Details on study design:
On the first day of the study the animals abdomens were clipped and tape stripped and two intradermal injections totaling 0.05 ml of Freund's Complete Adjuvant were administered.
A 50% solution in 95% ETOH, 100 μl, was applied to the shaved area on the first day and the following 3 days, with the skin being tape stripped before each application.
After a 7 day nontreatment period, a topical application of 20 μl of a 50% solution in 95% ETOH, was made to the left ear of the mouse while the right ear received 20 μl of the vehicle alone.
The ear thickness was measured 24 and 48 h after the challenge application.
