- Executive summary:
Method:
Eye irritation potential of test substance was tested according to OECD guideline 405. Test substance was applied to the eye of 3 rabbits. Signs of irritation on iris, cornea, and conjunctivae were scored at 24, 48 and 72 h after application. Observations were continued up to day 8.
Results:
No cornea opacity was noted. Signs on iris could not be seen in 2/3 rabbits at the 24 h observation point due to staining; however, scores were 0 at the following observation times. Conjunctivae redness and chemosis were noted at 24, 48 and 72; a mean score of 1.3 was seen in 3/3 and 2/3 rabbits for redness and chemosis, respectively. Such signs were fully reversible within 8 days. Initial irritation was likely due to mechanical effects of the powder in treated eye.

- Endpoint conclusion:

Additional information
No data on target substance was available, thus a read across approach on Similar Substance 01 was used. Details on the read across are available in section 13.
Skin:
The potential of test substance to cause skin irritation was assessed in rabbits according to OECD guideline 404. No irritation response was seen upon a single topical application of 0.5 g of test substance to the intact skin of 3 rabbits for 4 hours under semiocclusive conditions. No signs of oedema were noted; slight signs of erythema were noted, being fully reversible within 48 hours.
Eye:
The potential of test substance to cause eye irritation was assessed in rabbits according to OECD guideline 405. Conjunctival reactions (reddening and swelling) were observable in all animals, with a tendency to decrease in the 24-72 h interval. As the eye was exposed to bulk volume (powder) of test substance, such initial irritation might be caused by mechanical effects. However, such effects were fully reversible within 8 days. No other effects were reported.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Skin Irritation
According to the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008), skin corrosion means the production of irreversible damage to the skin, and skin irritation means the production of reversible damage to the skin following the application of a test substance for up to 4 hours.
A substance has to be classified as category 1 (corrosive) if it produces destruction of skin tissue, namely, visible necrosis through the epidermis and into the dermis, in at least 1 tested animal after exposure up to a 4 hour duration.
A substance has to be classified as category 2 (irritant) if shows:
(1) Mean value of ≥ 2.3 - ≤ 4.0 for erythema/ eschar or for oedema in at least 2 of 3 tested animals from gradings at 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal or, if reactions are delayed, from grades on 3 consecutive days after the onset of skin reactions; or
(2) Inflammation that persists to the end of the observation period normally 14 days in at least 2 animals, particularly taking into account alopecia (limited area), hyperkeratosis, hyperplasia, and scaling; or
(3) In some cases where there is pronounced variability of response among animals, with very definite positive effects related to chemical exposure in a single animal but less than the criteria above.
No oedema was noted and signs of erythema were slight and reversible, thus no classification applied.
Eye Irritation
According to the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008), serious eye damage means the production of tissue damage in the eye, or serious physical decay of vision, following application of a test substance to the anterior surface of the eye, which is not fully reversible within 21 days of application .
Eye irritation means the production of changes in the eye following the application of test substance to the anterior surface of the eye, which are fully reversible within 21 days of application.
A substance has to be classified as category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye), If, when applied to the eye of an animal, a substance produces:
- At least in one animal effects on the cornea, iris or conjunctiva that are not expected to reverse or have not fully reversed within an observation period of normally 21 days; and/ or
- At least in 2 of 3 tested animals, a positive response of:
- Corneal opacity ≥ 3 and/or
- Iritis > 1.5 calculated as the mean scores following grading at 24, 48 and 72 hours after installation of the test material.
A substance has to be classified as category 2 (irritating to eye) if, when applied to the eye of an animal, a substance produces:
at least in 2 of 3 tested animals, a positive response of:
- corneal opacity ≥ 1 and/or
- iritis ≥ 1, and/or
- conjunctival redness ≥ 2 and/or
- conjunctival oedema (chemosis) ≥ 2
calculated as the mean scores following grading at 24, 48 and 72 hours after installation of test material, and which fully reverses within an observation period of 21 days.
In case 6 rabbits are used, a response above the threshold in 4 of 6 rabbits implies a classification in category 2.
As irritation effects, limited to conjunctiva, were below the threshold of classification and recovered within 8 days, no classification is applied.
