- Conclusions:
- In this OECD TG 404 study, the test substance was not determined to be irritating to the skin.
- Executive summary:
The GLP compliant study was performed to assess the irritancy potential of the test material to the skin of the New Zealand White rabbit. The method was designed to meet the requirements of the following the OECD TG 404. A single 4-hour, semi-occluded application of the test material to the intact skin of three rabbits produced well-defined erythema and very slight to slight oedema. Other skin reactions noted were loss of skin elasticity and flexibility, moderate desquamation and reduced regrowth of fur. Treated skin sites appeared normal at the 10, 14 or 17-day observation. Bodyweight loss and increased salivation was noted in all animals. The mean value for erythema is determined to be 2 (max value for erythema score = 4) and the mean value for oedema is determined to be 1 (max value for oedema score = 4) in at least 2 out of 3 animals. The adverse effects are fully reversible within 10 days. The results indicate that the substance is not irritating to the skin.

Vascularisation, with a localised ingrowth of vessels for up to 4 to 5 mm, was noted in the treated eye. Alopecia was noted around the treated eye. Increased salivation and bodyweight loss were also noted during the study. The mean (24 -72 hours) irritation scores were determined to be 0, 1, 2 and 2 for corneal opacity, iritis, conjuctival redness and chemosis, respectively. In addition, vascularisation of the cornea was observed at the 14-day observation and was still present at the end of the observation period on Day 35.Due to the severity of the response produced in this one animal, no further animals were treated.Based these results, the test substance was determined to be an irritant to the rabbit eye.

Additional information
Skin irritation / corrosion
A GLP compliant study (Pooles, 2005) was performed to assess the irritation potential of the test material to the skin of the New Zealand White rabbit. The method was designed to meet the requirements of the OECD TG 404. A single 4-hour, semi-occluded application of the test material to the intact skin of three rabbits produced well-defined erythema and very slight to slight oedema. Other skin reactions noted were loss of skin elasticity and flexibility, moderate desquamation and reduced regrowth of fur. Treated skin sites appeared normal at the 10, 14 or 17-day observation. Bodyweight loss and increased salivation was noted in all animals. The mean value for erythema was determined to be 2 (max value for erythema score = 4) and the mean value for oedema was determined to be 1 (max value for oedema score = 4) in at least 2 out of 3 animals. The adverse effects were fully reversible within 10 days. The results indicate that the substance is not irritating to the skin.

The method was designed to meet the requirements of the OECD TG 405. A single application of the test material to the non-irrigated eye of one rabbit produced scattered or diffuse corneal opacity, iridial inflammation and moderate conjunctival irritation.

In addition, vascularisation of the cornea was observed at the 14-day observation and was still present at the end of the observation period on Day 35. Due to the severity of the response produced in this one animal, no further animals were treated. Based on these results, the test substance was determined to be an irritant to the rabbit eye.
Justification for classification or non-classification
- Based on the available data, classification for skin irritiation is not warranted according to the EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008. However, as the substance has a harmonised classification as Skin Irrit. 2 (H315: Causes skin irritation), this classification is adopted for this dossier.
- Based on the available data for eye irritation, the substance is classified as Eye Irrit. 2 (H319: Causes serious eye irritation), according to the EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008. This classification is in line with the harmonised classification for this endpoint.
