Specific details on test material used for the study:
TREATMENT OF TEST MATERIAL PRIOR TO TESTING
The test item was prepared directly before administration. For that purpose the test item was moistened sufficiently with the vehicle and grounded in a mortar using a pestle. The stability in the vehicle was not investigated. The test item preparation was administered within <1 hour after preparation.
