Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item did not induce any signs of irritation on rat skin within the experimental period of 12 days. During this period, every 24 h, 100 mg of the test substance were occlusively applied to clipped rat skin. The other days, the substance was removed and the skin was examined for any signs of irritation. No signs were found at any time. Therefore, the substance is classifiable as irritant according to the CLP Regulation.
