Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (irritant) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this experiment the test material was found to cause moderate irritation when applied to intact and abraded rabbit skin.
In the area of application no discoloration of the skin was observed.
Within 72 hours after starting the application 2 out of 6 rabbits showed necrosis of the skin at the application site. There was a clear tendency of healing during the following observation period.
The calculated primary irritation index was found to be:
- intact skin: 4.0
- abraded skin: 3.3
Mean irritation index for intact and abraded skin: 3.6

Endpoint conclusion:
adverse effect observed (irritating)

Other effects:
Rinsing the eyes following substance instillation practically abolished the action of the compound.

Effect of rinsing: 29.4

Scaling:

Less than 1 : rinsing increased the effect of the compound

1 : no effect

1.1 to 1.5 : practically no effect

1.6 to 2.0 : little but assessable effect

2.1 to 4.0 : good effect

4.1 to 10 : very good effect

Above 10 : action of the compound practically abolished

Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (irritating to eyes) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this experiment the test material was classified as Category 2.
Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
adverse effect observed (irritating)
