Method

Details on study design:
The test concentration of the substance was a 5% suspension in white petrolatum. The test area on the body was the shoulderblade. The test was performed by the patch skin test. As testing patch Leukosilk was used. The time of exposition was 24 hours. The reaction to the test was examined immediately after removal of the testing patch and 24 hours later. The Interpretation of the test reaction was based on the criteria of the International Contact Dermatitis Research Group.
