Executive summary:

Method

Study in 3 female rabbits by semiocclusive application of test material under a composite patch on clipped skin. Upon a 4 -hour exposure to the test material, patches were removed and the skin was rinsed with water. Observation and scoring at 1h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, 7 d and 14 d after application were done based on the Draize scale (1940).

Result

Animals were observed for erythema and oedema. A score was associated to each animal, averaging over results at 24, 48 and 72 hours. None of the animals showed any observable response to treatment throughout the observation period.
