Executive summary:

The skin irritation potential of the test substance ZMBT was evaluated in a skin irritation study with six New Zealand Albino rabbits. The finely ground test substance (0.5 mg) moistened with water was applied under semi-occlusive dressings to clipped intact and abraded skin of 6 New Zealand albino rabbits for 24 hours. A 7 day observation period followed the test substance application. The test substance ZMBT was practically non-irritating to rabbit skin (mean irritation score intact and abraded skin 24 and 72 h average: 0).
