Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
The study has been performed in human. This is a single-blind within subject comparison study conducted in 30 healthy volunteers of either sex to evaluate the comparative skin irritation of the substance following cutaneous patch applications. Patches consisted of 2 sets of 5 Webril disks fixed along the midline of 5cm wide strips of occlusive Blenderm tape. Patches were applied for four 23 hours periods with assessment 1 hour after the removal of each patch.
GLP compliance:
yes
Remarks:
Good Clinical Research Practice here

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
study cannot be used for classification
Conclusions:
The substance was tested at different concentrations in sodium lauryl sulfate in 30 healthy volunteers. The substance didn't show any adverse effects or reactions during the study and was therefore not irritant to the skin of the subjects.
