Irritant / corrosive response data:
Dermal exposure elicited very slight erythema in 4 animals and well-defined erythema in 2 animals at the 60 minute observation. Four animals displayed very slight edema at the 60 minute observation. Irritation increased slightly as the study progressed and at the 72 hour observation, two animals displayed well-defined erythema and one animal displayed moderate-to-severe erythema. Edema scores also increased and at the 72 hour observation two animals displayed very slight edema and one animal displayed slight edema. Irritation subsided slightly after the 72 hour observation and on day 7, two animals displayed very slight erythema and no edema, two animals displayed very slight erythema and very slight edema and one animal displayed well-defined erythema and very slight edema. Desquamation was noted in four of the six test animals at the day 7 observation period.

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Slight irritation was noted, but subsided over a seven day observation period.
Executive summary:

In this study, 6 rabbits were exposed to the registered substance via a semi-occlusive dermal patch for 4 hours. Observations for skin irritation were made at 45 minutes, 24, 48, and 72 hours and on day 7 post-patch removal. Dermal exposure elicited very slight erythema in 4 animals and well-defined erythema in 2 animals at the 60 minute observation. Four animals displayed very slight edema at the 60 minute observation. Irritation increased slightly as the study progressed and at the 72 hour observation, two animals displayed well-defined erythema and one animal displayed moderate-to-severe erythema. Edema scores also increased and at the 72 hour observation two animals displayed very slight edema and one animal displayed slight edema. Irritation subsided slightly after the 72 hour observation and on day 7, two animals displayed very slight erythema and no edema, two animals displayed very slight erythema and very slight edema and one animal displayed well-defined erythema and very slight edema. Desquamation was noted in four of the six test animals at the day 7 observation period.
