NOTES

Balb C mouse skin. 6 different animals were used and 6 cells were used for each animal. The % Penetrated was derived from the % found in the receptor fluid + the % found in the solubilized skin. Results were given as +/- SEM. I have converted these to SD for this database. No dichlorobenzene was detecable in the tape strips of the stratum corneum
