Preparation of test site:
shaved
Vehicle:
physiological saline
Controls:
no
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied: 500 mg sodium hydrogen sulphate with 0.3 ml 0.9 % NaCl solution
VEHICLE
- Amount(s) applied: 0.3 ml 0.9 % NaCl solution
No further information was stated.
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hours
Observation period:
Observation at 30-60 minutes as well as at 24, 48, 72 hours after application.
Number of animals:

Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: 24 hours before testing the fur of the dorsal area of the trunk was removed (area of 25 cm^2). The test substance with 0.3 ml 0.9 % NaCl-soultion was applied onto a 2.5 X 2.5 cm band-aid. The band-aid was fixed onto the shaved skin of the rabbits and a semiocclusive coverage was applied.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing: After exposure the remaining test substance was carefully removed with tepid water.

SCORING SYSTEM:
Draize scoring system
No further information was stated.
