Constituent 1
Method
- Type of population:
- general
- Subjects:
- Twenty adult volunteers of both sexes per group.
- Controls:
- The 20 control subjects were patch tested with Triclosan 5%, 2% and 1% in petrolatum.
Tests were performed on the upper part of the back and were removed after 48 hours.
Two readings were made after 48 and 96 hours. An additional reading was made 7 days later. - Details on study design:
- PATCH TEST:
Preparation of the application site: 5% sodium lauryl sulphate under occlusion for 24 h.
Induction: Application of 20% triclosan in petrolatum at the same site on days 1,3, 5, 7, and 9.
After the last induction: Resting period of 14 days.
Challenge: 14 days after the last induction, using 1%,2%, or 5% triclosan; a control patch test with petrolatum also was performed.
Results and discussion
- Results of examinations:
- INDUCTION
During induction, 17 of the 20 tested subjects showed signs of skin irritation consisting of erythema and slight oedema, which were moderately painful.
CHALLENGE
None of the 20 test volunteers and none of the control volunteers showed positive patch test reactions up to 7 days post-challenge.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
