Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 404 (Acute Dermal Irritation / Corrosion)
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
no 48 h observation time point, 24 h exposure time, intact and abraded skin tested

Any other information on results incl. tables

Slight erythema and edema were observed at 24 hours after treatment at the abraded sites. No erythema or edema were noted on the intact skin sites at 24 and 72 hours after treatment. No signs of erythema or edema were visibile at 72 hours at the abraded sites and the study was terminated.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
No erythema or edema were noted on the intact skin sites at 24 and 72 hours after treatment.
Executive summary:

The skin irritation potential of the test substance TBBS was evaluated in a skin irritation study with six New Zealand albino male and female rabbits (Monsanto Co. 1982). The test substance (500 mg) moistened with saline was applied under occlusive dressings to clipped intact and abraded skin of 6 New Zealand albino rabbits for 24 hours.

Slight erythema and edema were observed at 24 hours after treatment at the abraded sites. No erythema or edema were noted on the intact skin sites at 24 and 72 hours after treatment. No signs of erythema or edema were visibile at 72 hours at the abraded sites and the study was terminated.
