INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the skin imitation of f l H ^ w h e n applied to fche clipped, Intact skin 4Ne . f ' "J1te rabbltsTThls study was conducted according to the applicable EPA Good Laboratory Practice Regulations. Areas of noncompliance are documented In the study records. No deviations existed that significantly affected the validity of the study.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A. Animal Husbandry
Your,, adult male and fajale New Zealand
,,
from Hare Marl and, Hewitt, New Jersey. The rabbits were boused singly in
suspended, stainless steel, wire-mesh cages. Each rabbit
a
uniaue identification number which was recorded on a card affixed to the
cage. Purina Certified High Fiber Rabbit Chow #5325 and waver were
available ad libitum except as noted under Protocol.. Rabbits were
quarantined, weighed and observed for general health for approximateiy 2
weeks. Animal rooms were maintained on a 1 1mer-contro11ed, hour
light/12-hour dark cycle. Environmental conditions o i v h e rooms were
targeted f o r a temperature of 20C + 2C and relative humidity of 50% +
10%; Any excursions outside these ranges were of small ma9nJJ"d* * 2 j /or brief duration and did not adversely affect the validity of the study.
B. Protocol
On the day prior to study initiation, the hair of one female and 5 male New Zealand White rabbits was closely clipped to expose the skin from the scapular to the lumbar region of the back. The rbbi,.s w c,g..cd from 2773 to 3145 grams oh the day of treatment.
Each rabbit was placed into a stock which had been fitted with a
piece of rubber sheeting, approximately 8" x 18".
t i 1d"0t
in the stocks throughout the exposure period and d u n n ^ h a t time ^ d ^ot
have access to food or water. A 0.5 mL aliquot of I ^ H V w a s applied
directly on the test site beneath a 2-mch gauze square that place with tape. The rubber sheeting was then wrapped around the animal
and secured with clips to retard evaporation and to keep the test material in contact with the skin without undue pressure.

Approximately 24 hours after application of the test material, the rubber sheeting was loosened, and the skin at the corners of the gauze squares was marked wit a waterproof pen; wrappings and gauze squares were then removed. Thlie test sites were gently washed with warm water to remove excess test material. The skin was gently patted dry and the animals were returned to their cages.
Approximately 24 ahd 48 hours after application of the test material, the test sites were evaluated for erythema, edema and other evidence of dermal effects and were scored according to the Dralze scale (Table I). The adjacent areas of the untreated skin were used for comparison.
C. Records Retention
All raw data and the final report will be stored In the archives of Haskell Laboratory for Toxicology and Industrial Medicine, E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, Inc., Newark, Delaware or 1n the Du Pont Records Management Center, Wilmington, Delaware.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS
