Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Any other information on results incl. tables

Signs of irritation during induction:

reactions of grade 2 were noted at 14 test skin sites 1 hr after patch removal and 8 of grade 1 at 24 hr.

However, large areas of pale grey/green-coloured necrosis prevented accurate evaluation of erythema during induction at several skin sites at both the 1 -hr and 24 -hr observations. Other adverse dermal reactions noted were small scattered areas of pale grey/green necrosis, bleeding, small superficial scabs, hardened dark brown-coloured scabs, dried blood and desquamation.

Evidence of sensitisation of each challenge concentration: 1/18

One test group animal was found dead on day 23 and another was killed for humane reasons on day 23 owing to rectal prolapse. The absence of these animals was considered not to affect the integrity of the study.

Small scattered areas of dermal necrosis, accompanied by thickening of the skin, were noted at the test material challenge site of one control group animal at the 24 and 48 hr observations. A small scab was also noted at the test material site of one other control animal at these times. These reactions were attributed to irritancy of the test material.

No skin reaction were noted at the test material challenge sites of any other test or control group animal or at any vehicle control sites of the test and control group animals.

Bodyweight gains of animal in the test group were comparable to those in the control group.
