RESULTS

The incidence of positive animals per group and the individual challenge reactions are listed in Table 1, 2 and 3.

The individual animal weights at start and end of the test are listed in Table 4.

 

Under the experimental conditions employed, 0% of the animals of the test group showed skin reactions 24 and 48 h after removing the dressings.
