Strain:
New Zealand White

Test system

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:
clipped
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Duration of treatment / exposure:
The test article was kept in contact with the skin for three (3) minutes and scored for erythema and edema one hour following patch removal. Since the 3 minute exposure did not produce a definitive effect, two additional rabbits were added to the study. All three animals were dosed at site #2 for an exposure period of 1 hour and at site #3 for a four hour exposure. Each site was scored for erythema and edema one hour following patch removal, at 24, 48 and 72 hours and again on days 7 and 14.
Observation period:
Animals were observed for systemic signs at each dermal scoring interval.
Number of animals:
3 New Zealand White rabbits
Details on study design:
New Zealand White rabbits were received from Ace Animals, Boyertown, PA on 12/21/99. Following a quarantine period of at least one week, three healthy New Zealand White rabbits were selected for this test from a larger group.
The animals were born the weeks of 10/10 through 10/24/99. The pretest body weight was 2.0 kg. The animals were identified by cage notation and a uniquely numbered metal eartag. The animals were housed llcage in suspended cages. Bedding was placed beneath the cages and changed at least three timeslweek. Fresh Purina Rabbit Chow (Diet #5321) was provided daily. Water was available libitum.
The animal room, reserved exclusively for rabbits on acute tests, was temperature controlled, had a 12 hour lightidark cycle and was kept clean and vermin free.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
NE 1060 is not corrosive to rabbit skin. The modified Primarv Irritation Index is 0.
Executive summary:

The purpose of this study was to determine if the test article causes irreversible damage when applied to the rabbit skin.

Initially, one healthy New Zealand White rabbit was placed in a restrainer and dosed with NE 1060. The test article (0.5 ml) was placed on the intact skin of the back (Site 1). The test article was kept in contact

with the skin for three (3) minutes and scored for erythema and edema one hour following patch removal. Since the 3 minute exposure did not produce a definitive effect, two additional rabbits were added to the

study. All three animals were dosed at Site 2 for an exposure period of 1 hour and at Site 3 for a four hour exposure. Each site was scored for erythema and edema one hour following patch removal, at 24, 48, and 72 hours and again on Days 7 and 14. Animals were observed for systemic signs at each dermal scoring interval. A modified primary irritation index was calculated. Body weights were recorded pretest and at termination.

3 minute exposure: There was no erythema or edema.

1 hour exposure: There was no erythema or edema.

4 hour exposure: There was no erythema or edema.

Systemic observations: Two animals had diarrhea and soiling of the anogenital area. The remaining animal appeared normal during the observation period. Body weight changes were normal.
