other: shaved and right hand site abraded
Vehicle:
other: 50% aqueous solution of polyethylene glycol
Controls:
not required
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5 g or 1.5 ml

VEHICLE 50% PEG
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 1.5 ml applied on a 2.5 cm2 gauze pad
