- Washing (if done): yes
- Time after start of exposure: 4 h

SCORING SYSTEM:
The skin reaction was assessed according to the numerical scoring system listed in the EEC Commision Directive 92/69/EEC, July 31, 1992 at approximately 1, 24, 48, 72 h, as well as 7 days after the removal of the dressing, gauze patch and test item.

Grading of Skin Reactions:

ERYTHEMA AND ESCHAR FORMATION
No erythema 0
Very slight erythema: 1
Well-defined erythema: 2
Moderate to severe erythema: 3
Severe erythema (beet redness) or eschar formation (injuries in depth preventing erythema) reading: 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 (edges raised approximately 1 mm): 3
Severe oedema (raised more than 1 mm and extending beyond the area of exposure): 4

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The primary skin irritation potential of TS-ED 532 was tested in 3 rabbits by topical semi-occlusive application.
Based on the results, it is concluded that TS-ED 532 is not irritating.
Executive summary:

The primary skin irritation potential of TS-ED 532 was tested in 3 rabbits by topical semi-occlusive application of 0.5 mL TS-ED 532 to clipped skin using a patch. The duration of treatment was 4 h. The scoring of skin reaction was performed at 1, 24, 48 and 72 h, as well as 7 days after removal of the dressing. The mean score was calculated across 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 h after patch removal) for each animal for erythema/eschar grades and for oedema grades, separately.

The mean erythema/eschar score of the 3 animals was 1.33, 1.00 and 1.00 respectively and the mean oedema score was 0.33, 0.33 and 0.00, respectively. 

The application of TS-ED 532 resulted in moderate signs of irritation which included erythema and oedema. These effects were reversible and were no longer evident 7 days after treatment. TS-ED 532 caused no staining of the treated skin and no corrosive effects were observed. No clinical signs of TS-ED 532 related effects were observed.

Overall, TS-ED 532 did not induce significant or irreversible damage to the skin. Hence, TS-ED 532 is considered to be “not irritating” to rabbit skin.
