Irritant / corrosive response data:
Well-defined erythema with very slight to slight oedema was seen in all animals. In addition, desquamation of the stratum corneum (characterised by dryness and sloughing) developed in 2 animals. Reactions gradually ameliorated and had resolved completely in 2 animals by either Day 7 or 13. Very slight erythema and desquamation was still evident in the remaining animal at study termination on Day 14.
Other effects:
There were no signs of toxicity or ill health in any animal during the observation period.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: CLP/EU GHS criteria not met, no classification required according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the Acute Dermal Irritation/Corrosion Test in rabbits the test substance does not possess any skin irritating potential.
