- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- Topical application elicited very slight erythema in one animal at the 45 minute interval. Erythema increased after the 45 minute interval. At the 24 hour interval, one animal was noted with well-defined erythema and two animals were noted with very slight erythema. At the 48 hour interval, one animal was noted with well-defined erythema and three animals with very slight erythema. Four animals were noted with very slight erythema at the 71 hour interval. Erythema decreased at the Day 7 interval; one animal was noted with very slight erythema. Edema was not noted at any observation point. Desquamation was noted for three animals at the Day 7 interval.
- Other effects:
- There were no animal deaths.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: not classified
- Remarks:
- Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- The skin irritation potential for neodecanoic acid is minimal.
- Executive summary:
Neodecanoic acid was administered via an occluded dermal patch to 6 rabbits at a dose of 0.5 ml neat solution for 4 hours to assess the skin irritation potential. Dermal evaluations occurred at 45 minutes, 24h, 48h, 72h, and 7 days post patch removal. Application sites were graded for erythema, edema, and other signs of dermal irritation according to the Draize method of scoring. Topical application elicited very slight erythema in one animal at the 45 minute interval. Erythema increased after the 45 minute interval. At the 24 hour interval, one animal was noted with well-defined erythema and two animals were noted with very slight erythema. At the 48 hour interval, one animal was noted with well-defined erythema and three animals with very slight erythema. Four animals were noted with very slight erythema at the 71 hour interval. Erythema decreased at the Day 7 interval; one animal was noted with very slight erythema. Edema was not noted at any observation point. Desquamation was noted for three animals at the Day 7 interval. The mean skin irritation scores between 24 and 72 hours were: erythema 0.72 and edema 0.
