Removal of Test Material
After the appropriate period of exposure, the
test materials were removed in the hospital. The test
materials were gently removed from application sites
without rubbing to avoid cross contamination. The
test sites were marked with a permanent marker for
further evaluation.
Evaluation
The application sites were assessed at baseline
before the first application of test material, and
after time periods defined above. The test site reactions
were scored for irritation throughout the test, by the
same assessor, in increasing severity using a grading
scale from grade 0-4 as described in Table 2. Photographs
of reaction were taken using a digital camera
(Olympus C-730 Ultrazoom)
