Results

The test item was tested for its acute skin irritation on the shaved back skin of three rabbits (Kleinrussen, Chbb:HM). The contact time under semiocclusive conditions amounts to four hours. [Method: Off. J. Europ. Commun. L 251, 27, 106-108 (1984) and OECD-Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals No 404]. Strong erythema and edema were observed 1-72 hours after the exposition. At two animals scarring was observed at the application side 21 days after the exposure. The substance is classified as corrosive to the skin.
