Test animals
- Species:
- rabbit
- Strain:
- New Zealand White
- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ANIMALS
- Source:
New Zealand White rabbits were supplied by SUKA FLAT.
- Age at study initiation: Not stated
- Weight at study initiation:
At the start of the study the animals were in the weight range of 3.49 to 3.82 Kg
- Housing: Animals were kept in metal bracket cages.
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): Solid feed for test animals (RC-4)
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): Tap water with chlorine added
- Acclimation period: Not Stated
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 20 to 26℃
- Humidity (%): 30 to 70%
- Air changes (per hr):
All-fresh ventilation of 10 to 15 cycles per hour
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light):
The lighting was controlled by a time switch to give twelve hours continuous light (07:00 to 19:00) and twelve hours darkness.
Test system
- Type of coverage:
- occlusive
- Preparation of test site:
- other: On the day before treatment the hair on both sides of the body of each rabbit was clipped using clippers. Healthy rabbits without island skin were selected.
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Controls:
- no
- Amount / concentration applied:
- TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit):
0.5 g
- Concentration (if solution):
Not applicable.
VEHICLE
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit):
Not stated
- Concentration (if solution):
Not applicable.
- Lot/batch no. (if required):
Not given in study report. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hours- Observation period:
- Observations of the application site were conducted 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours, and 1 week after removing the patches.
- Number of animals:
3- Details on study design:
- TEST SITE
- Area of exposure:
The patches were applied to the left and right sides of each animal’s back.
- % coverage:
Not given in study report.
- Type of wrap if used:
Patches were created by placing cotton lint sized 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm on surgical tape. The cloth was coated with 0.5 g of the test article, and after applying the patch to the skin on the clipped site of the animals, the patch was occlusively covered for 4 hours with stretchable adhesive tape. The patches were applied to the left and right sides of each animal’s back.
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): None. 4 hours after adhesion, the tape and patches were removed.
- Time after start of exposure:
4 hours.
SCORING SYSTEM:
Observations of the application site were conducted 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours, and 1 week after removing the patches, and skin irritation was assessed in accordance with the following judgment criteria:
Judgment criteria:
A. Erythema and eschar formation
0: No erythema
1: Very slight erythema (barely perceptible)
2: Well-defined erythema
3: Moderate to severe erythema
4: Severe erythema (beef redness) or eschar formation preventing grading of erythema (lesion in deep area)
B. Edema formation
0: No edema
1: Very slight edema (barely perceptible)
2: Slight edema (edges of area well defined by definite raising)
3: Moderate edema (raised approximately 1 mm)
4: Severe edema (raised more than 1 mm and extending beyond area of exposure) Observations for changes in scaling, coloration, and corrosion were also conducted.
Risk Assessment:
1) Analysis method:
After calculating scores relating to erythema and edema for each animal based on the judgment criteria, mean values for each reading time were calculated for each test article.
2) Risk assessment:
Based on the above scores, risks were classified as described below in accordance with Annex VI of the European Council Directive Annex.
R35: Causes severe burns
Full thickness destruction of skin tissue occurs as a result of exposure of up to three minutes.
R34: Causes burns
Full thickness destruction of skin tissue occurs as a result of exposure of up to four hours.
R38: Irritating to skin
(1) Cases where one of the following occurs at scores of 24, 48, and 72 hours after removal of the patch and exposure of up to 4 hours, or where one of the following continues for at least 24 hours after exposure.
a. The mean value of the scores for either erythema and eschar formation or edema formation is 2 or more.
b. Erythema and eschar formation or edema formation of a score of 2 or more that is calculated for each animal separately is observed in two or more animals.
(2) Cases where skin irritation continues in two or more animals at the time of final observations (14 days after application of patch).
