This study was conducted to investigate the skin irritation by transdermal administration of the three dyes. These dyes were originated from onion by using extraction method. By the order of extraction from onion, A-dye was obtained from onion by using water at 90-100$\circ$C. B-dye was extracted from A-dye with ethylacetate. After ethylacetate extraction from A-dye, the lower layer named as C-dye. Twenty-four New Zealand white rabbits were divided into three groups. The each groups was consisted of two subgroups according to high dose (extracted dyes) and low dose (the 100-fold dilutions of A-, Band C-dye). In primary skin irritation test of male New Zealand White rabbits, body temperature and weights were not significantly changed and blood cells were positioned in normal blood cell ranges of health rabbits. Primary irritation index was "0" in the test and control sites of all animals used in this study. By the results obtained in the present test, all dyes were evaluated as a non-irritant on the basis of the criteria of Draize.of Draize.

In this study, we compared skin response between Hartley guinea pig and New Zealand white rabbit. New Zealand white rabbit was treated by a glycolic acid (0, 8, 24, 40, 56 mg/$cm^2$) and UVB (0, 0.4, 3.0 J/$cm^2$) for 14 days. Skin irritation by glycolic acid and UVB were increased in dose and time-dependent manners, and the combination treatment of UVB increased glycolic acid-induced skin irritation. Comparison the skin irritation index between guinea pig and rabbit showed that guinea pig was much more sensitive to glycolic acid and UVB. This study indicated that selection of reliable species of animal could be considered in chemical-induced skin irritation study.

This study was conducted to investigate the skin irritation toxicity of Syndella gel, a combination topical drug containing a deproteinised dialysate of calf's blood and micronomicin sulfate in the ratio of 20 to 1, in New Zealand White rabbits. In the primary skn irritation test with male New Zealand White rabbits, there was no treatment-related effect on clinical sign, nd body weight was not significantly changed. The Primary Irritation index (PII) was 0.33, indicating that Syndella gel was a mildly irritating formulation.

Intraoral soft tissue can easily be injured by weak mechanical irritation. Each symptom by irritation is various, but most of patients show chronic inflammatory lesion. The fibroma is the most frequent disease found in intraoral area followed by pyogenic granuloma, epulis fissuratum, palatal papillomatosis, and epulis granulomatosum. The inflammatory hyperplasia by mechnical irritation is easily different from other disease, but this shows similar to several benign and malignant tumors required differential diagnosis. By microscopic feature, the lesions is divided by granulatory stage, mixed stage, and fibrotic tissue stage. The inflammatory hyperplasia is differently treated by each clinical features.: only removal of cause or, and excisional biopsy is/are required. This is the cases report of reactive hyperplasia of intraoral soft tissue by mechanical irritation that suggests various treatments of each cases.

LBD-005, a newly developed recombinant granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor, was tested for primary skin irritation in male New Zealand White rabbits. In the primary skin irritation test, LBD-005 was applied to intact and abraded skins for 24 hours. Primary irritation index was "0" in test and control sites of all animals' thus LBD-005 was evaluated as a non-irritatant on the basis of the criteria of Draize et al. (1994).l. (1994).

The local irritation studies of DA-3285, recombinant human erytropoietin(rHu-EPO), were carried out in rabbits after the following treatment; single application into the conjunctival sac of the eye, single subcutaneous injection, 7-day repeated subcutaneous injection and 8-day repeated infusion into the ear vein. Also, the local irritancy of DA-3285 leaked around vein was studied in mice by single perivascular injection. The results obtained were as follows. In the result of ocular irritation test, DA-3285 could be considered as a non-irritating material. In single and 7-day repeated subcutaneous irritation test, the irritancy of DA-3285 was not so much different from that of saline. The vascular irritancy of DA3285 by 8-day repeated infusion was negligible and similar to that of saline. And the irritancy of DA3285 by perivascular injection was comparable to that of saline. These results indicate that DA-3285 has no irritating activity when injected through subcutaneous or intravenous route for clinical practice as 3.5% solution.

In the present study, we evaluated the free radical scavenging and xanthine oxidase inhibitory activities exhibited by extracts obtained from the dried stems (and leaves) of Lespedeza bicolor We also assessed its potential irritation activities with regard to cosmetic use. When the DPPH radical scavenging activities of L. bicolor were assessed at six different concentrations (0, 50, 100, 250, 500 and 1000 ${\mu}g/ml$), the concentration of L. bicolor required to inhibit DPPH radical formation by $50\%$ was found to be $164.90{\mu}g/ml$. The effects of L. bicolor on the inhibition of xanthine oxidase were determined at seven different concentrations. The $50\%$ effective concentration was found to be $282.75{\mu}g/ml$. In the skin irritation test, all animals survived for the duration of the study, and all exhibited normal gains in body weight. The control sites exhibited no response to the control procedures. No edema, erythema, or eschar formation was observed in any of the tested rabbits. In the ocular irritation study, all of the rabbit eyes remained normal. In summary, L. bicolor extracts were considered to be non-irritating to the skin and eye.

Deep sea water (DSW) contains many inorganic materials and minerals, which are extracted for use in diverse fields. However, before application, safety tests should be performed. In the present study, two DSW-extracted minerals were analyzed: calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg). Eye and skin irritation tests of DSW-extracted Ca and Mg were performed according to the guidelines of the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety of Korea. These two types of mineral extracts caused no symptoms of eye and skin irritation when compared to the control. These results suggest that DSW-extracted minerals caused no irritation in the eyes and on the skin, and could be safely applied to these areas.

Irritation fibroma is a reactive hyperplastic lesion caused by chronic stimuli with low intensity in the oral cavity. Irritation fibroma is common in middle-aged females but it may also occur at any age and sex. Clinical characteristics of irritation fibroma are similar to other reactive lesions or benign tumors, therefore, histological examination is essential to make an accurate diagnosis. This case report presents two cases of irritation fibroma occurred on the gingiva in young males. Two male patients in their 20s and 30s of age visited the clinic for the evaluation and treatment of painless gingival overgrowth in the anterior region. Clinically, the lesions were well-defined and firm, with similar color and texture to the adjacent normal gingiva. Excisional biopsy under local anesthesia was conducted with a scalpel, and the lesions were completely removed. Histopathologically, connective tissue consisting of dense collagen bundles, proliferation of fibroblasts and minor infiltrated inflammatory cells were observed. Based on the clinical and histopathological findings, the diagnosis of irritation fibroma was confirmed in both cases.
