Description of key information

The submission item was determined to be corrosive in a primary dermal irritation study.  No eye irritation test was performed in accordance with Regulation (EC) 1907/2006, column 2 of Annex VIII. However, according to CLP regulation skin corrosive substances are considered as leading to serious damage of the eyes as well (category 1)

Other effects:
At time point 24 h and 48 h after removal of patches green and brown colouration of each site appeared. These zones were surrounded with an erythemateous zone.
At time point 72h the additinally skin suppleness decreased and necrosis was noted.
Interpretation of results:
corrosive
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The test substance is corrosive to the skin. Necrosis, destruction of the skin appeared later than 48h observation.
CPL Classification Category 1B is proposed
Executive summary:

Primary dermal irritation study was performed with MXDA/SM Adduct in accordance with OECD guideline No. 404 (1981).

The test substancewas applied to three different sites topically dermal (approximately 6 cm2) on the back of the one New Zealand White rabbit for 3 minutes (one patch), 1 hour (second patch) and 4 hours (third patch) of exposure. After completion of the exposure period the treated areas were observed after 1h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h post exposure.

Moderate to severe erythema (Score 3 -4) and odema (Score 3-4) were noted at all three application sites after 24 until 72 h post exposure. At time point 24 h and 48 h after removal of patches green and brown colouration of each site appeared. These zones were surrounded with an erythemateous zone. At time point 72h the additinally skin suppleness decreased and necrosis was noted.

Based on the result above, the test material was decided to be a corrosive material.

Additional information

A primary dermal irritation study was performed in accordance with OECD TG 404. The submission item was dermally applied to one rabbit at three different application sites for 3 minuets (one patch), 1hour (second patch) and 4 hours (third patch) of exposure. After completion of the exposure period the treated areas was observed for up to 72 hours. Moderate to severe erythema (Score 3 -4) and odema (Score 3-4) were noted at all three application sites after 24 hours until 72 hours post exposure. At time point 24 h and 48 h after removal of patches green and brown colouration of each site appeared. These zones were surrounded with an erythemateous zone. At time point 72h the additinally skin suppleness decreased and necrosis was noted.

Based on the result above, the test material was decided to be a corrosive material.

As the submission item was determined to be corrosive in the skin irritation test, no eye irritation test was performed in accordance with Regulation (EC) 1907/2006, column 2 of Annex VIII.


Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion endpoint:
Klimisch 1, guideline and GLP-conform study. This sutdy is supported by hte non-GLP study Harada, 2002.

Justification for selection of eye irritation endpoint:
The test item is corrosive to the skin.

Effects on skin irritation/corrosion: corrosive

Justification for classification or non-classification

The submission item was determined to be corrosive in a dermal irritation study. Corrosive effects were reported after 3 minutes to 4 hours of exposure after 48 h observation time.

Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP): Skin corrosion category 1B, H314 “Causes severe skin burns and eye damage”.

Council Directive 2001/59/EC (28th ATP of Directive 67/548/EEC): C; R34 "Causes burns”.

No eye irritation test was performed, as skin corrosiveness automatically implies corrosiveness to the eye.
