Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified as skin irritant according to the CLP Regulation
Conclusions:
Non irritating.
Executive summary:

Method

The skin irritation potential was tested in New Zealand White rabbits. The procedure used are similar to those described in the OECD Guidelines 404.

Results

Slight erythema was observed in one rabbit. The effect is reversible within 72 hours.

Conclusion

Mean values from gradings at 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal were lower than 2.3 in all animals for both erythema/eschar and oedema reactions (in both intact and abraded skin).

In conclusion, the test item can be classified as NON irritating, according to the CLP (EC 1272/2008) Regulation.
