Irritant / corrosive response data:
Very slight erythema (score 1) was observed in 2/3 rabbits 1 hour after exposure ended, and persisted in 1/3 rabbits up to and including the 72-hour reading time point (see Table 1). 1/3 animals had very slight oedema from the 1-hour reading time point up to and including the 48-hour reading time point. All irritiation effects had cleared completely within 7 days.
Other effects:
At the 72-hour reading time point, dry skin was noted at the test site in the rabbit that also showed very slight erythema.
