Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The No Observed Adverse Effect level (NOAEL) for Dow Corning Q9-5700 is found to be 5.0 % w/w (1515.15 mg/Kg bw/day) when applied to shaved back and abdomen of rabbits.
- Executive summary:
Repeated dose dermal toxicity study was performed to determine the dermal toxic nature of Dow Corning Q9-5700. The study employed a fabric (nonwoven polyester) treated with Dow Corning Q9-5700 antimicrobial agent at 0, 0.5% or 5.0% w/w (0, 151.5 or 1515.15 mg/Kg bw/day). Approximately 60 square inches of fabric was allowed to contact the shaved back and abdomen of the rabbits for 6 hrs/day, 5 days/week for 4 weeks (20 applications). The skin of each rabbit was premoistened with normal saline to simulate perspiration. After the 6-hour contact period, the fabrics were removed, rinsed with tap water and patted dry.
No significant untoward alterations were observed with regards to mortality, reactions, effects on body weight, hematologic and clinical chemistry parameters, urine analysis, gross and microscopic pathologic examinations among any of the tested animals.
The No Observed Adverse Effect level (NOAEL) forDow Corning Q9-5700 is found to be 5.0 % w/w (1515.15 mg/Kg bw/day) when applied to shaved back and abdomen of rabbits.
