At 48 and 72 h after removal, moderate erythema, slight ischemic incrustation and slight or moderate oedema were observed in the three rabbits.
At 7 days after removal, moderate or severe incrustation was observed. In one animal (#2), a few small areas of the incrustation had a black appearance
(haemorrhages). Because of the incrustation present, erythema and oedema could not be scored.
At 14 days after removal, slight, moderate or severe incrustation was observed. Animal #2 still showed the few small black areas. Another animal (#1) showed a few small wounds because of removal of the incrustation by the animal.
At 20/21 days after removal, these skin effects had cleared in the three rabbits, but decreased hair growth (alopecia) was observed on the entire test site of all animals.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 1 (corrosive) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- ETFBO was demonstrated to be corrosive to skin.
- Executive summary:
The skin corrosion/irritation potential was investigated in a GPL-compliant study performed according to OECD test guideline 404.
The study was carried out with three male New Zealand White albino rabbits. Three days prior to the start of the study, the hair was removed from the back and flanks of the animals using electric clippers in a way as to avoid abrasions. The rabbits were treated as follows: just prior to application, a skin site suitable for application was selected on the clipped flank of the animal. An amount of 0.5 mL of the test substance was distributed over a patch measuring 2.5 x 2.5 cm and fixed to the selected application site by means of adhesive tape. The entire trunk of the rabbit was wrapped with an impervious material to maintain the test patch in position. After an exposure period of ca. 4 hours, the patch and the material applied were removed. Skin readings were made ca. one hour after the end of exposure and after approximately 24, 48, and 72 h and after 7, 14 and 20/21 days using the method of Draize et al. (1944).
At 1 h after removal, well-defined erythema and moderate oedema were observed in the three rabbits. At 24 h after removal, moderate erythema and moderate oedema were observed in the three rabbits. In addition, slight ischemic necrosis was observed. At 48 and 72 h after removal, moderate erythema, slight ischemic incrustation and slight or moderate oedema were observed in the three rabbits. At 7 days after removal, moderate or severe incrustation was observed. In one animal (#2), a few small areas of the incrustation had a black appearance (haemorrhages). Because of the incrustation present, erythema and oedema could not be scored. At 14 days after removal, slight, moderate or severe incrustation was observed. Animal #2 still showed the few small black areas. Another animal (#1) showed a few small wounds because of removal of the incrustation by the animal. At 20/21 days after removal, these skin effects had cleared in the three rabbits, but decreased hair growth (alopecia) was observed on the entire test site of all animals.
According to the GHS criteria, ETFBO has to be considered as corrosive to skin and has to be classified in Category 1 for skin corrosion.
