Results and discussion

In vivo

Resultsopen allclose all
Irritation parameter:
erythema score
Basis:
mean
Remarks:
out of all 3 animals (intact skin)
Time point:
other: mean out of 24 and 72 h
Score:
1.89
Max. score:
4
Reversibility:
not fully reversible within: 72 h
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).
Irritation parameter:
edema score
Basis:
mean
Remarks:
out of all 3 animals (intact skin)
Time point:
other: mean out of 24 and 72 h
Score:
0.78
Max. score:
4
Reversibility:
not fully reversible within: 72 h
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).
Irritant / corrosive response data:
At 24 h slight to moderate erythema and slight edema was noted. At the 72 h readings well-defined erythema and very slight edema was noted.
Other effects:
no data
