Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: Classification of corrosive hazards, Federal Register, Vol 37, No 57, § 173.240
Deviations:
not applicable
Principles of method if other than guideline:
0.5 mL of undiluted sample was applied to the clipped, intact skin of 3 NZW male and female rabbits under a one inch by one inch square patch, two single layers thick. The patches were held in place with adhesive tape in such a manner that evaporation was retarded, but not prevented, for the 4 h exposure period.
Scoring according to Draize et al. (1944) J Pharm Exp Therap 82
GLP compliance:
no
Remarks:
Study from 1972 (GLP was not compulsory at the time the study was performed).
