Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the present study no signs of irritation were seen.
Executive summary:

The current study was performed under GLP-compliance according to the OECD Guideline for Testing of Chemicals, No. 404 and the recommendations of DRAIZE (1959). To test for primary skin irritation, 0.5 g of the test material was mixed with some drops of Aqua pro injectione to ensure good contact with the skin. Afterwards the test material was spread onto 6 cm² patches and applied to the intact skin of previously shaven rabbits for a 4 hours period under semi-occlusive conditions. The study was started as an initial test with one animal and followed by the confirmatory test with two further animals. The first examination of the treated skin sites followed 1 hour after removal of the patches. Thereafter, examinations were performed daily for further 7 days. Under the conditions of the present study no signs of irritation were seen.
