Principles of method if other than guideline:
Six albino rabbits were clipped and then one side of the back was abraded to penetrate the stratum corneum with the other side kept intact. A 0.5 mL portion of the test material was applied to an abraded and an intact skin site of the same rabbit. A gauze patch was placed over each application site and an impervious material was wrapped around the trunk of the animal to hold the patches. The wrapping was removed after 24h. Treated areas were examined at 24h after treatment and scoring using the Draize method was done at 72h after treatment.

Executive summary:

Test Guidance

Skin irritation study performed by a similar method to 16 CFR 1500.41 of the Federal Hazardous Substances Act Regulations.

Method and Material

Six albino rabbits were clipped and then one side of the back was abraded to penetrate the stratum corneum with the other side kept intact. A 0.5 mL of the test material was applied to an abraded and an intact skin site of the same rabbit. A gauze patch was placed over each application site and an impervious material was wrapped around the trunk of the animal to hold the patches. The wrapping was removed after 24 hours. Treated areas were examined for erythema and edema using the Draize method of scoring at 24 and 72 hours.

Results

Very slight erythema was observed at the intact skin in two and three animals at 24 and 72 hours, respectively. Whereas in abraded skin, very slight erythema was observed in three and four animals at 24 and 72 hours, respectively. At 24 and 72 hours, very slight edema was observed in intact skin of three animals. At 24 and 72 hours, very slight edema was observed in abraded skin of two and three animals, respectively; whereas slight edema was observed in abraded skin of one animal at 24 and 72 hours. There was no evidence of reversibility over the limited timeframe of the study.

Conclusion

In accordance with EU CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, classification of this substance is not required for skin irritation.

Executive summary:

Test Guidance

Eye irritation study performed by a similar method to 16 CFR 1500.42 of the Federal Hazardous Substances Act.

Method and Material

0.1 mL of the test material was instilled into the right eye of six young adult albino rabbits. The left eye served as the untreated control. The test material was not washed from the eye. Treated eyes were examined at 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7 days following treatment. Interpretation of results was made in accordance with the Draize scale.

Results

No sign of eye irritation was observed in any of the treated animals up to the 7 days observation period.

Conclusion

In accordance with EU CLP Regulation No. 1272/2008 classification of this substance is not required for eye irritation.

Additional information

Skin corrosion in vitro

An in vitro skin corrosion study does not need to be conducted because adequate data from an in vivo skin irritation study are available.

 

Skin irritation in vitro

An in vitro skin irritation study does not need to be conducted because adequate data from an in vivo skin irritation study are available.

 

Skin irritation in vivo

The Skin irritation study was performed by a similar method to 16 CFR 1500.41 of the Federal Hazardous Substances Act Regulations.

 

Six albino rabbits were clipped and then one side of the back was abraded to penetrate the stratum corneum with the other side kept intact. A 0.5 mL of the test material was applied to an abraded and an intact skin site of the same rabbit. A gauze patch was placed over each application site and an impervious material was wrapped around the trunk of the animal to hold the patches. The wrapping was removed after 24 hours. Treated areas were examined for erythema and edema using the Draize method of scoring at 24 and 72 hours.

Very slight erythema was observed at the intact skin in two and three animals at 24 and 72 hours, respectively. Whereas in abraded skin, very slight erythema was observed in three and four animals at 24 and 72 hours, respectively. All scores were below a positive score for irritation and only three out of six animals indicate very slight erythema (grade 1) in intact skin. At 24 and 72 hours, very slight edema was observed in intact skin of three animals. At 24 and 72 hours, very slight edema was observed in abraded skin of two and three animals, respectively; whereas slight edema was observed in abraded skin of one animal at 24 and 72 hours. There was no evidence of reversibility over the limited timeframe of the study.

 

Topical range finding tests in the Buehler study conducted in accordance with OECD 406 demonstrated that the test material was well tolerated and as such, the induction exposures were performed with the neat material.

In addition, dermal irritation observations in the acute dermal toxicity study performed with rats in accordance with OECD 402 indicated no irritation with the undiluted material with a contact time of 24 hours.

In accordance with EU CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, classification of this substance is not required for skin irritation.

Eye irritation in vitro

An in vitro eye irritation study does not need to be conducted because adequate data from an in vivo eye irritation study are available.

Treated eyes were examined at 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7 days following treatment. Interpretation of results was made in accordance with the Draize scale.

No sign of eye irritation was observed in any of the treated animals up to the 7 days observation period.

 

In accordance with EU CLP Regulation No. 1272/2008 classification of this substance is not required for eye irritation.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Under the conditions of the studies, the test material is not irritating to the skin or the eye of rabbits. In accordance with EU CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, classification of this substance is not required for irritation effects
