Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- The substance was applied to each side in quantities of 0.5 g. Before application a 50 % polyethylene glycol trituration (PEG 400) was made.
Duration of treatment / exposure:
24 hours
Observation period:
72 hours
Number of animals:
6 animals: 3 males, 3 females
Details on study design:
TEST SITE
A gauze patch 2.5 x 2.5 cm was soaked with the test substance and immediately applied to the prepared skin. The patch was covered with a plastic film 5 x 5 cm, which was fixed to the body with adhesive tape. The test substance was applied to each side in quantities of 0.5 g. Before application a 50 % polyethylene glycol trituration (PEG 400) was made.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
The gauze patches were removed 24 hours after the application. The reaction of the skin was appraised upon removal and 72 hours after it, on the basis of the following evaluation scheme.

SCORING SYSTEM:
Erythema and Eschar Formation:
No erythema; 0
Very slight erythema (barely perceptible); 1
Well defined erythema; 2
Moderate to severe erythema; 3
Severe erythema (beet redness) to slight eschar formation (injuries in depth); 4
Total possible erythema score; 4

Edema Formation
No edema; 0
Very slight edema (barely perceptible); 1
Slight edema (edges of area well defined by definite raising; 2
Moderate edema (raised approximately 1 mm); 3
Severe edema (raised more than 1 mm and extending beyond area of exposure); 4
Total possible edema score; 4
