Irritant / corrosive response data:
The following were observed in treated rabbits.
The patch was removed after 4 hours and rabbits were observed for erythema and oedema at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal, evaluated and graded as per draize method.

In Animals Nos.1, 2 and 3 after post patch removal, revealed no erythema and oedema at 24 and 48 and 72 hour during the observation period.

The individual mean score at 24, 48 and 72 hours for Animal Nos. 1, 2 and 3 were 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 and 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, for erythema and oedema formation, respectively.
Other effects:
Clinical Observation
No systemic toxicity was observed at treated rabbits during the experimental period.

Mortality
No mortality was observed during the observation period.

Body weight
Body weights of all Animals were comparable with pre-treatment body weight.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Conclusions:
The individual mean score at 24, 48 and 72 hours for Animal Nos. 1, 2 and 3 were 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 and 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, for erythema and oedema formation, respectively.Hence, the test chemical was regarded as non-Irritating to the skin of Female New Zealand White rabbits under the experimental conditions tested and is thus not classified as a skin irritant.
Executive summary:

Acute Dermal Irritation/corrosion Study of test chemical in Rabbits.This study was performed as per OECD guideline No. 404. Three healthy young adult male rabbits were used for conducting acute dermal irritation study.Body weights were re­corded on day 0 (prior to application) and at termination. Rabbits with good intact skin were selected for the study. The hairs of all the rabbits were clipped at contralateral sites, approximately 24 hours prior to treatment.A dose of0.5 gm of test item moistened with 0.5 ml of distilled water wasappliedto the skin,over an area of approximately 6 x 6 cm clippedof haironone side of rabbits.The other untreated side was kept as control area and0.5 ml of distilled water was applied at this site. At the end of 4 hours, the gauze patch was removed and test item application site was wiped with water without altering the integrity of the epidermis. Initially, the test item was applied to the clipped area of skin of one rabbit. The test site was covered with gauze patch.After 4 hours of exposure in Animal No. 1, there was no erythema and oedema observed at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours observation.Hence the confirmatory test was conducted on additional two rabbits (No. 2 and 3)to confirm the non irritant nature of the test item.In Animals Nos. 2 and 3 after post patch removal, revealed no erythema and oedema at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours observation.The patch was removed after 4 hours and rabbits wereobservedfor erythema and oedemaat 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal, evaluatedand graded as per draize method. The individual mean score at 24, 48 and 72 hours for Animal Nos. 1, 2 and 3 were 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 and 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, for erythema and oedema formation, respectively. Hence, it was concluded that the test chemical

was Non-Irritating to the skin of female New Zealand White rabbits under the experimental conditions tested.
