SCORING SYSTEM: FDA Federal Register 38, No 187

Erythema and eschar formation (EEF) :
No erythema 0
Very slight erythema (barely perceptible) 1
Well defined erythema 2
Moderate to severe erythema 3
Severe erythema (beet redness) to slight eschar formation (injuries in depth) 4

Edema formation (EF):
No edema 0
Very slight edema (barely perceptible) 1
Slight edema (edges of area well defined by definite raising) 2
Moderate edema (raised approximately 1 mm) 3
Severe edema (raised more than 1 mm and extending beyond area of exp.) 4

Mean value of 6 animals

Primary Irritation Index (PII) = EEF24h-abraded + EEF72h-abraded + EEF24h-shaved + EEF72h-shaved + EF24h-abraded + EF72h-abraded + EF24h-shaved + EF72h-shaved / 4

EVALUATION:

0.0 - 0.5 non-irritant
0.6 - 3.0 slightly irritant
3.1 - 5.0 moderately irritant
5.1 - 8.0 severely irritant
