Editing Draize test (section)

===Anti-testing===
According to the American [[National Anti-Vivisection Society]], solutions of products are applied directly into the animals' eyes, which can cause "intense burning, itching and pain". Clips are placed on the rabbits' eyelids to hold them open during the test period, which can last several days, during which time the rabbits are placed in restraining stocks. The chemicals often leave the eyes "ulcerated and bleeding". In the Draize test for skin irritancy, the test substances are applied to skin that is shaved and abraded (several layers of skin are removed with sticky tape), then covered with plastic sheeting.<ref>[http://www.navs.org/site/PageServer?pagename=ain_pt_animal_tests Animals in product testing] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060516043819/http://www.navs.org/site/PageServer?pagename=ain_pt_animal_tests |date=May 16, 2006 }}, NAVS, accessed June 30, 2009.</ref>
