- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- All animals showed slight erythema from 1- 72 h after patch removal. In 1 animal an increase to more definite erythema was noted at 24 h after patch removal. This animal continued to show slight erythema for 14 d after patch removal, with the skin becoming dry and flaky at the test site after 13 d.
No oedema was noted during the observation period.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- The test substance was assessed for acute dermal irritation according to OECD guideline 404. The test substance is classifed as not irritating although it was found to be a mild irritant to rabbit skin under the conditions of this test.
