ABSTRACT
Effect of banvel and its active ingredient, dicamba (3,6-dichloro-o-anisic acid) was investigated employing rabbit mucus membrane irritancy test. Inflammatory changes which did not exceed an average score of 2+ were observed in the animals 48 hr after a single intravaginal application of banvel (0.1 ml/rabbit) and dicamba (100 mg/rabbit). Persistent histopathological changes were observed in 1 out of 6 banvel-treated rabbits 15 days post-application. The results suggest that banvel and dicamba are not primary irritants but should nevertheless be employed with caution.
