Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test material at a concentration of 10 % did not cause skin irritation in the human patch test.
Executive summary:

The test material was tested for its potential to cause skin irritation in the human patch test. The concentration of the substance was 10 % (suspension in white petrolatum). The test area on the body was the shoulderblade. As testing patch Leukosilk was used. The time of exposition was 24 hours and skin reactions were evaluated 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. The preparation was tested on 43 persons (18 male, 25 female). 23 persons had eczema of various kinds. As a result, no skin reactions were observed and therefore the material was considered to not cause skin irritation.
