Irritant / corrosive response data:

Intact skin:
At the 24-h reading time point, 1/6 rabbits had well defined erythema (score 2) and very slight edema (score 1), which had cleared completely within 72 h. 1/6 rabbits with no skin irritation effects at the 24-h reading time point had very slight erythema at the 72-h reading time point.

Abraded skin:
1/6 rabbits had well defined erythema (score 2) and slight edema (score 2) at the 24-h reading time point. The erythema was reduced in severity (score 1) at the 72-h reading time point, while the edema had cleared completely. Only the data on intact skin was considered for evaluation.
