Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test material (4 %) does not appear to be a primary skin irritant or fatiguing agent. No sensitization reactions were noted. Exposure to UV-A light does not appear to initiate or increase the incidence and severity of irritation, fatigue or sensitization.
Executive summary:

A panel of 50 male and female human volunteers participated in a repeat insult patch test in which the test material (4 %) was applied to the upper arms of the subjects under semi-occlusive patches. During the induction phase nine patches were applied, separated by a 48-hour interval. The patches were removed 24 hours after application. Following a 14-day rest period, a challenge patch was applied and the sites scored 24, 48 and 72 hours after application. A subset of 20 subjects selected from the group of 50 subjects was simultaneously studied for photosensitization. 15 minute irradiation period were applied at application 1, 4, 7, 9 and at challenge application on the opposite arms.

The test material does not appear to be a primary skin irritant or fatiguing agent. No sensitization reactions were noted. Exposure to UV-A light does not appear to initiate or increase the incidence and severity of irritation, fatigue or sensitization.
