- Remarks on result:
- other: abraded skin, six animals
- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- The sum of 24 hour and 72 hour values for erythema and oedema on intact and abraded skin (48 scores) were divided by 24 to give the primary irritation index of the test article. 0 = non-irritant, >0-2 = slight, >2-5 = moderate, >5 = severe.
Very slight erythema was noted in 2 abraded sites at the 24 hour observation. One abraded site also showed very slight oedema at this time. The skin was normal at the 72 hour observation. A primary irritation index of 0.1 was obtained. Test article is therefore considered a slight skin irritant in this report. - Other effects:
- None reported.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: OECD GHS
- Conclusions:
- All readings were 0 at 24 and 72 hours when test material was applied onto intact skin, as reported in a study conducted according to a protocol which is equivalent to current guideline but not compliant with GLP. The result would not trigger classification according to current regulation (EC 1272/2008).
