Observation period:
72h
Number of animals:
3
Details on study design:
About 24 hours before the start of the study the hair in the dorsal region of the body of 3 rabbits was removed with an electric clipper over an area of about 25 cm2. Only animals with intact skin were used.

Each animal was treated with 0.5 mL Isodecylethernitril. The substance was applied over the whole surface of a 2.5 x 2.5 cm cellulose patch on a piece of surgical plaster (specially produced by Beiersdorf Aktiengesellschaft). The plaster was fixed to the prepared skin area and then covered with a semi-occlusive bandage.

The exposure period was 4 hours. After the exposure period all remnants of the test substance were carefully removed from the skin with warm tap water.

Examinations of the skin took place after 30 - 60 minutes as well as 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of the patches.

Erythema, eschar formation and oedema were evaluated numerically according to the score of DRAIZE. All other changes of the skin were recorded.

Irritant / corrosive response data:
24 hours after removal of the piaster very slight erythema were observed in all animals. 48 hours after removal of the piaster all signs of irritation were reversible.

Based on the individual scores for erythema and oedema after 24, 48 and 72 hours, the following mean values were calculated:

Erythema and eschar formation
all animals: 0.3
animal 22: 0.3
animal 39: 0.3
animal 89: 0.3

Oedema formation
all animals: 0.0
animal 22: 0.0
animaI 39: 0.0
animal 89: 0.0
