Details on study design:
TYPE OF TEST USED: patch test (epicutaneous test)

ADMINISTRATION
- Type of application: occlusive (55 subjects) / semiocclusive (49 subjects)
- Description of patch: Readi-Bandage (Professional Medical Products)
- Preparation of patch site: thoroughly cleansed with 70% isopropyl alcohol prior to patching
- Concentrations: undiluted
- Volume applied: 0.2 mL
- Testing/scoring schedule: A series of 9 induction patches were applied for a period of 3 weeks on mondays, wednesdays and fridays. Patches were removed after 24 hours, and reactions scored after a rest period of 24 or 48 hours. After the induction phase a rest period of two weeks followed. Then, the challenge patch was applied for 24 hours to a virgin site and reactions were scored after 24, 48, and 72 hours.
- Induction site: left upper back
- Challenge site: right upper back
- Removal of test substance: after 24 h

EXAMINATIONS
- Grading/Scoring system: The (modified) scoring scale of the International Contact Dermatitis Research Group System: Fisher A.A. (1973). Contact Dermatitis Lea & Febiger, Philadelphia, 29.
