PRIMARY SKIN IRRITATION AND SENSITIZATION TESTS ON GUINEA PIGS
Proced u re; The test for primary irrlta^on was conducted by applying, and lightly rubbing In, I of a 50^ and a 5% solution (vol/vol) of the test material In distilled water on the shaved Intact albino guinea pIgs.S To test for the sensl+lza+lon potential, a series of four sacral Intraderma one each week over a three-week period, which consisted of O.I ml of a \% solution (vol/vol) of t Following a two-week rest period, the test animals were challenged for sensltlzatlon by applying, I drop (=0.05 ml) each of a 50? and a 5% solution (vol/vol) of test material In distilled water o shoulder skin. A group of 9 previously unexposed guinea p'Igs received similar applications at th

shaved Inract skin of male albino guinea pigs. The +est for sensi+lza+lon Indicated that 1/10 anim mild to very mild reactions observed !n several others. A similar difference 'n response of test ov seen when rechallenged. This material Is a weak sensl+lzer; therefore, skin cent-act should be avoid washing if contact should occur.
