Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test material does not meet the criteria for classification as a skin irritant as defined in the EU CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 under the conditions of the study.
Executive summary:

In an OECD 404 Guideline study, 0.5 g of test material moistened with water was applied to the shaved test site on each of six New Zealand white rabbits (male) and covered with a 2 layer gauze patch secured with non-irritating Kendall Curity Standard Porus tape covered with a semiocclusive plastic overwrap secured with non-irritating Kendall Curity Standard Porus tape for 4 hours. After 4 hours the test sites were wiped with a damp cloth. The sites were examined for erythema and edema using Draize method of scoring at 24, 48 and 72 hours, then 168 and 336 hours.

Semi occlusive 4 hour exposure to 0.5g of the test material produced erythema and/or oedema in 5 of the 6 test animals at 24 hours. At 72 hours 5 out of 6 animals still showed signs of erythema but oedema was observed in only one animal . All skin reactions were reversed by the 336 hour observation. The mean erythema score over the 24, 48 and 72 hour period was 1.5 and the mean oedema score over the same period was 0.3.

The test material does not require classification for skin irritation according to EU the CLP Regulation 1272/2008.
