Details on study design:
RANGE FINDING TESTS: A preliminary irritation study was conducted in order to select test substance concentrations to be used in the main study. For the induction exposures the highest possible concentration that produced mild to moderate irritation (grades 2 - 3) was used. For challenge exposure the maximum non-irritant concentration was used. Practical feasibility of administration determined the highest starting-concentration for each route. The starting- and subsequent concentrations were taken from the series: 100% (undiluted), 50%, 20%, 10%, 5%, 2%, 1% and if needed, further lower concentrations using the same steps. For intradermal induction the highest concentration was the maximum concentration that could technically be injected.

Any other information on results incl. tables

Since comparable skin reactions were observed in one control animal and based on the inconsistency in results, it was considered that all reactions observed were signs of non-specific irritation.
