Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not irritating
Conclusions:
The primary skin irritant / Corrosion effects was on rabbits (Inner surface of the ears) tested. The overall score for erythema and edema formation after 7 days was 0.0 Following the EC Guideline for the Classification and Labeling of Hazardous Substances and Preparations (July 1983), the test chemical can to be considered as non-irritating to the skin.
Executive summary:

The dermal irritation potential of the test chemical was assessed in New Zealand White rabbits.2 Albino rabbits (white New Zealand) of both sexes were used with a body weight of about 2.5 to 3.4 kg. The animals were conventionally kept in single cages under standardized conditions.

For the treatment of each animal, 0.5 g of the test sample was applied to a pulp pad and fixed to the hairless inside of a rabbit of 2 rabbits by means of plaster bandages. To better support the patch, a Stilck pulp was formed into a roll and tied into the ear. The exposure duration was 24 hours. Then the test sample was washed off with soap and water. Erythema and edema were observed and scored at 0, 24,48, 72 hours and 7, 14 days. The numerical recording of the effects was made according to DRAIZE.

The primary skin irritant / Corrosion effects was on rabbits (Inner surface of the ears) tested.
