Results and discussion

In vivo

Results
Irritation parameter:
overall irritation score
Remarks:
maximum mean dermal irritation soore
Basis:
mean
Time point:
48 h
Score:
2.8
Max. score:
8
Reversibility:
fully reversible within: 7 days
Irritant / corrosive response data:
Slight to well-defined erythema with edema was reported for all 6 animals. This would translate to skin related effects with a score of 1 to 2.

Irritation was absent from all animals 7 days after treatment.
