Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
moderately irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: expert judgment
Conclusions:
The substance is considered to be a moderate to severe irritant
Executive summary:

Skin irritation has been investigated following 24 hours exposure. Well-defined to moderate erythema and slight to moderate oedema was apparent and of sufficient severity for the substance to be regarded as a dermal irritant.
