Benzeneacetic acid, .alpha.-hydroxy-, monoammonium salt, (.alpha.R)-
EC Number:
606-826-3
Cas Number:
217308-07-1
Molecular formula:
C8 H8 O3 .H3 N

Benzeneacetic acid, .alpha.-hydroxy-, monoammonium salt, (.alpha.R)-
Details on test material:
Name of the test substance used in the study report: (R)-Ammoniummandelat-Loesung (ca. 30%)
The test substance is an aqueous solution. The content of Ammoniummandelat was found to be 30% (29.1 - 31.2 g/1 00 g) and the content of water was found to be 70%.

Test animals

Species:
rabbit
Strain:
New Zealand White
Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:

Body weight range at the beginning of the study: 3.55 - 3.82 kg
The animals were housed in fully air-conditioned rooms, in which a central air-conditioning system ensured a temperature in the range of 20 - 24°C and a relative humidity in the range of 30 - 70%. The day/night rhythm was 12 h light and 12 h darkness.
Single housing in stainless steel wire mesh cages with grating, floor area: 3000 cm2.
Type of diet: Kliba-Labordiaet, Provimi Kliba SA, Kaiseraugst, Switzerland (about 130 9/animal per day)
Watering: Tap water ad libitum

clipped
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
other: untreated skin of the same animal
Amount / concentration applied:
0.5 ml
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hours
Observation period:
7 days
Number of animals:
3
Details on study design:
Clipping of the fur: At least 24 hours before the beginning of the study clipping of the dorsolateral part of the trunk of the animals.
Application area: 2.5 x 2.5 cm
Application site: Upper third of the back or flanks
Readings: About 1 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h and 7 days after removal of the test patch.
The test substance was removed at the end of the exposure period with Lutrol and Lutrol / water (1 : 1).
Body weight determination just before application of the test substance.
Check for dead or moribund animals: Twice each workday (beginning and end) and once on Saturdays, Sundays and on public holidays.
