Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: OECD GHS
Executive summary:

A well-conducted Acute Dermal Irritation/ Corrosion test (OECD 404) was performed on rabbits with the test substance. Under the conditions of the test no signs of skin irritation could be observed 24, 48 and 72 hours after exposure (4 hours). There were no systemic intolerance reactions.
