Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Conclusions:
In this study, mean erythema score and mean edema score are equal to 0 : 1,2,4-triazole is not a skin irritant.
Executive summary:

A non GLP Acute Dermal Irritation / Corrosion test comparable to OECD 404 guideline was carried out with 1,2,4 -triazole. The test substance was applied undiluted on a occlusive patch on hairless skin on ears. The test material induced no erythema and no edema on two animals.

Under the experimental conditions, the test substance is not irritant and is not classified according to regulation EC no.1272/2008 (CLP).
