Skin Irritation Test with
Du Font HLR 802-91
SUMMARY
[100Z pure) was evaluated for acute skin irritation potential in smaieann'E"f*emale rabbits. The test substance adhered to the skin of the rabbits throughout the study. No dermal irritation vas observed in any of
the rabbits by 24 or 48 hours after administration of the test substance. At 72 hours, 1 rabbit exhibited slight erythema.
Under the conditions of this test
but only after prolonged exposure (
a slight skin irritant,
taiT'48 hours).

INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this study vas to evaluate the skin irritation potential
of MPD-"110 when applied to the shaved, intact skin of New Zealand Vhite rabbits. This study vas conducted according to the applicable EPA Good Laboratory Practice Regulations. Areas of noncompliance are documented in
the study records. Ho deviations existed that affected the validity of the
study.
MATERIALS ASP METHODS
A. Animal Husbandry
Young adult male and female New Zealand White rabbits were received from Hare Marland, Hevitt, Nev Jersey. The rabbits were housed singly in suspended, stainless steel, wire-mesh cages. Each rabbit vas assigned a unique identification number which vas recorded on a card affixed to the cage. Purina Certified High Fiber Rabbit Chow #5325 and water were
available ad libitua except: as noted under Protocol. Babbits vere quarantinedT weighed, and observed for general health for approximately 2
weeks. Animal rooms were maintained on a timer-controlled, 12-hour light/12-hour dark cycle. Environmental conditions of the rooms were
targeted for a temperature of 20C 2aC and relative humidity of 50X
10X. Any excursions outside these ranges were of small magnitude and/or brief duration and did not adversely affect the validity of the study.
B. Protocol
On the day prior to treatment, the hair of 5 male and 1 female New Zealand White rabbits was closely shaved to expose the skin from thf scapular to the lumbar region of the back. The body weights of the rabbits ranged from 2665 to 3123 grams on the day of treatment.
Each rabbit vas placed into a stock which had been fitted with a
piece of rubber sheeting, thaepperxopxoimsuarteelype8ri"odx a1n8d". duTrhineg rathbabAitstimreemdaiidnednot
in the stocks throughout have access to food or water.
A 0.5 rol> aliquot o^MlBHB^5 applied
directly on the test site beneath a 2-inch gauze square thaT was held in
place with non-irritating tape. The rubber sheeting was then wrapped
around the animal and secured with clips to retard evaporation and to
keep the test substance in contact.with the skin without undue pressure.

Approxinately 24 hours after application of the test substance, the rubber sheeting was loosened, and the skin at the corners of the gauze squares was Barked with a waterproof pen; wrappings and gauze squares vere then removed. The test sites were gently washed vith warm water, Ivory* soap, and acetone to remove excess test substance. The skin was gently patted dry* and the animals were returned to their cages.
Approximately 24, 48, and 72 hours after application of the test substance, the test sites were evaluated for erythema, edema, and other evidence of dermal effects and were scored according to the Draize scale
I). (Table
The adjacent areas of the untreated skin were used for
coBparison.
C. Records Retention
All raw data and the final report will be stored in the archives of
I. Hasfcell Laboratory for Toxicology and Industrial Medicine, E.

Management Center, vilmington, Delaware.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS
Although|--------Adhered to the skin of all rabbits, the test sites
could be evaluated for dermal irritation. No dermal irritation was observed in any of the rabbits at 24 or 48 hours after application of the test substance. Slight erythema was observed in one rabbit 72 hours after
application. Individuarskin irritation scores are presenteff in Table II. A
