- Preparation of test site:
- shaved
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Controls:
- other: not required, untreated sites of the same animal served as control
- Amount / concentration applied:
- 0.5 mL
- Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 4 hours
- Observation period:
- 7 days Reading time points: 4.5, 24, 48, and 72 h and 7 days after treatment)
- Number of animals:
- 6 (3 males, 3 females)
- Details on study design:
- TEST SITE- Area of exposure: approximately 6 cm²- Type of wrap if used: The area was covered with a 2.5 cm² surgical gauze pad (Johnson & Johnson). This was held in place with 3 inch Johnson & Johnson hypo-allergenic cloth tape, semi-occlusively. Animals were collared for the deration of the exposure to preclude access to the siteREMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE- Washing (if done): Remaining test article was gently washed from the skin with water and paper towels.- Time after start of exposure: 4 hSCORING SYSTEM: Each site was then individually examined and scored at 30 and 60 minutes following unwrapping for erythema and edema according to the Draize Scoring System.OTHERThe hair of the mid-dorsal area of the trunk of each animal, between scapulae and pelvis, was shaved using an Oster small animal clipper with surgical head (#40). Care was taken to avoid abrasion of the skin during clipping. Prior to dose application, animals were placed into wooden restrainers.
