Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
PG-ds is not irritating to the skin
Executive summary:

In a primary dermal irritation study, one New Zealand White rabbit was dermally exposed to 0.5g of PG-ds (potassium (R)-[(3-ethoxy-1-methyl-3-oxoprop-1-enyl)amino]phenylacetate) moistened with distilled water for 4 hours (under semi-occlusive conditions). Animals then were observed for 72 hours. Irritation was scored by the method of OECD.

 

Well defined erythema and slight oedema were observed in the treated skin-area after a four hour exposure to FG-KZE (batch 989 A). The skin irritation had resolved within 72 hours after exposure. The mean scores at 24, 48 and 72 hours are:

- erythema: 1

- edema: 0.3

 

In this study, PG-ds (potassium (R)-[(3-ethoxy-1-methyl-3-oxoprop-1-enyl)amino]phenylacetate) is

not a dermal irritant and is not classified according to EU criteria.
