Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ANIMALS
- Source: RCC Ltd, Biotechnology and Animal Breeding, Füllinsdorf, Switzerland
- Age at study initiation: 8 weeks (males) and 12 weeks (females)
- Weight at dosing: 249.3 - 290.2 g (males) and 190.6 - 207.8 g (females)
- Housing: During acclimatization in groups of 5/sex in Makrolon type-4 cages with standard softwood bedding. Individually in Makrolon type-3 cages with standard softwood bedding during treatment and observation.
- Diet: Pelleted standard Provimi Kliba 3433 rat/mouse maintainance diet (Provimi Kliba AG, Kaiseraugst, Switzerland), ad libitum
- Water: Community tap water, ad libitum
- Acclimation period: 20 - 26 Feb 2003
- Microbiological status when known : SPF

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 22 ± 3
- Humidity (%): 30 - 70 (values > 70% during cleaning process possible)
- Air changes (per hr): 10 - 15
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12

Administration / exposure

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Vehicle:
polyethylene glycol
Remarks:
PEG 300
Details on dermal exposure:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: clipped skin on the back of the animals
- % coverage: approximately 10%
- Type of wrap if used: The test material was held in contact with a semi-occlusive dressing. The dressing was wrapped around the abdomend and fixed with an elastic adhesive bandage.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing: The skin was flushed with lukewarm tap water and dried with disposable paper towels.
- Time after start of exposure: 24 h

TEST MATERIAL
- Amount applied: 4 mL/kg bw
- Concentration: 0.5 g/mL
- Constant volume or concentration used: yes

VEHICLE
- Amount applied: 4 mL/kg bw
Duration of exposure:
24 h
Doses:
2000 mg/kg bw
No. of animals per sex per dose:
5
Control animals:
no
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations: The animals were observed daily during acclimatisation and twice daily during Days 1-5 for mortality and viabilitx. Clinical signs of toxicity were recorded daily during acclimatisation and at approx. 1, 2, 3 and 5 h after administration in test Day 1. Thereafter, the animals were observed once daily during Days 2-15.
- Frequency of weighing: On test Days 1 (prior to administration), 8 and 15
- Necropsy of survivors performed: Yes. All animals were killed at the end of the observation period by an intraperitoneal injection of Vetanarcol at a dose of at least 2.0 mL/kg body weight (equivalent to at least 324 mg sodium pentobarbitone/kg body weight) and underwent macroscopic examinations. No organs or tissues were retained.
Statistics:
No statistical analysis was used.
