Test animals

Species:
rabbit
Strain:
New Zealand White
Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
Species and strain: New Zealand White rabbits
Source: S&K-LAP Kft.
2173 Kartal, Császár út 135, HUNGARY
Justification of strain: The New Zealand White albino rabbit is one of the standard strains used for acute irritation toxicity studies.
Animal health: Only animals in acceptable health condition were used for the test.
Number of animals: 3
Age of animals at treatment: ~13 weeks old
Sex: Male
Body weight range at the
beginning of the life phase: 3125-3459 g
at the end of the life phase: 3199-3539 g
Date of receipt: 27 December 2012
Acclimation time: 19 days
Animal identification: The animals were identified by engraved ear tags. The cages were marked with individual identity cards with information about study code, sex, cage number, dose group and individual animal number.


3.2.1. Husbandry


Number of animal room: 609
Lighting periods: 12 hours daily, from 6.00 a.m. to 6.00 p.m.
Temperature range during
the study: 20 ± 3 °C
Relative humidity during
the study: 25- 54%
Housing/Enrichment: Rabbits were individually housed in AAALAC approved metal wire rabbit cages. Cages were of an open wire structure and cages were placed together to allow some social interaction with rabbit(s) in adjoining cages.
Ventilation: 15-20 air exchanges/hour

The temperature and relative humidity values were measured continuously. The measured range was checked at least daily during the acclimatisation and experimental phases.



3.2.2. Food and Feeding


Animals received UNI diet for rabbits produced by AGRIBRANDS Europe Hungary PLC, H-5300 Karcag, Madarasi út, Hungary, ad libitum. Animals were provided with the following batch:
➢ 0161 10 12, expiry date: 15 January 2013
➢ 0181 11 12, expiry date: 24 February 2013

The details of the diets used will be archived with the raw data and are not reported.


3.2.3. Water Supply


The animals received municipal tap water, as for human consumption, ad libitum, from an automatic system.

Test system

Type of coverage:
occlusive
Preparation of test site:
shaved
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
other: Untreated skin of test animals provided control.
Amount / concentration applied:
0.5 g
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hours
Observation period:
72 hours
Number of animals:
3
Details on study design:
The test item was applied to an approximately 6 cm² area of intact skin as follows:
• A single layer of a fine medical gauze (open-weave with large holes) of approximately 5x5 cm was placed over the application area,
• The appropriate amount of test item was carefully spread over the application area (the gauze helped maintain the test item in place),
• Three more layers of gauze were placed over the test item,
• These gauze patches were kept in contact with the skin by a patch of clear plastic with a surrounding adhesive hypoallergenic plaster to ensure continued good contact between the moistened test item and the shaved skin.
• The entire trunks of the animals were wrapped with plastic wrap for 4 hours.
• Medical elastic tubing was placed over the plastic to keep it in place.
