunctivae score = 2, Iris score = 2 and chemosis score = 2).
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the results of experimental studies and according to criteria of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP) the registered substance is classified and labelled as follows:
Skin corrosion Cat 1B, H314 - causes severe skin burns and eye damage.
