skin irritation: in vivo
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
31 March 2015 - 11 April 2015
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Justification for type of information:
The in vivo study was performed as a data requirement for a registration in China. In the interest of animal welfare and to minimize any testing likely to produce severe responses in animals, a weight of evidence analysis was performed prior to the start of this in vivo skin irritation study in the rabbit.

TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Charles River France, L’Arbresle Cedex, France
- Age at study initiation: 16 and 17 weeks old
- Weight at study initiation: 3062 - 3380 g
- Housing: Animals were individually housed in labeled cages with perforated floors (Ebeco, Germany, dimensions 67 x 62 x 55 cm) and shelters (Ebeco, Germany, dimensions 40 x 32 x 23 cm).
- Diet: approx 100 grams per day pelleted diet for rabbits (Global Diet 2030 from Harlan Teklad®, Mucedola, Milanese, Italy). Hay and wooden sticks were available during the study period.
- Water: Tap water,ad libitum
- Acclimation period: at least 5 days

Diet, water, bedding and cage enrichment evaluation for contaminants and/or nutrients was performed according to facility standard procedures. There were no findings that could interfere with the study.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS (set conditions)
- Temperature (°C): 18 - 24
- Humidity (%): 40 - 70
- Air changes (per hr): at least 10
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12

Test system

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:
clipped
Controls:
other: Adjacent areas of the untreated skin of each animal
Amount / concentration applied:
Test material:
0.5 grams was applied to skin moistened with 0.5 mL with 50% watery ethanol
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hours
Observation period:
72 hours
Number of animals:
3 males
Details on study design:
Study Design:
The study was performed in a stepwise manner and was started by treatment of a single rabbit (sentinel). The two other animals were treated in a similar manner 8 days later, after considering the degree of skin irritation observed in the first animal. Approximately 24 hours before treatment, the dorsal fur was clipped with electric clippers, exposing an area of approximately 150 square centimeters (10x15 cm). Each animal was treated by dermal application of 0.5 grams of the test substance. The test substance was moistened with 0.5 mL of the vehicle and applied to the skin of one flank, using a metalline patch of 2x3 cm. The patch was mounted on Micropore tape, which was wrapped around the abdomen and secured with Coban elastic bandage. Four hours after the application, the dressing was removed and the skin cleaned of residual test substance using tap water.

Observations:
Mortality/Viability: Twice daily.
Toxicity: At least once daily.
Body Weight: Day of treatment (prior to application) and after the final observation.
The skin reactions were assessed at approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the removal of the dressings and test substance.
No histopathology was performed.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
A primary skin irritation study was performed according to OECD guideline 404 and EU method B.4 and according to GLP principles. Based on the results URALAC P 1920C is not classified for skin irritation according to GHS and CLP criteria.
Executive summary:

Three male rabbits were exposed in a step-wise manner to URALAC P 1920C for 4 hours using a semi-occlusive dressing, according to OECD 404 test guideline and GLP principles. This in vivo study was performed as a data requirement for a registration in China. No skin irritation was caused by URALAC P 1920C at any point during the experiment. There was no evidence of a corrosive effect on the skin. No staining of the treated skin by the test substance was observed. No symptoms of systemic toxicity were observed in the animals during the test period and no mortality occurred. Based on these results it is concluded that URALAC P 1920C is not irritating to skin and no classification is needed according to EC regulation 1272/2008.
