Details on study design:
The undiluted substance did not cause any skin irritations in a preliminary study. The 100 % test compound was used for the first induction exposure.Because of moderate systemic effects during induction I, the concentration of the test substance was reduced to 50 % in corn oil for induction II and III.
The concentration used for challenge exposure, the highest non-irritating and nontoxic dose, was identified in the 4th week of the test on the animalsof the accompanying group, same age as the animals in the main test. On this basis and based on the results from the induction period, the 50 %
formulation of the test substance in corn oil was administered for challenge treatment..

Any other information on results incl. tables

There were no signs of dermal irritation on the rear of the right flank of the test animals and of the control animals 30 and 54 hours after administration. Nor were cutaneous reactions found in any test or control animal with the vehicle patch on the front of the right flank.

The test and control animals showed a normal body weight gain throughout the investigation.

During induction I, the test animals showed toxic symptoms like narcotic condition and half-closed eyes for about 24 hours after treatment.
