Irritant / corrosive response data:
Black staining from the test substance was observed at the test site of two animals until the 24 hour examination and in the other rabbit until the 72 hour examination. The discolouration did not affect the assessment of any potential erythematous response. There was no irritant response to treatment.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
There was no irritation response to treatment.
Under the conditions of this test, BTN/A was designated 'non-irritant' to skin.
Executive summary:

Skin irritation has been investigated using OECD/EU test methods. Exposure to the substance for 4 hours did not result in any irritant response.
