NOTES

3 male volunteers (23-24 years old) were used in this study. After 4 h the excess of the applied substance was washed off by wiping 10 times with dentists cotton wool balls. During the exposure the subjects were housed in a cabin with their forearm placed into an incubator, both cabin and incubator were controlled for temperature (25oC) and humidity (50 +/- 10%) The absorbed dose was calculated by dividing the dermal absorption value by the fraction of an administered iv dose that was excreted in the urine. Before analysis using GC-MS samples were treated with acid tin order to hydrolyse glucuronide and sulfate conjugates to form the parent compound.
