Topical Hazard Evaluation Program of Candidate Insect Repellents AI3-37173-b and AI3-37175-b, US Department of Agriculture Proprietary Chemicals, March 1981.

Abstract

A preliminary hazard evaluation of AI3-37173-b and AI3-37175-b was performed by means of a photochemical skin irritation study in rabbits. A 25-percent ethanol solution of AI3-37173-b caused a positive photochemical response, while that of AI3-37175-b did not cause a photochemical skin reaction. It was recommended that AI3-37173 not be approved, while AI3-37175 should be approved for further testing as a candidate insect repellent. (Author)
