Method

Ethical approval:

confirmed and informed consent free of coercion received

Details on study design:

Eight test articles in addition to a positive control (0.5% sodium lauryl sulfate in distilled water) and the negative irritant controls (distilled water and mineral oil USP) were tested simultaneously. The test articles (0.2 ml) were applied to a non woven cotton pad (Webril) which was held securely on two opposing sides by a strip of hypoallergenic tape. Glycerine was tested as a 25% solution in mineral oil.

A one application, 24-hour semi-occluded patch study was conducted to compare the skin irritancy potential of the test articles. Negative controls of distilled water and mineral oil USP and a positive control of 0.5% sodium lauryl sulfate were also tested.

Thirty female subjects and 3 male subjects entered and completed the study.

Exposure assessment:

measured

Details on exposure:

Test material was applied to the paraspinal region of the back. 0.2 ml was applied on the patch pad which was attached to the skin. Exposure was semi-occluded.

Results and discussion

Results:

No reactions were seen in the test subjects where glycerin or the vehicle, mineral oil was applied.

Any other information on results incl. tables

No additional information available.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

Under the conditions of the study, Glycerine USP (25% concentration) exhibited no clinical irritation when tested in humans.

Executive summary:

The dermal irritation potential was examined in 33 humans, 30 female and 3 male. Under the conditions of the study, Glycerine USP (25% concentration) exhibited no clinical irritation when tested in humans.
