Materials and methods
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- - Principle of test:
Six albino rats were used in this study. The hair was clipped from the back and flanks of each animal. The test material was applied to two areas on each of six animals, one abraded and one unabraded under a 1 x 1 inch 12 ply qauze patch held in place by 1/2 inch adhesive tape applied as an "X" over the patch. The trunk of the animals was then loosely wrapped in an impervious wrap for and exposure period of 4 hours. The wrap was applied loosely enough for the palm of the hand to be inserted between it and the animals back. After 4 hours of exposure, the patches were removed and the resulting reactions evaluated on the basis of the score described ihn the bottom section.
- Short description of test conditions:
Animals were held individually in screen bottom cages and were supplied with food and water ad libitum. During the exposure time the animals were immobilised in stocks.
- Parameters analysed / observed: erythema, edema - GLP compliance:
- no
- Remarks:
- study conducted prior to implementation of GLP

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- In this study, C14-18 alkyldimethyl ammonium methosulfate (89% a.i.) is not a dermal irritant.
- Executive summary:
In a primary dermal irritation study conducted prior to implementation of GLP and OECD guidelines, 6 young adult albino rabbits were dermally exposed to 0.5 g of C14-18 alkyldimethyl ammonium methosulfate (89% a.i.) for 4 hours to intact and abraded skin. Animals then were observed for 3 days. Irritation was scored by the method of Draize after 2, 4, 24, 48 and 72 h.
All edema and erythema scores were 0 at all timepoints on intact and abraded skin.
In this study, C14-18 alkyldimethyl ammonium methosulfate (89% a.i.) is not a dermal irritant.
