Any other information on results incl. tables

Maximum concentration not causing irritating effetcs in preliminary test: 50 %

Signs of irritation during induction:

None. Erythema could be scored due to brown discoulation:

 challenge concentration  number of animals
 25 %  19
 10 %  20
 5 %  20

Other observations:

A marked difference in the average body weight gain of experimental and control animals was noted.
