Test system

Type of coverage:

Preparation of test site:
other: left side of the back: shaved, right side of the back: shaved and abraded
Vehicle:
other: polyethylene glycol 400
Controls:
no
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5 g
10g of the test compound was mixed with 10 ml of a 50% aqueous solution of polyethylene glycol 400 to make a suspension of 20 ml, 1.0 ml of which was applied to each test site on a 2.5 cm square gauze pad.

VEHICLE
- Concentration (if solution): 50%
Duration of treatment / exposure:
24 hours
Observation period:
6 days
Number of animals:
3 male and 3 female rabbits
Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: back
(Twenty four hours prior to the dermal application, the backs of the rabbits were shaved over an area consisting of at least 10% of the total body surface. Two test sides lateral to the mid line of the back were used on each rabbit. Immediately before the application of the test compound, the right hand side was abraded with the point of a sterile hypodermic needle. The abrasions were sufficiently deep to penetrate the stratum corneum, but not to damage the dermis. The left hand side remained intact.)
- % coverage: 10%
- Type of wrap if used: Gauze pads were covered with aluminium foil secured with "Transpore"-surgical tape. The test sites were then covered by a 6" wide "Coban" self adhesive bandage in order to retain the test substance in close contact with the skin.

SCORING SYSTEM:
Primary Irritation Score
