Skin Irritation Test with H-21095 in Rabbits
SUMMARY
H-21095 vas evaluated for acute -sVin irritation potential in 6 Bale Nev
Zealand tfhite rabbits. A '-.5 iaL aiisuot of the test substance vas applied to the shaved, intact skin of each labbi't and covered vith a seal-occluslve g dressing. The rabbits were exposed for 4 hours after which the test substance vas removed. Approximately 1, 2k, 48, and 72 hours after roaoval of the test substance, the 'est sites vere evaluated for erythema, edema, and other evidence of dermal effects and vere scnred according to the Draize Scale. The adjacent areas '? untreated skin vere used for comparison.
The test substance adhe:ed to th; skin of the labbits; however, the test
sites could still be evalua-ed. Slight to moderate eryhena and no ede--
vere observed in the rabbit? by 1 hour after removal of the test substance. By 24 hours, slight or mild erythema and no to mild edema were observed. By 48 and 72 hours, the rabbi"; exhibited no or slight erythema and no edem. No clinical signs of toxic :-: vere observed during this study-
Undei the conditions 'it .is st'irly. H-21095 vas a moderate skin irritant.

B. Protocol
On the day prior to creafent, the hair of 6 ale New Zealand Dhif
rabbits was closely shaved to expose the Stkia froa the scapular to die luabar region of the back. The body weights of the rabbit* ranged froa 1930 to 2174 grams on the day of treatment.
Each rabbit was placed into a stock which had been fitted with a
piece of rubber sheeting, approximately 8" x 18". The rabbits remained
in the stocks throughout the exposure period and during that ti-- did not
have access to food or water. A 0.5 iL aliquot of H-21095 vas applied directly on the test site beneath a 2-inch gauze square that vas held in place vlth 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. In the absence of visible evidence to the contrary, the test substance was assumed to be stable under the conditions of administration. Up to 3 other test substances were tested concurrently on separate, localised test sites on the backs of these rabbits.
Approximately 4 hours after application of the test substance, the rubber sheeting was loosened, and the skin at the corners of the gauze
squares was marked with a waterproof pen; wrappings and gauze squares were then removed. The test sites were gently washed with warm water to remove excess test substance. The skin was gently patted dry, and the aninials were returned to their cages.
Approximately 1, 24, 48, and 72 hours after removal of the test
substance, the test sites were evaluated for erythema, edeaa, and other "Uance of dermal effects and were scored according to the Draixa scale
(Table I). The adjacent areas of the untreated skin were used for
comparison. In addition, the rabbits were observed for clinical signs of toxic!ty at each observation.
C. Records Retention
All raw data and the final report will be stored in the archives of
Haskell Laboratory for Toxicology and Industrial Medicine, E. I. du Font
de Nenorrs and Company, Newark, Delaware or in the DuPont Records Management Center, tfilmingtcn, Delaware.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS
The test substance adhered to the skin of the rabbits; however, the test
sites could still be evaluated. H-21095 produced slight erythema in 4
rabbits, mild erytheaa in I rabbit, and moderate erythema in 1 rabbit by 1 hour after reaoval of the test substance. Ko edeaa was observed at 1 hur

By 24 hours, 3 rabbits exhibited slight erytheaa but no edea, and 3
exhibited ild eryth--a and no to mild edeaa. By 48 hours, 2 rabbits exhibited oo deraal irritation, and 4 exhibited alight erytluwa but BO d----. By 72 hours, 3 rabbits exhibited no denial irritation, and 3 exhibited light
erytheaa but no edena. No clinical signs of toxicity were observed during
this study. Individual skin irritation scores are presented in Table II. A

Under the conditions of this study, H-21095 was a moderate skin irritant.
If these test scores are to be used for EEC/OECD classification,
according to the guide to the labeling of dangerous substance's .published in
the Official Journal of European Communities (EEC Directive 9-3/21, Annex VI), H-21095 probably could be classified as a "HON-IRRITANT" until further data is available.
