Executive summary:

The skin irritation property of the registration substance was investigated according to the OECD Guideline 404. Three rabbits were treated topically with 0.5 ml triethylenglycoldibutylether (representative material for the registration substance). The animals exhibited transient erythema and edema that were fully reversible within 14 days of observation period. The obtained mean scores for erythema and edema were 1.3 and 0.2 respectively. Based on the obtained result the registration substance was found to be not irritating according to the EU criteria.

Executive summary:

The eye irritation property of the registration substance was investigated according to the OECD Guideline 405. Triethylenglycoldibutylether (representative material for the registration substance) was given into one eye of three rabbits each at dose of 0.1 ml. The animals exhibited transient conjuctivae redness, maximal scores being one. No significant eye irritation property was found for the registration substance.

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed (not irritating)
