Remarks:
Corn Oil
Controls:
yes, concurrent no treatment
Amount / concentration applied:
0.5g of test item moistened completely with 0.8ml vehicle
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hours
Observation period:
The skin sites were examined 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of patches.
Number of animals:
3
Details on study design:
0.5g of the test item was applied uniformly to the gauze patch which was a non-irritating adhesive type. The treated patch was placed on the right side of the clipped area and then covered by medical film. All animals were wrapped using elastic bandage and medical tape to form a semiocclusive dressing which gave was good contact with the skin and prevented ingestion or inhalation of the test item. The left side was considered a control. Patches were removed after 4 hours. The residual test item was gently wiped off by cotton moistened with tepid water.
The skin sites were examined 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of patches for signs of skin reaction and symptoms. Dermal reactions for erythema /eschar or oedema of test sites of each animal were scored and recorded. Other local reactions and systemic side reactions were also described and recorded. Mean scores were calculated. The test item was classified according to GHS criteria for Acute Dermal Irritation / Corrosion.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Methyl iodouracil did not cause an irritation reaction in rabbits and was classified as 'unclassified' according to GHS classification criteria for skin irritation.
Executive summary:

The study was performed to assess the acute dermal irritation/corrosion of Methyl iodourcil in New Zealand rabbits. The method was designed to be in accordance with the guidelines for the testing of chemicals 'Acute Dermal Irritation/Corrosion' (404) published by the Ministry of Environmental Protection of People's Republic of China in the year 2013. 


Three male rabbits were used for the study. A quantity of 0.5g of the test item was applied to the right side of back skin of each animal for an exposure period of 4 hours. The untreated skin on the left back area of the animal served as the control. Clinical signs were performed once daily throughout the study. The skin sites of each animal for signs of erythema/eschar and oedema were all recorded immediately, and 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal. All local toxic effects on skin as well as systemic toxicity were also fully described and recorded. Dermal reactions (erythema/eschar and oedema of test sites were scored at approximately 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal. Mean scores of erythema/eschar or oedema at 24, 48 and 72 hours were calculated for tested skins after patch removal. Individual animal body weights were recorded on the day of dosing and on the completion of fiinal observations.


No abnormal signs or symptoms were observed in any animal throuhout the course of the test. The scores of erythema/eschar and oedema for all animals at approximately 24, 48 and 72 hours were all 0 after patch removal. All animals showed expected gain in bodyweight during the study. 


Based on the above results, Methyl iodourcil was considered to have no irritant effects on the skin of rabbits was classified as 'unclassified' according to GHS classification.
