Irritation parameter:
erythema score
Basis:
mean
Remarks:
out of 6 animals
Time point:
other: mean (24,48,72 h)
Score:
0
Max. score:
4
Remarks on result:
other: No 48 h data are available; for calculation of mean scores, the 48 h values were assumed to be the same as those at 24 h (worst case assumption: persistence of effects seen at 24 h over 48 h).
