NOTES

Hairless Dogs were used. Radioactivity was measured until the amount found in the urine was equal to background levels. The % Absorption was derived by adding the % of the topically applied radioactive dose found in urine and faeces. Dogs were not sacrificed. The radioactive dose was 5 mcrCi
