Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ANIMALS
- Source: The Broekman Institute, Someren, The Netherlands
- Age at study initiation: 13-15 weeks
- Weight at study initiation: 2.42-2.85 kg
- Housing: Individually in plastic cages with perforated floors.
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): Standard laboratory animal diet (LK-01, pellet diameter 4 mm; 100 g per day), obtained from Hope Farms, Woerden.
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): Tap water, ad libitum
- Acclimation period: 7 days

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 19.5-22.0
- Humidity (%): 60-80
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12

Test system

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:
shaved
Vehicle:
water
Controls:
other: untreated contralateral flank served as control
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5 mL

Test substance preparation: Approximately 5 g of test substance were scraped from the surface of the solid and transferred into a glass vial; before dose administration the test substance was heated to 60-70 °C, and 3 portions of 0.5 mL were transferred into aluminium vials using a plastic syringe. The portions of test substance were allowed to solidify in the vials. Each portion of test substance was spread on a 6 cm² patch of Metalline and applied to the animals as described below.

VEHICLE
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5 mL for moistening
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hours
Observation period:
1, 24, 48, 72 hours
Number of animals:
3 females
Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: 6 cm² of clipped area of 10 cm x 10 cm on the central back (right flank).
- Type of wrap if used: Test substance was spread on a 6 cm² patch of Metalline (Lohmann, FRG), mounted on permeable tape (Micropore, 3M, St. Paul, USA). Each portion of test substance was moistened with 0.5 mL of Milli-RO water (Millipore Corp., Bedford, Mass. USA). The patch containing the test substance was applied to the right flank of each animal, the left flank being covered with the same dressing without test substance. Finally, the animals were wrapped in flexible bandage (Coban, 3M, St. Paul, USA).

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): Yes, remaining test substance was removed, using a tissue moistened with tap-water
- Time after start of exposure: 4 hours

SCORING SYSTEM: Draize
