Test animals

Species:
rabbit
Strain:
New Zealand White
Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
One male and two female (nulliparous and non-pregnant) young adult New Zealand White rabbits were used. They were supplied by Cheshire Rabbit Farms Limited, Duddon Lodge, Tarporley, Cheshire and arriveds at Elphinstone Research Centre on 24 May 1988.

The rabbits were housed individually in aluminium cages with grid floors beneath which were peat moss filled trays.

The rabbits were fed Rabbit Diet, supplied by Special Diet Services and allowed food and tap water ad libitum. The diet and water are analysed on a regular basis and meet the criteria laid down by IRI.

Mean environmental maximum and minimum temperatures were 19 °C and 17 °C and mean relative humidity was 58%. At 12 h light/dark cycle was in operation (light hours 0700 - 1900 h)

The rabbits were allowed an acclimatisation period of 7 days before test commencement.

The rabbits were uniquely identified within the study by means of an indelible number on the inner surface of the ear.

Test system

Preparation of test site:
clipped
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Amount / concentration applied:
0.5 ml was applied to intact skin on each rabbit under a 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm patch of gauze.
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hours
Observation period:
Skin reactions were assessed 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after each patch removal.
Number of animals:
3 animals (one males and two females)
Details on study design:
The patch was covered with Mircopore tape and the trunk was loosley bound with Elastoplast Elastic Bandage which remained in position for 4 hours. At the end of this period the patches were removed and the skin wiped with water dampened tissues to remove surplus test material without altering the existing response or the integrity of the epidermis.
