Topical Hazard Evaluation Program of Candidate Insect Repellent AI3-36470 US Department of Agriculture Proprietary Compound May 1976 - March 1980.

Abstract

A preliminary hazard evaluation of AI3-36470 was performed by means of laboratory animal studies using rats, rabbits, and guinea pigs. The technical grade compound produced a mild sensitizing reaction in one of ten guinea pigs tested. No skin or eye irritation was observed, and it did not present an acute ingestion hazard in rats. The potential for skin sensitization resulted in a recommendation of disapproval for further testing as a candidate insect repellent. (Author)
