Abstract
Range-finding irritation data indicates this test substance is 'severely' irritating to the skin of rabbits (Primary Irritation Score between 5.0 and 8.0), and 'severely' irritating to their eyes (irritation not reversible within 21 days). Because this test substance produces a 'severe' irritation to the eyes of rabbits, precautions must be observed to prevent the introduction of this test substance into ore near the eyes. Prolonged or repeated skin contact must also be prevented since this substance is 'severely' irritating to rabbit skin. The irritation tests reported here are considered to be 'range-finding' (exploratory) type experiments, and the data obtained from them should be treated as such. Further extrapolation or interpretation of these data is not recommended without additional testing.
