Topical Hazard Evaluation Program of Candidate Insect Repellent AI3-36029 S-Undecalactone.

Abstract

A hazard evaluation of AI3-36029 was conducted using New Zealand White rabbits for skin and eye studies; Hartley guinea pigs for a sensitization study; and Sprague-Dawley, Wistar-derived rats for acute oral toxicity. The candidate insect repellent caused no skin or eye irritation, no photochemical irritation, no sensitization reaction and did not demonstrate an acute ingestion hazard. It is recommended that AI3-36029 be approved for further testing as a candidate topical insect repellent. (Author)
