Macrolex RR fl. produced a primary irritation value of 0 concerning irritation in mucous membrane on the eye

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Executive summary:

Additional information

Skin irritation


In a study performed according OECD 404 (Schreiber, 1982) 500 µl of the test substance formulated in glycerin were placed on a plaster and applied on the skin of 3 rabbits. After 4 hours the plaster was removed and the exposed skin area was cleaned with water. Erythema/scab building and edema were scored according to Draize at 24, 48 and 72 hours. No erythema and no edema was observed. At 1, 24, 48, 72 h a determination of the erythema score was not possible due to substance induced coloration of the skin. At 8 d the score was 0. Edema score was 0 at any time point (1, 24, 48, 72 h, and 8 d).


In another study (Thyssen, 1975), 500 µL of the test substance was applied on the skin of 2 rabbits for 24 hours. Erythema and edema were scored according to Draize No erythema nor edema were observed. Scores were 0 at any time point (1, 24, 72 h, 6 and 7d).


 


Eye irritation


In a valid study according OECD 405 (Schreiber, 1982) 100 µl (ca. 40 mg) test substance was applied into the conjuctival sac of 3 rabbits. The treated eye was washed after 24 hours with physiological saline. Eyes were examinated after application of test substance for 7 days. Cornea, iris, conjunctiva (erythema and chemosis) were scored according to Draize at 24, 48 and 72 hours. Mean values (24, 48 and 72 h) for cornea score = 0, iris score = 0, conjuctivae score = 0 and chemosis score = 0. The test substance is not irritating.


 

Justification for classification or non-classification

Due to the results of the skin irritation/corrosion and eye irration study a classifiacion is not justified.
