Topical Hazard Evaluation Program of Candidate Insect Repellent AI3-36423, US Department of Agriculture Proprietary Compound.

Abstract

A preliminary hazard evaluation of AI3-36423 was performed by means of laboratory animal studies using rats, rabbits, and guinea pigs. The technical grade compound caused mild primary skin irritation and mild corneal and conjunctival irritation in rabbits, but no photoirritation. It did not sensitize guinea pigs or prove to be an acute ingestion hazard. Ethanol solutions of AI3-36423 also caused mild skin irritation. (Author)
