Test system

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:
other: clipped free
Vehicle:
water
Controls:
no
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): At each test site a quantity of 0.5 g of the test item, moistened sufficiently with 0.5 ml of distilled water to achieve a paste, was introduced under a 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm cotton gauze patch. Each patch was secured in position with a strip of surgical adhesive tape. To prevent the animal interfering with the patches, the trunk of the rabbit was wrapped in an elasticated corset for the duration of the exposure period.

Note:
* The absorption of the test item was not determined.
*The pH of the test item was determined prior to commencement of the study. the pH was for a preparation of 10% w/w aqueous preparation of the test item: 7.3 immediately and 7.6 after 10 minutes.
Duration of treatment / exposure:
- One rabbit initially treated: on this rabbit, 3 suitable sites were selected. One patch was removed at each of three time points: 3 minutes, 1 hours and 4 hours after application.
- Two additional rabbits: 1 site during 4 hours.
Observation period:
1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the removal of the patches
Number of animals:
3 rabbits used
Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: Test item introduced under a 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm cotton gauze patch.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): Not done

EVALUATION OF SKIN REACTIONS
- Erythema and Eschar Formation
* No erythema: 0
* Very slight erythema (barely perceptible): 1
* Well-defined erythema: 2
* Moderate to severe erythema: 3
* Severe erythema (beef redness) to eschar formation preventing grading of erythema: 4
- Oedema Formation
* No oedema: 0
* Very slight oedema (barely perceptible): 1
* Slight oedema (edges of area well-defined by definite raising): 2
* Moderate oedema (raised approximately 1 millimetre): 3
* Severe oedema (raised more than 1 millimetre and extending beyond the area of exposure): 4

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The test item has produced no observation on none of the 3 animals tested and at any time. According the results, the test item will not be classified based on the criteria fixed by the REGULATION (EC) No 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures.
Executive summary:

Introduction.

The study was performed to assess the irritancy potential of the test item to the skin of the New Zealand White rabbit. The method was designed to be compatible with the following:

• OECD Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals No. 404 "Acute Dermal

Irritation/Corrosion" (adopted 24 April 2002)

• Method B4 Acute Toxicity (Skin Irritation) of Commission Regulation (EC)

No. 440/2008

Results.

* 3-minute and 1-hour semi-occluded applications of the test item to the intact skin of one rabbit produced no evidence of skin irritation.

* A single 4-hour, semi-occluded application of the test item to the intact skin of three rabbits produced no evidence of skin irritation.

Conclusion.

The test item has produced no observation on none of the 3 animals tested and at any time. According the results, the test item will not be classified based on the criteria fixed by the REGULATION (EC) No 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures.
