Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the test, the study considered Basic Brown 16 to be not irritating to rabbit skin.
Executive summary:

The test substance was applied by topical semi-occlusive application of 0.5 g to the intact left flank of each of three young adult New Zealand White rabbits. The duration of treatment was four hours. The scoring of skin reactions was performed 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of the dressing. The mean score was calculated across 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal) for each animal for erythema/eschar grades and for oedema grades, separately.

The mean erythema/eschar score and the mean oedema score was 0 for all three animals.The application of Basic Brown 16 to the skin resulted in no signs of irritation. However slight brown staining of the treated skin produced by the test item was observed in all animals at the 1 and 24-hour reading. No corrosive effects were noted on the treated skin of any animal at any of the measuring intervals and no clinical signs were observed. Thus, the test item did not induce significant or irreversible damage to the skin.

Thus based on the experimental observation and result it is concluded that the test substance Basic Brown 16 is not irritating to rabbit skin.
