Constituent 1
Test animals / tissue source
- Species:
- rabbit
Test system
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Controls:
- no
- Amount / concentration applied:
- 0.1 ml
- Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 24 hours
- Observation period (in vivo):
- 24, 48 and 72 hours
- Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
