Details on study design:
On the day of application, animals were inspected twice, over the following 14-day observation period twice a day (once on weekends and holidays), and type, onset, duration and intensity of clinical symptoms were recorded and any dead animals removed.
At application and at the end of the 14-day observation period, surviving animals were individually weighed.
