Administrative data

Endpoint:
skin irritation: in vivo
Type of information:
migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
1983-04-26 to 1983-06-10
Reliability:

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
Not conducted according to GLP or OECD gudeline but equivalent to OECD guideline 404, with modified scoring scheme. Test substance (Fenopon AC798) idetfied in study report as Sodium Lauryl isethionate. Read-across is based upon a commonality of functional groups, constituents, breakdown products and metabolic pathways. A detailed justification is appended in Section 13.
