Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
A single, 24 hour application of test material was made to the clipped abraded abdominal skin of ten New Zealand White animals weighing 1.9 to 2.2 kg. The animals were wrapped with binders of rubber dam, gauze and adhesive tape. Following exposure, the binders were removed and observations made for mortality and toxic effects for a period of 7 days. A gross necropsy was performed on all animals at the termination of the study.
