summary The re@ults of the primary skin irritation test conducted from
January 17, 1984 to January 20, 1984 at Riker Laboratories, Inc., St. Paul, Minnesota indicate that T-3494 is slightly irritating (0.7/8.0) to the skin of female albino rabbits. Slight erythema with no accompanying edema was noted at the one hour evaluation following a one day occluded contact period. No irritation was noted at the day two evaluation.
introduction The objective of this study was to determine the primary skin
irritation potential of T-3494 to the skin of female albino rabbits. This study is not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration's Good Laboratory Practice Regulation of 1978, although the standard operating procedures of this laboratory adhere to the general principles of this regulation. The raw data generated by the Study Director and the final report are stored in the conducting laboratory's archives.

Method and Results
Young albino rabbits of the New Zealand breee were used in the evaluation
of the primary skin irritating properties of the test article. b
procedure was modeled after that of Draize et al.@--.
The test
one day prior to the application of the test article, the hair was clipped
from the back and flanks of each rabbit and two test sites selected lateral to the midline of the back approximately ten centimeters apart. one of the two sites was abraded by making four epidermal incisions, two perpendicular to the
other two, while the other test site remained intact. The test article (0.5 g) was applied to each of the test sites on each
rabbit and immediately covered with two-inch square gauze patches. The patches, which were placed directly over the test sites, were secured with gauze wrap.
c The trunk of each animal was then wrapped with impervious plastic sheeting
which held the patches in position during the one day exposure period. At the end of one day, the plastic wrappings, patches, and all residual d
test article were removecl@--.one hour and 48 hours after removal of the test article, the intact and abraded test sites were examined and scored separately
for erythema and edema on a graded scale of 0 - 4. The average irritation produced was evaluated by adding the mean scores for
erythema and edema of the intact test sites one and 48 hours post removal of the test article. Similarly, the mean scores for erythema and edema of the abraded
test sites were added.

These two values were totaled and divided by four to obtain the mean primary irritation index. The scoring criteria for erythema and edema are shown below.

The following grading system was used to arrive at a descriptive primary
skin irritation rating:

The rating for a test article may be increased if the reactions caused
are beyond simple erythema and edema, e.ge necrosis, escharosis, hemorrhage. The results are presented in Table 1. The protocol, principal personnel
involved in the study, composition characteristics and Quality Assurance statement are contained in Appendices I - IV.
