- Controls:
- no

- The test item was applied as a weight of 0.5 g/animal, the dose specified in the test guidelines for
solid test items. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 4 hours
- Observation period:
- 14 days
- Number of animals:
- 3 males
- Details on study design:
- Purpose:
The purpose of this primary skin irritation study was to assess the irritation potential when a single dose of Acid Yellow RN 2903 was placed on the skin of rabbits for approximately four hours. This study should provide a rational basis for risk assessment in man as skin contact is one of the possible routes of human exposure.
Preparation of Dose Formulations:
The test item was used as delivered by the Sponsor and was moistened with approximately 0.5 mL of purified water before application. The pH of the test item was specified by the Sponsor as 7.5 to 8.5 at 10 g/L. According to Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, B.4. and OECD Guidelines 404, a test item does not need to be tested if the pH-value is less than 2 or greater than 11.5, owing to its predictable corrosive properties.
Test Item Administration:
The test item was applied as a weight of 0.5 g/animal, the dose specified in the test guidelines for solid test items.
Four days before treatment, the left flank was clipped with an electric clipper, exposing an area of approximately 100 cm2 (10 cm x 10 cm). The skin of the animals was examined one day before treatment and regrown fur of all animals was clipped again. On the day of treatment, 0.5 g of the test item was moistened with approximately 0.5 mL purified water and placed on a surgical gauze patch (ca. 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm). The patch was held in contact with the skin by means of an adhesive hypoallergenic aerated semi-occlusive dressing and a restrainer bandage wrapped around the trunk. The duration of treatment was 4 hours. Then the dressing was removed and the skin was flushed with lukewarm tap water to clean the application site so that any reactions were clearly visible at that time.
A single animal was treated first. As neither a corrosive effect nor a severe irritant effect was observed after the 4-hour exposure, the test was completed using the two remaining animals for an exposure period of four hours. Rationale: The application form and dose were used to detect an irritating potential of the test item applied.
Observations:
Viability / Mortality: Daily from acclimatization of the animals to the termination of test.
Clinical Signs (systemic): Daily from acclimatization of the animals to the termination of test.
Body Weights: At start of acclimatization, on the day of application and at termination of observation.
Pathology:
Necropsy: The animals were not sacrificed. On completion of the observation period all animals were reallocated to the eye irritation study (Harlan Laboratories Study D04516).
Data Compilation:
Viability/mortality was recorded on data sheets.
Body weights were recorded on-line with the ToxControl Computer System.
Clinical signs and skin reactions were compiled into the ToxControl Computer System during recording.
The ToxControl Computer System had been licenced for Harlan Laboratories Ltd. and validated with respect to data collection, storage and retrievability.
Statistical Analysis:
No statistical analysis was performed.
Determination of Skin Irritating Potential:
See attached Appendix 1 and 2 for scoring system)
Observation and Scoring: The skin reaction was assessed according to the numerical scoring system listed in the Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, B.4, at approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours, as well as 7, 10 and 14 days after exposure (removal of the dressing, gauze patch and test item). To allow further examination of the test site all animals were re-clipped on completion of the 7, 10 and 14 days examination.
Data was summarized in tabular form, showing for each animal the irritation scores for erythema and oedema at all measurement intervals. Any lesions were described, including the degree and nature of irritation, corrosion or any other toxic effects observed, and their reversibility.
The mean score was calculated separately for each animal across 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal) for erythema/eschar grades and for oedema grades, respectively. An animal is positive for irritation when the mean score is 2.3 or greater. The test is positive for irritation when at least 2 animals are positive for the same endpoint (erythema/eschar or oedema).

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Based on the referred classification criteria (Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2008),
Acid Yellow RN 2903 is not classified with respect to skin irritation in rabbits. - Executive summary:
The primary skin irritation potential of Acid Yellow RN 2903 was investigated according to OECD test guideline No. 404 and Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, B.4. The test item was applied by topical semi-occlusive application of 0.5 g to the intact skin of the left flank of each of three young adult New Zealand White rabbits. The duration of treatment was four hours. The scoring of skin reactions was performed 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours, as well as 7, 10 and 14 days after removal of the dressing.
The mean score was calculated separately for each animal across 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal) for erythema/eschar grades and for oedema grades, respectively.
The individual mean erythema/eschar and oedema scores of the three animals were 0.00, 0.00 and 0.00, respectively. No clinical signs were observed during the course of the study. Slight yellow staining produced by the test item were observed in all animals from the 24-hour reading up to test day 14.
Based on the referred classification criteria (Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 of the European
Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2008), Acid Yellow RN 2903 is not classified with respect to skin irritation in rabbits.
