Irritant / corrosive response data:
The application for 1, 5 or 15 minutes on the back led to no findings within 8 days. After application for 20 hours, on the back, slight erythema was recorded with individual hemorrhages at 24 hours. Circumscribed crusts (lentil-sized; fallen off) were recorded at day 8 of the observation period.
