Topical Hazard Evaluation Program of Candidate Insect Repellent AI3-36551 Cyclorome.

Abstract

A hazard evaluation of AI3-36551 was conducted using New Zealand White rabbits for skin and eye studies; Hartley guinea pigs for a skin 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. Based on these findings, it is recommended that AI3-36551 be approved for further testing as a candidate topical insect repellent. (Author)
