Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not irritating
Conclusions:
2-methyl-p-phenylenediamine sulphate was applied on the skin of Hartley albino guinea pigs in the concentrations 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 5% and 10% in petrolatum for 48 hrs. No skin reaction were observed in any of the test animals in any of the test concentrations. Hence, 2-methyl-p-phenylenediamine sulphate was considered as not skin irritant
Executive summary:

2-methyl-p-phenylenediamine sulphate was used as a test material to evaluate skin irritation potential on 10 Hartley albino guinea pigs.

The test material was applied on the flanks of test animal in the concentrations of0.1%, 0.2%, 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 5% and 10% in petrolatum for 48 hrs under occlusion .

No skin reaction were observed in any of the test animals in any of the test concentrations. Hence,2-methyl-p-phenylenediamine sulphate was considered as not skin irritant.
