Healthy New Zealand White rabbits (Porton strain) aged 3 -• 4 months with average body weights of 3.73 Kgs. (male) and 3.30 Kgs. (female), bred on. the premises and maintained under a semi-barrier system. Six rabbits (3 male and 3 female) were acclimatized in the test area for one week prior to the start of the trial.
Husbandry:
The rabbits were caged singly in an experimental room maintained at a temperature of 20°C. (±1°) and a relative humidity of 50-70 %. Animals were exposed to artificial light for 15 hours daily from 08.00 - 23.00 hours. A commercial irradiated diet (Styles-Oxoid) was fed ad lib. Sterile filtered water was available at all times. - Type of coverage:
- occlusive
- Preparation of test site:
- abraded
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Controls:
- no
- Amount / concentration applied:
- 0.5 ml. of the compound was applied on a 2.5 cm. square sterile gauze pad to each test site
- Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 24 hrs
- Observation period:
- 72 hrs
- Number of animals:
- 6 aminals (3 male and 3 female)
- Details on study design:
- The test was carried out according to the method given in the "Hazardous Substances Regulations" under the U.S. Federal Hazardous Substances Labelling Act Sect. 191.11 (February 1965).
Twenty-four hours prior to the dermal application, the backs of the rabbits were shaved over an area consisting of at least 10% of the total body surface. Two test sites lateral to the mid line of the back were used on each rabbit. Immediately before the application of the test compound, the right hand site was abraded with the point of a sterile hypodermic needle. The abrasions were sufficiently deep to penetrate the stratum corneum but not to damage the dermis. The left hand site remained intact.
0.5 ml. of the compound was applied on a 2.5 cm. square sterile gauze pad to each test site. These were covered with aluminium foil secured with "Sleek" adhesive tape. The test sites were then enclosed by a 6" wide "Coban" self adhesive bandage the edges of which were fixed to the skin by strips of "Sleek" in order to retain the test substance in close contact with the skin.
After 24 hours the dressing was removed and the intact and abraded application sites were assessed for oedema and erythema. A further assessment was made at 72 hours.
The assessment of the macroscopic skin reaction was made according to Draie grading system. - Irritation parameter:

The patch test technique as described in the "Appraisal of the Safety of Chemicals in Foods, Drugs and Cosmetics" (1959) of the US Association of Food and Drug Officials (AFDO) was followed.
Before starting, the animals were acclimatized for at least 8 days to a constant room temperature of 18±1°C, a relative humidity of 55±5% and 14 hours light/day. They were housed singly in metal cages (overall dimensions 47x32x34 cm), A standard diet of Nafag and drinking water were given ad libitum .
6 rabbits (3 male; 3 female) of the Russian breed, weighing 1.4 to 1.7 kg, were shaved one day before treatment with an electric clipper on the flanks. The shaved skin area on the left side was slightly scarified just before treatment. A gauze patch of 2.5 x 2.5 cm laden with the test substance was applied immediately to the prepared skin. The patch was covered with an impermeable foil of 5x5 cm, which was fixed to the body of the animals with adhesive tape.
FAT65004/A was applied to each side in quantities of 0.5 g . Before application the test material was wetted with tap water. The gauze patches were removed 24 hours after application. The reaction
of the skin was appraised upon removal during an observation period of 8 days. - Irritation parameter:

Results
Preparation FAT 65 004/A was found to cause minimal irritation (mean reaction score after 24 hours: 0.2) when applied to intact and slight irritation (mean reaction score after 24 hours: 1.2) when applied to abraded rabbit skin.
It can be noted that abrasion on skin causes epidermal injury and further expected to cause the skin irritation and adverse effects to epidermis. This reaction could be referred to the damage caused due to abrasion rather than due to the test substance application. In general abrasion is an elevated testing condition and results normally do not have to be taken into account for hazard assessment.

(female), bred on the premises and maintained under a semi-barrier system were used. Six rabbits (3 male and 3 female) were acclimatised in the test area for one week prior to the start of the trial.
The eyes of the experimental animals were examined and found normal prior to the test.
0.1 ml. of the test compound was instilled into the conjunctival sac of the left eye. The eyelids were then held closed for 1 second. The right eye served as a control. After 30 seconds the compound was, as far as possible, flushed out of the eyes of three of the rabbits with 30 ml. of warm sterile water. The rabbits were examined 1, 6, 24, 43 and 72 hours after application of the test compound and for any further period that was considered necessary. The ocular reactions were scored by the method described in "Appraisal of the Safety of Chemicals in Food Drugs and cosmetics" page 51, published by the Association of Food and Drug Officials of the USA.
Up to 1 hour after application compound was visible in 4/6 animals. No eye reactions occurred.
Compound FAT 65 004/A is not an eye irritant in the albino rabbit.

Additional information
Skin:
There are 3 key studies available to evaluate the skin irritation potential of FAT 65004.
In all the three key studies6 rabbits (3 males and 3 females), were shaved and the test substance applied on abraded and intact skin of the animals. 0.5 g/of the solid was mixed to a paste with 0.5ml of water before application to each treatment siteor 0.5ml unchanged test substances was applied and thepatch was covered with an impermeable foil, which was fixed to the body of the animals with adhesive tape.
After 24 hours exposure, the patches were removed and the resulting reactions were evaluated.The reactionof the skin was appraised upon removal during an observation period of 7daysstarting 24 hrs.
In all the three studiesPreparation FAT 65004 was found to cause minimal irritationwhen applied to intact, and moderate irritation when applied toabraded rabbit skin.The reaction consisted of very slight to slight erythema andedema.All the reactions were completely reversible by the end of 72-96 hrs.
It can be noted that abrasion on skin causes epidermal injury and further expected to cause the skin irritation and adverse effects to epidermis. This reaction could be referred to the damage caused due to abrasion rather than due to the test substance application. In general abrasion is an elevated testing condition and results normally do not have to be taken into account for hazard assessment.
In another (support study) repeated application study5 ml of the test material were distributed evenly onto a gauze patchof 4 x 5 cm and placed on one side of the animal while another gauzepatch (Carboxymethylcellulose 0.5% ) was placed on the other side of the animalfor a control. These patches were covered with occlusive dressingsand secured with an adhesive tape without contact between adhesivetape and the depilated skin.Dressing and test material were removed very carefully after 24 hoursand the skin reaction evaluated according to Draize ("Appraisal ofthe Safety of Chemicals in Foods, Drugs and Cosmetics", 1959 ofthe AFD0)with the aid of theevaluation scheme.This procedure was repeated for a total of 5 consecutive days. Thefifth dressing was removed 8 hours after the application and the skinreaction recorded.The skin reaction was recorded again on day 8. Preparation FAT 65 004 was found to cause increasing irritation from slight (day 1) to extreme (day 4) when applied repeatedly to the rabbit skin. This data is not been considered for evaluation here since this study deals with repeated application of the test substance over a period of 5 days.
Based on the data from three key studies its concluded that test substance FAT 65 004 is not-irritating to rabbit skin
Eye:
Three studies are available adressing the eye irritation potential of the test substance FAT 65004. Test substance was instilled in the eyes of 3 male and 3 female rabbits and observations for irritation and observed over a period of 8 days. Test reults in all the three studies indicate FAT 65004 to be practically non irritant when applied to the rabbit eye mucosa.
