Specific details on test material used for the study:

The discrepancy between originally usded identifier of the substance and new test material information is due to change in the main identifier through the Substance identity adaptation service offered by ECHA. The new identifier is covered by old identifier mentioned in Additional test material information section

Results for the primary skin irritation of the abraded and intact skin at 24 and 72 hrs:

Animal number	24 h		72 h
	Abraded	Intact	Abraded	Intact
1	3-2	3-2	3-3	3-3
2	3-2	3-2	3-3	3-3
3	3-2	3-2	3-3	3-3
4	3-2	3-2	3-3	3-3
5	3-2	3-2	3-3	3-3
6	3-2	3-2	3-3	3-3

Scoring was done similar to the Draize system of classification.

Observations: Moderate to severe erythema and defined edema was observed at 24 h and moderate to severe erythema and moderate edema was observed at 72 h on abraded and intact rabbit skin.

The mean primary skin irritation index obtained = 5.50 (mean of erythema and edema scores at 24 and 72 h).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

Category 2 (irritant) based on GHS criteria

Conclusions:

Under the conditions of the study, the test substance was irritating to skin.

Executive summary:

A study was conducted to assess the irritation potential of the test substance to rabbit skin in accordance with Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations, 191.11. Six animals were treated with undiluted test substance (0.5 mL or 0.5 g). The treated areas were covered with a semi-occlusive gauze patch and taped to maintain the test substance in contact with the skin for 24 h. The degree of erythema and edema was recorded according to the Draize scoring system after 24 and 72 h. Moderate to severe erythema and defined edema was observed at 24 h and moderate to severe erythema and moderate edema was observed at 72 h on the abraded and intact rabbit skin. The mean primary skin irritation index (PII) was 5.5. Under the conditions of the study, the test substance was irritating to skin (Casey, 1976).
