Test animals

Species:
rabbit
Strain:
New Zealand White
Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Albino Rabbit, New Zealand White, (SPF-Quality) from Charles River Deutschland, Kisslegg, Germany.
- Age at study initiation: 6 weeks
- Weight at study initiation: less than 3.5 kg (mean bw: 1.529 kg)
- Housing: Individually housed in labelled cages with perforated floors (Scanbur, Denmark) and equipped with an automatic drinking system (ITL, Bergen, The Netherlands)
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): standard laboratory rabbit diet (Charles River Breeding and Maintenance Diet for Rabbits, Altromin, Germany) approx. 100 g. per day.
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): free access to tap-water.
- Acclimation period: at least 5 days before start of treatment under laboratory conditions

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
A controlled environment was maintained in the room with optimal conditions
- Temperature (°C): 21°C
- Humidity (%): 50%
- Air changes (per hr): ca. 15
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12 hours artificial fluorescent light and 12 hours dark per day

Test system

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:
shaved
Vehicle:
other: the powdery test substance was moistened with water (Milli-U), immediately before application, to ensure close contact with the animal's skin.
Controls:
other: adjacent areas of the untreated skin of each animal served as controls
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5 g

VEHICLE
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): the test substance was moistened with 0.5 ml of the vehicle
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hours
Observation period:
up to 72 hours after test substance application
Number of animals:
3 animals of one sex (males)
Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: ca 24 hours before treatment, the dorsal fur was clipped with electric clippers, exposing an area of approximately 150 square centimeters (10x15 cm2).
- Type of wrap if used: the test compound was applied to the skin of one flank, using a metalline patch" of 2x3 cm. The patch was mounted on Micropore tape, which was wrapped around the abdomen and secured with Coban elastic bandage

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): the dressing was removed and the skin cleaned of residual test substance using water
- Time after start of exposure: 4 hours after application

SCORING SYSTEM: the irritation was assessed according to the OECD numerical scoring system. Whenever considered necessary the treated skin areas were re-clipped at least 3 hours before the observations, to facilitate scoring. The results were evaluated according to the EC criteria for classification and labeling requirements for dangerous substances and preparations.
