- TEST SITE
- Type of wrap if used: The treated area was covered with a piece of 4-ply surgical gauze (approximate size 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm), which was secured by two strips of surgical tape (approximate size 1 cm x 8 cm). This was covered by a piece of impermeable rubber sheeting (approximate size 35 cm x 13 cm) wrapped once around the trunk of the animal and secured with adhesive impermeable polyethylene tape.

- Observation time points: The Draize scale was used to assess the degree of erythema and oedema at the application sites approximately 1 hour and 1, 2 and 3 days after removal of the dressings and then at intervals for up to 7 days. Any other signs of skin irritation were also noted.
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing: The application site was gently cleansed free of any residual test substance using clean swabs of absorbent cotton wool soaked in clean warm water and was then dried gently with clean tissue paper. The application site was identified using a black waterproof marker-pen.

- Other effects:
- - Other adverse local effects: The test substance adhered to the application site of one animal, staining the skin yellow, but this did not prevent the assessment of irritation
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The test substance is a slight irritant following a single four-hour application to rabbit skin, but not sufficient for classification under CLP.
- Executive summary:
A primary skin irritation test was conducted with male and female New Zealand White rabbits, in accordance with GLP and OECD TG 404, to determine the skin irritation potential of the substance after a single topical application. A group of 3 rabbits received a single four-hour application of 0.5 mL of the test substance to the shorn flank under occlusive conditions. The animals were assessed for up to 7 days for any signs of skin irritation. Following exposure, dermal irritation was evaluated by the method of Draize et al.
Very slight erythema was seen in two animals for up to 7 days and very slight oedema was seen in all three animals for up to 4 days. The mean erythema irritation scores for the time points after 24/48/72 hours were determined to be 0.3, 0 and 1 for animal 1 to 3. The mean oedema irritation scores for the time points after 24/48/72 hours were determined to be 0.67, 0.67 and 0 for animal 1 to 3. There were no additional signs of irritation.
The test substance is a slight irritant following a single four-hour application to rabbit skin, but not sufficient for classification under CLP.

- SCORING SYSTEM:
The eyes were examined and the Draize scale was used to assess the grade of ocular reaction approximately one hour and 1, 2 and 3 days after instillation. In addition, as an aid in the assessment of corneal damage, fluorescein staining was used at all readings from 1 day after instillation.
TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: As an aid to assessment of the eye, all animals were placed in an artificial daylight chamber each time the eyes were examined. Both eyes of each rabbit were examined the day before dosing, The examination consisted of a visual assessment with the aid of fluorescein and only rabbits without any apparent eye defects or ocular irritation were used. Immediately after the instillation of the test substance, an assessment of the initial pain reaction of the rabbit was made using a six-point scale.

Additional information
Skin irritation/corrosion
A primary skin irritation test was conducted with male and female New Zealand White rabbits, in accordance with GLP and OECD TG 404, to determine the skin irritation potential of the substance after a single topical application. A group of 3 rabbits received a single four-hour application of 0.5 mL of the test substance to the shorn flank under occlusive conditions. The animals were assessed for up to 7 days for any signs of skin irritation. Following exposure, dermal irritation was evaluated by the method of Draize et al.
Very slight erythema was seen in two animals for up to 7 days and very slight oedema was seen in all three animals for up to 4 days. The mean erythema irritation scores for the time points after 24/48/72 hours were determined to be 0.3, 0 and 1 for animal 1 to 3. The mean oedema irritation scores for the time points after 24/48/72 hours were determined to be 0.67, 0.67 and 0 for animal 1 to 3. There were no additional signs of irritation.
The test substance is a slight irritant following a single four-hour application to rabbit skin, but not sufficient for classification under CLP.

Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the available information classification for skin and eye irritation/corrosion is not warranted in accordance with EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation No. 1272/2008.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
