- Known diseases: healthy - Ethical approval:
- not specified
- Route of exposure:
- dermal
- Reason of exposure:

- not specified
- Details on exposure:
- 70 µl of the test item was applied on the upper arm (Large Finn chamber) and left theier for 24 h under occlusive conditions.Erythema and edema scores were noted after 1, 24, 48, 72 and 144 h after removal of test item.
- Examinations:
- Erythema, edema
Results and discussion
- Clinical signs:
- Only one volunteer showed erythema and edema. The reactions were located in the area of the patch but not where the test item was applied.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The test item is well-tolerated by human skin. No signs of irritation were observed.
- Executive summary:
The toxic-irritative effect of the test item was investigated in the modified During-chamber test in five volunteers. No reactions were observed (erythema-edema). The test item is considered to be tolerated well on human skin.
