Details on study design:
RANGE FINDING TESTS:
Several animals were used to pretest the test material and vehicles to determine the dermal irritation threshold concentration. These animals were shaved on the left flank, to which was applied a 2 x 2 cm filter paper patch which contained 0.2 mL of the test concentration. The trunks of the animals are wrapped for 24 hours with a three inch wide elastic bandage to hold the patch in contact with the skin. Wrappings were removed after the 24 h exposure and, based on skin reactions at 48 h, a concentration of the test material to be used on main test is determined.

MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 2
- Exposure period: 48 hours
- Test groups: 15
- Control group: 6
- Site: shoulder region
- Frequency of applications: Three pairs of intradermal injections (Induction stage 1, intradermal induction) and once (induction stage 2, epicutaneous induction)
- Duration: 14 days (induction stage 1 and induction stage 2)
- Concentrations: 10 %

B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: 1
- Exposure period: 24 hours
- Test groups: 15
- Control group: 3 (The remaining three animals were reserved for possible rechallenge.)
- Site: shoulder flanks
- Concentrations: 10 %
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 21 hours

OTHER:

a. If the first challenge is negative, then a second challenge will be performed one week later on the test group and three naive control animals.

b. The concentration (generally, between 1-5%) of test article in vehicle and in FCA that can be injected i.d. without eliciting a strong local or systemic toxic reaction will be used. This will be determined by preliminary experimentation.

c. For induction stage 2, a concentration of test article in vehicle will be determined prior to the study start date. The concentration will be the highest level that can be well tolerated locally and generally by the guinea pig, but yet is mildly irritating (if possible).

d. The highest concentration of test article in vehicle found to be nonirritating to the guinea pig skin by preliminary experimentation will be used for challenge application.

e. Pretest performed to determine concentrations for b.c and/or d. if necessary.
