Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
undiluted test material was applied to intact, clipped skin (dorsal) of New Zealand albino male and female rabbits to determine the minimum lethal dose by the dermal route. Following application, treated areas were covered with plastic to preclude evaporation of the ester. Test material was washed off after the 24-hr exposure perid. animals were held for a 14-day observation period, after which they were sacrificed and subjected to gross autopsy.
