Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Pink coloration was noted in all Human skin model surfaces treated during 1 hour.
3 minutes and 1 hour after the test item application, the mean percent viability of the epidermis skins treated with the test item were 104.55% (considered as 100%) and 92.64%, versus 5.24% and 0.42%, respectively, with the positive control item (potassium hydroxide 8N).
In accordance with the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, the results obtained under these experimental conditions enable to conclude that the test item HEMATOXYLIN HPL (CAS 517-28-2) does not have to be classified in Category 1 “Corrosive”.
Executive summary:

In accordance with the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, the results obtained under these experimental conditions enable to conclude that the test item HEMATOXYLIN HPL (CAS 517-28-2) does not have to be classified in Category 1 “Corrosive”.
