Abstract

Preliminary hazard evaluation of the above candidate repellent chemicals were performed by means of laboratory studies using New Zealand White rabbits. Chemicals AI3-37506-a, 37582-a, 37489-a, 37490-a, 37499-a, and 37916 caused moderate to severe primary skin irritations and were not approved for further testing. Chemicals Ai3-37568-a, 37573, 37577-a, 37685, 37686-a, 14145, 30105, 38265-a, 38268-a, 38269-a, 38098-a, 38099-a, and 9768 (9.5.80) caused moderate to severe eye irritation and also were not approved for further testing.
