Irritant / corrosive response data:
The test item caused moderate to severe erythema and edema to the intact skin after a treatment period of 3 minutes and 4h. After 4h treatment the test material procuced epidermal necrosis indivative of corrosivity to the skin.

Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Based on the study results the test material has to be considered as corrosive to skin.
Executive summary:

In an OECD TG 404 study, 0.5 ml the test material "Noram O" (oleylamine), a light brown, translucient and pasty liquid (purity 97.7%), was applied semi-occlusively for 3 minutes (left flank) and 4 hours (right flank) to the shaved skin of one New Zealand White Rabbit. The substance was applied as delivered by the sponsor onto a 6 cm2gauze pad, which was then applied to the right flank. The skin was examined 1 hour, 24, and 48 hours after removal of the dressing. Following the 3 minute exposure moderate to severe erythema and edema but no necrosis were observed. Following 4 hour exposure average Draize scores after 24 hours were 4.0 for erythema and 4.0 for oedema. At the same time necrosis was noted and the study was terminated for humane reasons.
