| Abstract |
This study was designed to assess the skin sensitisation potential of Molybdenum disulphide using the guinea-pig. The test substance may come into contact with skin during handling or use. The albino guinea-pig was chosen as the test species as it had been shown to be a suitable model for skin sensitisation studies and is the animal recommended in the test guideline. The dose levels for the study were chosen on the basis of a preliminary study in compliance with the guideline. The protocol was approved by Huntingdon Life Sciences Management on 7 November 1996. |
