Summary The results 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-3493 is non-irritating (0.0/8.0) to the skin of female albino rabbits. Neither erythema nor edema were noted at any time during the study.
Introduction The objective of this study was to determine the primary skin
irritation potential of T-3493 to the skin of female albino rabbits. This study is not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration's Good Laboratory Practice Regulation of 1.978,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 bree(P-were used in the evaluation
of the primary skin irritatingproperties of the test article. The test procedure was modeled after that of Draize et al=b.
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 removed=. 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 irritationrating:
Mean Primary Irritation Score (Range of values)
0 0.1 - 0.5 0.6 - 1.5 1.6 - 3.0 3.1 - 5.0 5.1 - 6.5 6.6 - 8.0
Descriptive Rating
Non-irritating Minimally Irritating Slightly Irritating Mildly Irritating Moderately Irritating Severely Irritating Extremely Irritating
The rating for a test article may be increased if the reactions caused
are beyond simple erythema and edema, e.g. necrosis, escharosis, hemorrhage.

To determine the primary irritatipoontentialof the testarticlteo the skin of

were selected as the testsystem due to theirhistoricaulse, sensitivittyo irritantse,ase of handling
and general avoiability.
The animals willbe housed instandard wire-mesh cages intemperature and humidity controlledrooms
with foodg and water offeredad libitum.Each animal willbe assigned a numbered ear tag, which will
correspond to a card affixedto the outsideof the cage. Priorto the applicationof the testarticlet,he hair
willbe clippedfrom the back and flanksof each animal and to the midlineofthe back approximatelyten centimetersapart.
