Any other information on results incl. tables

Moderate to severe erythema and very slight oedema were observed for up to 72 hours after removal of the dressing. Erythema and oedema had reversed by day 14 and 7, respectively. At the end of the observation period (21 days), 1 animal had still alopecia.

No ulceration or necrosis was observed.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: Directive 67/548/EEC
Conclusions:
Under these experimental conditions and according to directive 67/548/EEC, the tested substance Genamin SH 301 is classified as a skin irritant.
Executive summary:

The potential of Genamin SH 301 to induce skin irritation was assessed in 3 rabbits according to the OECD guideline 404 and in compliance with the principles of Good Laboratory Practice regulations.

A single dose of 0.5 mL undiluted Genamin SH 301 was applied to the skin of the rabbits under a semi-occlusive dressing for a 4-hour exposure period. Skin reactions were observed approximately 0.5/1 hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of the dressing and then on day 7, 14 and 21 in order to observe their reversibility. The mean values of the scores for erythema and oedema were calculated for each animal.

The mean scores over 24, 48 and 72 hours for individual animals were 3.0, 1.3, and 2.0 for erythema and 1.0, 1.0, and 0.7 for edema. No ulceration of necrosis was noted. Erythema and edema had reversed by day 14 and by day 7, respectively.
