Details on study design:
MAIN STUDY

An approximate 40 x 60mm area of dorsal skin on the scapular region was clipped free of hair prior to treatment

A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 2 - intadermal and topical
- Exposure period: 7 days for first induction and 14 days for second induction.
- Observations: 24hrs after the intradermal injections and once daily for 5 days. 24 and 48hrs after second induction.
- 0.05ml injection vol.
- Site for 2nd induction was pre-treared by massaging 0.3ml of 10% sodium dodecyl sulphate in water into the skin of animals in both groups on the day prior to topical inductionto illicit an inflammatory reaction.

B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day of challenge: Day 21
- Exposure period: 24hr occlusive bandage
- Test groups:
- Site: right flank
- Evaluation (hrs after challenge):24 and 48 hr after challenge.
Challenge controls:
10 animals with 0.2% Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose for the 1st induction, petrolatum for the 2nd induction. Challenge: 55% Abbott-172245 in petrolatum.
Positive control substance(s):
not required
Remarks:
Sensitivity tested periodically with α-hexylcinnamaldehyde
