Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 404 (Acute Dermal Irritation / Corrosion)
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Before OECD Guideline 404 was established in 1984, skin irritation was tested using an internal method (BASF Test); the procedure of which is similar to OECD TG 404.
GLP compliance:
no
Remarks:
pre-GLP study

Irritant / corrosive response data:
24-hour reading:
In one animal, questionable redness was observed at the dorsal skin that had been treated with the test substance for one minute; no signs of irritation were noted at the respective skin site of the other animal. Questionable and slight redness was observed at the dorsal areas treated for 5 minutes and longer in one animal each. Slight redness was noted at the auricular skin of both animals.

8-day reading:
No signs of irritation were observed at any skin site.
