occlusive
Preparation of test site:
not specified
Vehicle:
water
Controls:
not required
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5 g; moistened with distilled water for injection
- Concentration (if solution): no data

VEHICLE
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): no data
- Concentration (if solution): no data
- Lot/batch no. (if required): not applicable
- Purity: not applicable
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hours
Observation period:
1, 24 and 48 hours after the lint removal.
Number of animals:
3 male animals
Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: dorsal
- % coverage: no data
- Type of wrap if used: 0.5 g of the test agent was applied to a 2.5 cm square lint (Nankai Sangyou Inc.), and was secured with a piece of White Tape (Nichiban Co., Ltd.). Two application areas were established per animal. Each area was covered with a piece of oilpaper (Amadin Inc.), and the torso was covered by Silkytex (Alcare Co., Ltd.) to protect and secure the lint.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): the area was wiped off with distilled water for injection to remove the test agent
- Time after start of exposure: 4 hours

SCORING SYSTEM: Grades were given based on the Draize scoring method. The skin irritation of the test agent was evaluated according to skin primary irritation evaluation standard of the AFNOR (1982)
