Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not irritating
Conclusions:
Geranyl phenylacetate was not irritating to rabbit skin after 24 hours exposure.
Executive summary:

A skin irritation study was performed in rabbits to assess the irritation potential of geranyl phenylacetate. Undiluted geranyl phenylacetate was applied under occlusion to the intact and abraded skin in rabbits for 24 hours. The rabbits were observed for signs of irritation.Geranyl phenylacetate was not irritating to rabbit skin after 24 hours exposure.
