Any other information on results incl. tables

In the first animal well-defined erythema (grade 2) could be noted immediately after removal of the patch until hour 1. From hour 24 until hour 48, moderate erythema (grade 3) was seen in this animal. This finding increased to severe erythema (grade 4) at hour 72 and decreased to moderate erythema (grade 3) from day 7 until day 14. Slight edema (grade 2) was seen immediately after removal of the patch followed by moderate edema (grade 3) at hour 1 and severe edema (grade 4) at hour 24. This finding decreased to moderate edema (grade 3) from hour 48 to hour 72 and to very slight edema (grade 1) from day 7 until day 14. Both erythema and edema were noted beyond the application area over the entire observation period of 14 days. Moreover, blisters beyond the application area and a whitish discolored application area were seen in this animal at hour 48. Crusty as well as eczema-like skin lesions beyond the application area were seen at hour 72, while brownish discolored plaque-like incrustations and eczema-like skin lesions were seen on day 7. On day 14 scaling and incrustations were noted in this animal.

In the second animal well-defined erythema (grade 2) could be noted immediately after removal of the patch until hour 1. From hour 24 until day 14, moderate erythema (grade 3) was seen in this animal. Very slight edema (grade 1) was seen immediately after removal of the patch followed by slight edema (grade 2) at hour 1 and severe edema (grade 4) from hour 24 until hour 48. This finding decreased to moderate edema (grade 3) from hour 72 until day 7. Erythema and edema were noted beyond the application area. Moreover, blisters, bleeding and a whitish discolored application area beyond the application area were seen in this animal at hour 48. Brownish discolored crusty as well as eczema-like skin lesions beyond the application area were seen at hour 72, while

plaque-like incrustations and eczema-like skin lesions were seen on day 7. On day 14 scaling was noted in this animal, while incrustations had fallen off.

The cutaneous reactions were not reversible in the two animals within 14 days after removal of the patch. The first animal still revealed moderate erythema (grade 3) and very slight edema (grade 1) both beyond the application area, scaling and incrustations.

The second animal revealed moderate erythema (grade 3) beyond the application area and scaling. There was no indication of necrosis at study termination.

Mean scores over 24, 48 and 72 hours for each animal were 3.3 and 3.0 for erythema and 3.3 and 3.7 for edema.
