Results and discussion

In vivo

Irritant / corrosive response data:
When exposures were terminated, all treated sites were thick and erythematous; surface dermatolysis was present in 3 of the animals.
Subsequently, these sites became dry, hard and concave,. This reaction is characteristic of dry necrosis.

Any other information on results incl. tables

When exposures were terminated, all treated sites were thick and erythematous; surface dermatolysis was present in three of the animals. Subsequently these sites became dry, hard, and concave. This reaction is characteristic of dry necrosis.

Under these experimental conditions, mono-n-propylamine is considered as corrosive to the skin.
