RANGE FINDING TESTS:
Primary irritation:
The test material was applied to six animals to determine the concentration appropriate for use during the primary challenge. The materials was tested as 25%, 50% and 100% w/v in distilled water. A concentration of 100% w/v in distilled water was determined for use in induction and primary challenge.


MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 3 (once per week over 3 week period).
- Exposure period: 6 Hours.
- Test groups: 20 test animals (10 male, 10 female) at 100%
- Control group: 10 control animals (5 male, 5 female) distilled water only.
- Site: Upper, left quadrant of back (clipped)
- Frequency of applications: Once per week, over 3 week period.
- Duration: 6 hours per exposure
- Concentrations: 0.5g of test material as 100% w/v in distilled water.


B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: 1 day
- Exposure period: 6 hours
- Test groups: 20 test animals (10 male, 10 female) at 100%
- Control group: 10 control animals (5 male, 5 female) distilled water only.
- Site: Lower, right flank (clipped)
- Concentrations: 0.5g of test material as 100% w/v in distilled water.
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 24 and 48 hours after application.
Challenge controls:
A challenge patch moistened with 0.5g of the test material as 100% w/v was applied to each control animal, occluded for 6 hours and removed.
Positive control substance(s):
not specified
