Test animals
- Species:
- rabbit
- Strain:
- Vienna White
- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- TEST ANIMALS
- Source: White Vienna animals from Gaukler; D-6050 Offenbach/Main, FRG
- Age at study initiation: young adult animals
- Weight at study initiation: mean bw of 2.71 kg for males (2) and 2.51 kg for female (1)
- Housing: one animal per cage in cages made of stainless steel with wire mesh walk floors (floor area : 40 cm x 51 cm)
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): Kliba 341, 4 MM; from Klingentalmuehle AG, CH-4303 Kaiseraugst, Switzerland (about 130 g per animal per day)
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): about 250 ml tap water per animal per day
- Acclimation period: at least 8 days before the beginning of the study
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
The animals were housed in fully air-conditioned rooms. Central air-conditioning guaranteed a temperature range and a relative humidity. There were no deviations from these ranges which influenced the results of the study.
- Temperature (°C): 20 - 24
- Humidity (%): 30 - 70
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12
Test system
- Type of coverage:
- semiocclusive
- Preparation of test site:
- shaved
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Controls:
- other: untreated skin site of the same animals
- Amount / concentration applied:
- TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5 ml - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 4 hour(s)
- Observation period:
- 72 hours (all irritation effects were reversible within 48 hours)
- Number of animals:
- 3
- Details on study design:
- TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: upper third of the back or flanks; the fur was clipped at least 15 hours before the beginning of the study
- % coverage: . application site of 2.5 x 2.5 cm was covered with the 0.5 ml (526 mg) test substance
- Type of wrap if used: semiocclusive patch
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): yes, with lutrol and lutrol/water 1:1
- Time after start of exposure: at the end of exposure period (4 hours)
SCORING SYSTEM: OECD scoring system
Readings: 30 - 60 min, and 24, 48, or 72 hours after removal of test patches
