This study was conducted according to the applicable PA Good Laboratory Practice Regulations. Areas of noncompliance are documented in the study records. Ho deviations existed that affected the validity of the study. MATERIALS AND METHODS A. Animal Husbandry Young adult male and female New Zealand White rabbits were received from Bare Harland, Hewitt, New Jersey. The rabbits were housed singly in suspended, stainless steel, wire-mesh cages. Each rabbit was assigned a unique identification number which was recorded on a card affixed to the cage. Purina Certified High Fiber Rabbit Chow #5325 and water were available ad libitum except as noted under Protocol. Rabbits were 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 2C and relative humidity of 50% 10*. Any excursions outside these ranges were of small magnitude and/or brief duration and did not adversely affect the validity of the study. B. Protoeoi 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 the 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 was placed into a stock which had been tiffed vith * piece of rubber sheeting, approximately 8" x 18". Ihe rabbits remained in the stocks throughout the exposure period and durin^fla| time did not have access to food or water. A 0.5 mL aliquot o f ^ p R B m s 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. Du Pont HLR 802-91 Approximately 24 hours after application of the test substance, the rubber sheeting was loosened, and the skin at the corners of the gauze squares as narked with a waterproof pen; wrappings and gauze squares were then removed. The test sites were gently washed with warn 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 (Table I). The adjacent areas of the untreated skin were used for comparison. C. Records Retention All raw data and the fil! report will be stored in the archives of B a g o l i Laboratory for Toxicology and Industrial Medicine, E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, Newark, Delaware or in the Du Pont Records Management Center, Wilmington, Delaware. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS A l t h o u g h H M H v d h e r e d 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. iSdividuaT skin lrrttat'ion scores are presented in Table II. A summary of skin responses is presented in the following table.
