Irritant / corrosive response data:
Combined irritation index was 1.73.
One week after the patch removal two animals were symptom-free. In the third case very slight erythema was observed and peeling still lasted.
Two weeks after the patch removal every animal was sympom-free.
Other effects:
During the study the behaviour and general state of animals were normal.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
moderately irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
In conclusion the substance applied to the rabbit's skin proved to be "moderately irritant" according to the observed irritation symptoms.
The observed skin irritation symptoms proved to be reversible alterations.
