ADMINISTRATION
- Type of application: occlusive
- Description of patch:Readi-Band clear plastic patches, which are approximately 1 1/2 inch square and contain a 3/4 inch square nonwoven Webril center are utilized for all patch applications
- Vehicle / solvent: PEG-400
- Concentrations: 10 %
- Volume applied: 0.1 mL
- Testing/scoring schedule:
Induction phase: Application was done on three consecutive days. Patch was in contact with the skin for 23 hours. Grading for irritation approx. 30 to 60 minutes after Patch removal.
Challenge phase: One application, 12 days after the last induction application. Application and scoring pattern was similar to the induction phase. Additionally, delayed reactions were scored after 48 and 72 hours.
- Removal of test substance: no data

EXAMINATIONS
- Grading/Scoring system: Draize scoring
