Irritant / corrosive response data:
Very slight erythema was noted at all treated skin sites at the 24 and 48-hour observations and at two treated skin sites at the 72-hour observation. Very slight edema was noted at all treated skin sites at the 24-hour observation and persisted at two treated skin site at the 48 and 72-hour observations.
Other effects:
Loss of skin elasticity was noted at one treated skin site at the 72-hour observation. Slight desquamation was noted at two treated skin sites at the 7-day observation.
