Test system

Type of coverage:: semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:: shaved
Vehicle:: other: ethanol:diethyl phtalate (1:1 w/w)
Controls:: other: a site of each animal served as vehicle control
Amount / concentration applied:: TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit):
- Concentration (if solution): 100, 20, 10, 5, 1 and 0 % on each animal
