TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Six rabbits (3 males/3 females) of the Russian breed
- Weight at study initiation: 1.5 to 2 kgs
- Housing: V2A wire cages
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): food (NAFAG, Gossau SG, rabbit food)
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): water ad libitum

Test system

Type of coverage:

occlusive

Preparation of test site:

shaved

Vehicle:

unchanged (no vehicle)

Controls:

no

Amount / concentration applied:

0.5 g (500mg)

Duration of treatment / exposure:

24 hours

Observation period:

72 hours

Number of animals:

6 (3 males/3 females)

Details on study design:

Six rabbits (3 males/3 females) of the Russian breed,weighing 1.5 to 2 kgs, were shaved on the whole back and flanks two days before treatment with an electric clipper. In order to prevent injuries by bites the rabbits were kept separately in V2A wire cages, where they had access to food (NAFAG, Gossau SG, rabbit food) and water ad libitum. The shaven skin on the left side was slightly scarified immediately before treatment.A gauze patch 2.5 x 2.5 cm was soaked with the test substance and immediately applied to the prepared skin. The patch was covered with a plastic film 5 x 5 cm, which was fixed, to the body with adhesive tape.
TK 11678 was applied to each side in quantities of 0.5 g. Before application a 50 % polyethylene glycol trituration (PEG 400) was made. The gauze patches were removed 24 hours after the application. The reaction of the skin was appraised upon removal and 72 hours after it.

Irritation parameter:

primary dermal irritation index (PDII)

Basis:

other: 24 and 74 hours

Score:

0

Max. score:

Reversibility:

no data

Remarks on result:

other: Not Irritant

Any other information on results incl. tables

The primary irritation index as the measure of the acute skin irritation provoked by the substance is defined as the average of all the ratings found after 24 and 72 hours on the intact and slightly scarified skin. Compounds producing combined averages (primary irritation indexes) of 2 or less are only mildly irritating; whereas those with indexes from 2 to 5 are moderate irritants, and those with scores above 6 are considered severe irritants.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

other: Not irritating

Conclusions:

The primary irritation index as the measure of the acute irritation to the skin of rabbits was observed to be 0. Therefore the test chemical can be considered as non-irritant to the skin of rabbits.

Executive summary:

The skin irritation study of test chemical was conducted in Russian breed rabbits. Six rabbits (3 males/3 females) of the Russian breed, weighing 1.5 to 2 kgs, were shaved on the whole back and flanks two days before treatment with an electric clipper. The shaven skin on the left side was slightly scarified immediately before treatment. A gauze patch 2.5 x 2.5 cm was soaked with the test substance and immediately applied to the prepared skin. The patch was covered with a plastic film 5 x 5 cm, which was fixed, to the body with adhesive tape. The test chemical was applied to each side in quantities of 0.5 g (500mg). Before application a 50 % polyethylene glycol trituration (PEG 400) was made. The gauze patches were removed 24 hours after the application. The reaction of the skin was appraised upon removal and 72 hours after it. The primary irritation index as the measure of the acute skin irritation provoked by the substance was defined as the average of all the ratings found after 24 and 72 hours on the intact and slightly scarified skin. Compounds producing combined averages (primary irritation indexes) of 2 or less are only mildly irritating; whereas those with indexes from 2 to 5 are moderate irritants, and those with scores above 6 are considered severe irritants.

The primary irritation index of test chemical was evaluated to be 0.0 out of maximum score of 8. Since the treated rabbits did not develop any signs of skin irritation, the test chemical was considered to be not irritating to the skin.
