Details on study design:
RANGE FINDING TESTS: yes
- 2/sex intradermally injected with 0.1 ml of several dilutions (usually 0.05, 0.1, 0.5 and 1.0%)
- examined over next few days to determine maximum intradermal concentration that could be used without untoward toxicity
- further groups of 2/sex patch tested with 0.3 ml of several concentrations occluded for 48 hours and examined for skin irritation
- concentration selected for topical induction in the main study was that which just caused irritation and for topical challenge was that which was just non-irritant

MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 2, intradermal and epicutaneous
- Exposure period: occluded for 48 hours
- Test groups: 10/sex; intradermal: 2x0.1 ml injections of each of Freund's complete adjuvant (FCA), test material in corn oil, test material in 50:50 FCA:corn oil; epicutaneous: 0.3 ml test material in corn oil on 4 x 4cm filter paper
- Control group: 5/sex; intradermal: 2x0.1 ml injections of each of FCA, corn oil, 50:50 FCA:corn oil; epicutaneous: 0.3 ml corn oil on 4 x 4 cm filter paper
- Site: shoulder region
- Frequency of applications: epicutaneous 1 week after intradurmal
- Duration: epicutaneous on day 0, intradermal from day 7-9
- Concentrations: intradermal 1% w/v; epicutaneous 50% w/v

B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: on day 21

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
In a reliable study, conducted using a protocol similar to OECD guideline 406, Dobanol 45 (a mixture of C14-15 alcohols) was not sensitising to the skin of guinea pigs.
