5. TOXICITY Id <strong>497</strong>-<strong>19</strong>-8<br />
Date <strong>19</strong>.02.2003<br />
GLP: No<br />
METHOD OF CALCULATION: A primary irritation index was calculated by<br />
averageing the scores for abraded and intact skin with respect to erythema<br />
and oedema at 4, 24 and 48 h.<br />
STATISTICAL METHODS: Not reported.<br />
ANALYTICAL METHODS: Not reported.<br />
Result : AVERAGE SCORE<br />
- Erythema: 0<br />
- Edema: 0<br />
For abraded skin a mean score of >2.0 with 2 out of 6 humans having tissue<br />
destruction greater than grade 4.0.<br />
