Test system

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:
other: intact and abraded
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit):0.5 ml
Duration of treatment / exposure:
24 hour(s)
Observation period:
72 hours
Number of animals:
6
Details on study design:
The backs of 6 rabbits were clipped free of hair with electric clippers 24 hours prior to use. Under a surgical gauze patch held in place with adhesive tape, 0.5 ml of the test material was applied to an intact and freshly abraded site on each rabbit. The patches were covered with a piece of heavy-gauge plastic film to retard evaporation and bandaged. After 24 hours, the patches were removed and each site was assessed; the severity of the reaction was recorded then , and at 72 hours from the beginning of the test.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE

- Scoring system: no data (score range 0 - 8)
- Examination time points: at patch removal and 72 hours

Results and discussion

In vivo

Results
Irritation parameter:
primary dermal irritation index (PDII)
Time point:
other: 24 hour
Score:
0
Max. score:
8
Irritant / corrosive response data:
No redness or swelling was observed on the skin of any of the 6 rabbits after 24 hours exposure to the test material. Therefore, the primary irritation score was 0 out of possible 8.
