TEST ANIMALS
- Source: David Percival Ltd., Moston, Sandbach, Cheshire, U.K. and Rosemead Rabbits, Ilaltham Abbey, Essex, U.K
- Age at study initiation: 12-16 weeks old
- Weight at study initiation: 2.42-2.76 kg
- Housing: The animals were individually housed in suspended metal cages.
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): Free access to mains drinking water and food (Rabbit Diet, Preston Farmers Limited, New Leake, Boston, Lincolnshire, U.K. ) was allowed throughout the study.
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): Free access to mains drinking water and food (Rabbit Diet, Preston Farmers Limited, New Leake, Boston, Lincolnshire, U.K. ) was allowed throughout the study.
- Acclimation period: 5 days

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 17-19
- Humidity (%): 48-50
- Air changes (per hr): 15
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12

Test system

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:
clipped
Vehicle:
water
Controls:
no
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5g

VEHICLE
A quantity of 0.5g of the test material moistened with 0.5 m1 of distilled water was introduced under a 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm gauze patch and placed in position on the shorn skin.

Duration of treatment / exposure:
4h
Observation period:
72h
Number of animals:
3
Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm
- Type of wrap if used: The patch was secured in position over the test material with a strip of surgical adhesfve tape (BLENDERM: approximate size 2.5 cm x 4.0 cm). To prevent the animals from interfering with the patches the trunk of each rabbit was wrapped in an elasticated
corset (TUBIGRIP)

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): the corset and patches were removed from each animal and any residual test material removed by gentle swabbing with cotton wool soaked in distilled water.
- Time after start of exposure: 4h


OBSERVATION TIME POINTS
(indicate if minutes, hours or days) : 1; 24; 48 & 72h after removal of the patches

SCORING SYSTEM:
- Method of calculation: Draize (1959) in the original report.
