Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 2 (irritant)
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- The acute dermal irritation test in rabbits showed that Monochloressigsäureethylester has to be considered as irritant.
- Executive summary:
The acute dermal irritation test was performed to 3 Albino New Zealand rabbits (in vivo) according to OECD Guideline 404. The fur was removed from the area of about 25 cm2 in the dorsal part of the trunk, 24 hours before the start of the test. A plaster with a cellulose pad was fixed to the prepared, intact area of skin of each animal. 0.5 mL undiluted substance was applied under this plaster. After a reaction time of 4 hours, under semi-occlusive conditions, the results were determined 30 to 60 minutes, 24, 48 and 72 hours and 7, 14 and 21 days after removal of the plaster.
30 minutes to 14 days after removing the patch the animals showed slight to severe erythema, as well as hardly noticeable up to severe oedema up to 7 days afterwards. After 7 to 14 days the skin surface was dry, brittle and, in one animal, finely scaled. 21 days after removal of the patch, 2 animals showed very slight erythema and a dry, brittlle skin surface. Otherwise the irritation symptoms were to a considerable extent reversible. The acute dermal irritation test in rabbits showed that Monochloressigsäureethylester has to be considered as irritant.
