Any other information on results incl. tables

The daily epicutaneous application of test substance over a period of 10 days for induction, induced rough scaling on the application area (flank). For challenge, epicutaneous application of 0.5 % test substance in acetone to the untreated right flank after a treatment-free period of 14 days induced questionable erythema in 5/10 animals.
