Irritant / corrosive response data:
A well defined erythema associated with a very slight oedema was noted on the treated area, at the
reading time one hour. The oedematous reactions were totally reversible between D1 and D2, and the
erythematous reactions were totally reversible between D2 and D6.
On the cutaneous structure, a slight dryness was noted on the treated area, from D3 in two animals.
The skin recovered a normal aspect between D6 and D7.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
study cannot be used for classification
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
The results obtained, under these experimental conditions, enable to conclude that the test item
LCE08086, according to the scales of interpretation retained:
- is slightly irritant to skin (PSi = 0.8) according to the classification established in the Journal
Officiel de la République Française dated February 21st, 1982,
- and, must not be classified, according to the criteria for classification, packaging and labelling of
dangerous substances and preparations in compliance with the E.E.C. Directives 67/548, 2001/59 and
99/45. No symbol and risk phrases are required.
In accordance with the Globally Harmonized System (COM(2007)355 final), the test item must not be
classified in category 2 “irritant”. No signal word and hazard statement are required.
Executive summary:

The test item LCE08086 was applied, as supplied, at the dose of 0.5 mL, under semi-occlusive dressing during 4 hours on an undamaged skin area of three rabbits. The experimental protocol was established from the O.E.C.D. guideline n° 404 dated April 24th, 2002 and the test method B.4 of the directive n° 2004/73/EC. A well defined erythema associated with a very slight oedema was noted on the treated area, at the reading time one hour. The oedematous reactions were totally reversible between D1 and D2, and the erythematous reactions were totally reversible between D2 and D6. On the cutaneous structure, a slight dryness was noted on the treated area, from D3 in two animals. The skin recovered a normal aspect between D6 and D7. The results obtained, in these experimental conditions, enable to conclude that the test item LCE08086 must not be classified, according to the criteria for classification, packaging and labelling of dangerous substances and preparations in compliance with the E.E.C. Directives 67/548, 2001/59 and 99/45. No symbol and risk phrases are required. In accordance with the Globally Harmonized System (COM(2007)355 final), the test item must not be classified in category 2 “irritant”. No signal word and hazard statement are required.
