Details on study design:
The shaved skin of twenty female Dunkin/Hartley guinea pigs was treated with the test
material by intradermal injection (as a 30% v/v preparation in Alembicol D, with and
without Freund's oomplete adjuvant) and then by topical application of neat test material
seven days later.
Two weeks after the final induction administration, animals were challenged with test material as a 35% and 70% v/v preparations in Alembicol D, at separate skin sites, for a 24 hour dermal exposure.

Challenge controls:
Twenty female animals treated only with vehicle and Freund's complete adjuvant served as controls. The sites of exposure were examined for erythema and edema 24, 48 and 72 hours following removal of test material.
