IN-LIFE DATES: From: 27 Jun to 03 Jul 1989

Test system

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:
clipped
Remarks:
with a fine comb electric clipper to obtain a skin area of approx. 14 x 14 cm
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
other: contralateral side was applied with distilled water as control
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5 mL
- Concentration (if solution): unchanged
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4h
Observation period:
7 days
Readings at 24h, 48h, 72h, 6d, and 7d after application and at 1h after removal of dressing
Number of animals:
3
Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: 2.5 cm² square
- Type of wrap if used: Test substance (or water on contralateral body side) was applied on a Codex hydrophilic eight layer gauze, about 2.5 cm², which was laid down on the skin. The gauze was kept in contact with skin using a hypoallergenic microporous adhesive strip. The whole was then covered with a stretchable band (fixed with adhesive tape) wrapped round the animal.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): none

OBSERVATION TIME POINTS
1 hour after removal of dressing; 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 6 days, and 7 days after application

SCORING SYSTEM:
- Method of calculation: erythema and edema scores from 0-4.
