Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
Sensitization of guinea pigs was determined by a technique consisting of 8 intracuaneous injections (3 per week on alternate days) of 0.1 mL of the diluted epoxymaterial. A 3-week incubation period was followed by a challenge dose, and examinations for possible sensitisation reactions were made 24 and 48 hours thereafter.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of study:
guinea pig maximisation test

Executive summary:

Epoxidized Soybean Oil (ESBO) was applied in guinea pigs by a technique consisting of 8 intracutaneous injections (3 per week on alternate days) of 0.1 mL of the diluted epoxymaterial. A 3 -week incubation period was followed by a challenge dose, and examinations for possible sensitisation reactions were made 24 and 48 hours thereafter. No animals were sensitised of the 20 animals tested.
