Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: expert judgment
Conclusions:
No skin irritation was noted following application of 0.01 ml to the belly. Although the dose was a tenth of the dose typically used, no dermal irritation was noted in the dermal LD50 study where rabbits were dosed with 16 ml/kg.
Executive summary:

The skin irritation potential of PGDA was examined. No skin irritation was noted following application of 0.01 ml to the belly. Although the dose was a tenth of the dose typically used, no dermal irritation was noted in the dermal LD50 study where rabbits were dosed with 16 ml/kg.
