Brief Summary

The Patch test is performed to assess the dermal safety of test product involved in the study. It is a technique used to determine the potential of specific substances to cause irritancy of the skin.

In general, patches are applied for a contact period of 24 hours, and skin reaction is assessed and the marked site is scored post 24 hours after the removal of the patches. Reactions such as erythema, dryness and wrinkling are scored on a 0– 4-point scale and oedema is scored on another 0 – 4-point scale (Draize scale).

52 Healthy Men and Women will be included in this study and the irritancy of the test product will be assessed.

Result: The study was completed with 52 complete cases and no adverse events.
