The primary irritation index for this group of animals is 0.0 on a scale of 0.0 to 8.0. Slight irritation to one abraded site of one male animal was observed on the first day after exposure, while skins of the remaining five animals appeared normal throughout the study. One male rabbit showed slight irritation to one of the abraded sites on one day but the remaining five animals appeared normal throughout the study.
