Test animals

Species:
rabbit
Strain:
New Zealand White
Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
Age: 15-16 weeks
Body weight: 2.1 -2.7 kg
Source: Kelintierfarm Madoerin AG, Fuellinsdorf CH
Acclimation: 4 days under test conditions after veterinary control.
Accomodation: Caged singly in stainless steel cages equipped with an automatic cleaning and drinking system (Dipl. Ing. W. Ehret Gmbh, Emmendingen FRG D
Temperature of 22°C and with a humidity of 40-70%.
Animals were exposed to artificial light for 12 hours daily, Music/light period.
Diet: Pelleted standard Kliba 341, Batch 11/85 rabbit maintenance diet (Kliba, Klingentalmuehle AG, Kaiseraugst CH) was fed ad libitum. The food was analysed and the results of contaminats are attached to the study report.
Water: community tap water from Itingen ad libitum. The water was analysed and the results are attached to the study report.

Test system

Type of coverage:
occlusive
Preparation of test site:
shaved
Vehicle:
water
Controls:
not specified
Amount / concentration applied:
0.5 g of the test compound was applied to each test site on a 3 cm square surgical gauze pad.
This were covered with aluminium foil and then covered with an occlusive dressing. The dressing was wrapped around the abdomen and anchored with an elastic bandage.
Duration of treatment / exposure:
no data
Observation period:
1, 24, 48 and 72 hours
Number of animals:
2 males, 1 female
Details on study design:
Twenty-four hours prior to the dermal application, the backs of the rabbits were shaved with an electric clipper over an area consisting of 100 square centimeters (10 cm x 10 cm)

Irritant / corrosive response data:
No irritation effect observed on all animals. The primary irritation index was 0 when applied to intact skin.
No destructions or irreversible alterations of the treated skin were observed. No corrosive effect was evident on the skin.
Other effects:
Coloration: in the area of application a clear visible brownish disocloration of the test skin was observed which could be related to effects of the test article.
Toxic symptoms / mortality: no acute symptoms were observed during the test period and no mortality occurred.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Based on the test results, the tested item is to be considered as non-irritant to the skin of rabbits.
Executive summary:

The primary irritation score was assessed following OECD 404.

The results show no irritation on rabbit skin therefore the tested item is to be considered as non-irritant to skin under Regulation EC 1272/2008 .
