Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The test substance caused slight skin irritation in rabbits, however, as the reactions were weak and thus below the threshold for classification and the conditions chosen were harsher than required by the actual guideline (24 h treatment, occlusive conditions) the test substance is considered non irritating.
