Test animals

Species:
rat
Strain:
Wistar
Sex:
male/female
Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
Age : 8 to 10 weeks
Sex : Male and female
Body weight range : 200±20g
Identification : By cage tag and corresponding colour body marking
Acclimatization : The healthy wistar albino rats selected for study acclimatized to standard laboratory condition for period of one week under close Veterinary supervision.
Randomization : After acclimation and veterinary examination randomly selected in groups of three females.
Randomization: After acclimation and Veterinary examination all the animals randomly divided into two groups and each group having five male and five female rats.
Nutritional conditions: Animals were fasted overnight prior to test and food was offered three hours after dosing.

Administration / exposure

Type of coverage:
open
Vehicle:
water
Remarks:
distilled water
Details on dermal exposure:
The test drug 3-acetamido-5-amino-4-hydroxybenzenesulphonic acid applied dermally under impervious gauze at the dose level of 2000 mg/kg b.wt in Group-I, II respectively. The test compound held in contact for period of 24 hrs. After 24 hrs, test compound was removed and wash with luke warm water and observed for clinical signs of intoxication and mortality at different time interval for a period of 14 days. The body weight of each rat was observed on day 0 (pre treatment), 7th and 14th (post treatment). The necropsy was performed on all animals which was died during the study or were sacrificed at termination of the study.
Duration of exposure:
24hrs.
Doses:
2000 mg/kg bwt
No. of animals per sex per dose:
5
Control animals:
yes, concurrent vehicle
Details on study design:
The test substance was applied uniformly over an exposed area of skin. The test compound was held in contact with the skin with an impervious dressing secured in place with an adhesive tape. The animals were then housed individually in cages with a collar around the neck in order to avoid the ingestion of the test compound. After 24 hours, the dressing was removed and the site of application was cleaned with lukewarm water wiping the test compound.
