Procedure: A range finding test was conducted with the test material to determine a rio to minimally irritating concentra
tion. After this concentration was determined, the test for primary irritation was conducted by applyi'g, and lightly
rubbing in, I drop (-- 0.05 mil of a 100$ and 10$ suspension (vol./vol.l of the test material in acetone cn the shaved intact
shoulder skin of 10 male albino guinea pigs. To test for the sensitization potential, a series of four sacral intradermal
injections was given, one each week over a three-week period, which consisted of 0.1 ml of a 1$ soluticnivol./vol.l of test
material in dimethyl phthalate. Following a two-week rest period, the test animals were challenged for sensitization by
applying, and lightly rubbing in, I drop (-0.05 ml 1 of a 100$ and 10$ suspension (vol./vol.l of test material in acetone
on the shaved intact shoulder skin. A group of 10 previously unexposed guinea pigs received similar applications at tne
time of challenge to provide a direct comparison of the chal lenge reactions -on skin of similar age._________________
