Strain:
New Zealand White

Test system

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:
other: closely-clipped
Vehicle:
water
Controls:
no
Amount / concentration applied:
500 mg, undiluted
6 cm² moistened gauze pad
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 h
Observation period:
72 h
Number of animals:
3
Details on study design:
A single dose of 500 mg of the test substance was applied to the closely-clipped skin of the flank (6 cm² moistened gauze pad). The test substance was held in contact with the skin by means of a semi-occlusive dressing. Cutaneous reactions were observed approximately one hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of the dressing.
The test substance was applied in a first assay for a period of 3 minutes and 4 hours to one male New Zealand White rabbit. Since the test substance was not irritating in this first assay, the test substance was applied for 4 hours to two other males in a second assay.
The mean values of the scores for erythema and oedema were calculated for each animal.
