RANGE FINDING TESTS:
A. Group A (5 animals) - Intradermal induction
- Test concentrations: 0.1, 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0%
- Results: 0.1% of the test substance was chosen for the main study, since it caused significant skin irritation and no necrosis.

B. Group B (5 animals) - Epicutaneous induction
Test concentrations: 5 and 10%
-Results: 10% of the test substance provoked slight skin irritation and eschar formation and was chosen as concentration for the main assay.

C. Group C (5 animals) - Challenge
Challenge: 2.5 and 5%
- Results: 2.5% of the test substance was selected for the main study, since 5% caused slight irritations in 4/5 animals.
