Additional information
There are valid in vivo data available for the assessment of the skin and eye irritation potential of the test substance.
Skin
The potential of the test substance to cause acute dermal irritation or corrosion was assessed in vivo in rabbits according to OECD guideline 404. In this study the test article did not show any irritative/corrosive potential by a single topical application of 0.5 g of the test substance to the intact skin of 3 White New Zeland rabbits for 4 hours under semiocclusive conditions. The average score (24, 48 and 72 hours) for irritation was calculated to be 0.0 for erythema and 0.0 for edema.
Eye
The potential of the test substance to cause eye irritation or corrosion was assessed in 3 rabbits according to OECD guideline 405. The test substance did not show any irritative/corrosive potential after 24h after exposure. Irritation score was calculate for cornea (0.0), iris (0.0) conjunctivae (0.0) and discharge (0.0).
Respiratory system
no information available.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Under Regulation 1272/2008 a substance is classified as skin irritant Cat. 2 if:
1) Mean value of ≥ 2,3 - ≤ 4,0 for erythema/ eschar or for oedema in at least 2 of 3 tested animals from gradings at 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal or, if reactions are delayed, from grades on 3 consecutive days after the onset of skin reactions; or
2)Inflammation that persists to the end of the observation period normally 14 days in at least 2 animals, particularly taking into account alopecia (limited area), hyperkeratosis, hyperplasia, and scaling; or
3) In some cases where there is pronounced variability of response among animals, with very definite positive effects related to chemical exposure in a single animal but less than the criteria above.
Mean values at 24, 48 and 72h for oedema or erythema are zero for all animals, therefore the test substance is not classified as skin irritant.
Under Regulation 1272/2008 a substance is classified as eye irritant Cat. 2 if it is presentat least in 2 of 3 tested animals, a positive response of
1) corneal opacity ≥ 1 and/or
2) iritis ≥ 1, and/or
3) conjunctival redness ≥ 2 and/or
4) conjunctival oedema (chemosis) ≥ 2
calculated as the mean scores following grading at 24, 48 and 72 hours after installation of the test material, and which fully reverses within an observation period of 21 days.
All the scores calculated as mean value at 24, 48 and 72h for the test substances for all tested animals are zero therefore the substance is not classified as eye irritant.
