Additional information
A GLP in vivo study was performed to assess the acute dermal irritation or corrosion potential of the test substance in White New Zealand rabbits according to the OECD guideline 404. 0.5 g of the test substance (purity: > 98 weight-%) was applied topical once on the intact skin of three female rabbits, using a patch of 6 cm2 for 4 hours. The application site was dressed semi-occlusively. The average score (24 to 72 hours) for irritation was calculated to be 0 for erythema and 0 for edema. Considering the described skin reactions, the test substance does not show a skin irritation potential under the test conditions chosen.
A supporting study to assess the acute dermal irritation or corrosion potential of the test substance was performed on 3 male and 3 female adult White New Zealand rabbits based on the proposed guidelines of the US EPA with a stringent design, namely: exposure under 24 h, occlusive conditions. An amount of 0.5 g of the test substance was applied topically once to the abraded skin of 6 rabbits. The application site was covered with an occlusive dressing for a period of 24 hours. The calculated primary irritation index was 0.05. Under the conditions of the present experiment the test substance was found to cause no irritation when applied to intact and abraded rabbit skin.
To assess the acute eye irritation potential of the test substance in vivo a GLP eye irritation test in White New Zealand rabbits was performed according to the method described in OECD guideline 405. An amount of 0.1 g of the test substance (purity: > 98 weight-%) was applied once to the eyes of three rabbits. The average score (24 to 72 hours) for irritation was calculated to be 0.0 for corneal opacity and iris, 0.33, 1 and 1.33 for conjunctivae redness in the three animals and 0, 0.33 and 0.33 for chemosis in the three animals. The findings were reversible in all animals within not later than 7 days after application. Under the test conditions chosen and considering the described findings the test substance does not give indication of an irritant property to the eye.
A supporting study to assess the acute eye irritation or corrosion potential of the test substance was performed on 3 male and 3 female White New Zealand rabbits based on the proposed guidelines of the US EPA.The test material (0.1 g) was inserted into the conjunctival sac of the left eye of the rabbits and the lids were gently closed for a few seconds. The right eye was not treated and served as an untreated control. Eye irritation was appraised with a slit-lamp on days 1, 2, 3, 4 and 7 and scored for each rabbit. The average score (24 to 72 hours) for irritation was calculated to be 0.0 for corneal opacity and iris, 0.3 for conjunctivae redness and 0 for chemosis. Under the conditions of this experiment, the test material does not give indication of an irritant property to the eye.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Classification, Labelling, and Packaging Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008
The available experimental test data are reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation 1272/2008. As a result the substance is not considered to be classified for irritation under Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
