Details on study design:
A maximization test was carried out with test material at 12% in petrolatum on 29 healthy, male and female volunteers.
Application was done under occlusion to the same site on the forearms of all subjects for five alternate-day 48 hour periods.
Patch sites were pretreated for 24 hours with 7.5% aqueous sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) under occlusion for the initial patch only.
Following a ten to fourteen day rest period, challenge patches were applied at 12% under occlusion to fresh sites for 48 hours.
Challenge applications were preceded by 30 minute applications of 7.5% aqueous SLS under occlusion on the left side whereas the test material was applied without SLS treatment on the right side. A fifth site challenged with petrolatum served as control.
