MAIN STUDY
ANIMAL ASSIGNMENT AND TREATMENT
- Name of test method: Local Lymph Node Assay.
- Criteria used to consider a positive response:
A test item is regarded as sensitizer in the LLNA if exposure to at least one concentration of the test item results in an incorporation of 3H-thymidine at least 3-fold or greater than that recorded in control mice as indicated by the stimulation index (SI ≥ 3.0). However, the biological relevance of the obtained stimulation indices is considered in conjunction with the other assessed end points (i.e. lymph node cell counts, lymph node weights, ear weights). Hereby, the thresholds used for assessment of cell counts and ear weights are represented by stimulation indices (SI) of 1.5 and 1.25, respectively.
TREATMENT PREPARATION AND ADMINISTRATION: 25 µL test substance or test substance preparations were applied to the dorsal surfaces of both ears. - Positive control substance(s):
- hexyl cinnamic aldehyde (CAS No 101-86-0)
- Statistics:
- WILCOXON - Test: 3H-thymidine incorporation, cell count, lymph node weight and ear weight
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- Periodic positive controls, most current values from Jan 2018:
Alpha-Hexylcinnamaldehyde (techn. 85%) tested in concentrations of 1%, 5%, 15% in the vehicle MEK yielded Stimulation Indeces 3H-thymidine incorporation of 1.59, 3.17, 7.48 and Stimulation Indeces Cell counts of 1.27, 1.66 and 2.83, respectively.
The EC 3.0 and EC 1.5 values were 4.6 and 3.3, respectively.
In vivo (LLNA)
Results
- Parameter:
- EC3
- Value:
- > 100
- Remarks on result:
- other: no increase above the cutoff Stimulation Index of 3 up to the highest tested concentration of 100%
- Cellular proliferation data / Observations:
- CELLULAR PROLIFERATION DATA: Statistically significant and concentration-dependent increase of 3H-thymidine incorporation into the cells from the auricular lymph nodes, of the auricular lymph node cell counts and of the lymph node weights. The applied test-substance concentrations did not cause any increase in ear weights demonstrating the absence of relevant ear skin irritation.
DETAILS ON STIMULATION INDEX CALCULATION: The mean stimulation indices (expressed as multiples of the vehicle control or of the untreated control) for 3H-thymidine incorporation, cell count, lymph node weight and ear weight are summarized in Table 1.
EC3 CALCULATION: The applied test-substance concentrations did not induce a biologically relevant (no increase above the cutoff Stimulation Index of 3). Therefore, the EC3 is > 100%.
CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS: No signs of systemic toxicity were noticed in all animals during general observation.
BODY WEIGHTS: No influence on the body weights was observed during the study.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The test material does not exhibit a skin sensitizing potential in the Murine Local Lymph Node Assay.
- Executive summary:
The skin sensitizing potential of the test material was assessed using the radioactive Murine Local Lymph Node Assay. The assay simulates the induction phase for skin sensitization in mice. It determines the response of cells in the auricular lymph nodes to repeated application of the test substance to the dorsal skin of the ears.
Groups of 5 female CBA/CaOlaHsd mice each were treated with 25% and 50% (w/w) preparations of the test substance in MEK, with the undiluted test substance, or with the vehicle alone or not treated at all.
The study used 3 test groups and 2 control groups. Each test animal was treated with 25 µL per ear of the appropriate test-substance preparation or of the undiluted test substance applied to the dorsal surfaces of both ears on three consecutive days. The control group was treated with 25 µL per ear of the vehicle alone.
Three days after the last application, 20 µCi3H-thymidine in 250 µL sterile saline were injected into the tail vein of the mice. About 5 hours after the3H-thymidine injection, the mice were sacrificed and the auricular lymph nodes were removed. Lymph node response was evaluated measuring3H-thymidine incorporation (indicator of cell proliferation). Cell counts and weights of each animal’s pooled lymph nodes were also determined. In addition, a 0.8cm diameter sample was punched out of the apical part of each ear, and for each animal, the weight of the pooled punches was determined to obtain an indication of possible skin irritation.
No signs of systemic toxicity were noticed in all animals during general observation.
The applied test-substance concentrations did not induce a biologically relevant (no increase above the cutoff Stimulation Index of 3), but statistically significant and concentration-dependent increase of 3H-thymidine incorporation into the cells from the auricular lymph nodes.
When applied undiluted the test substance induced a concentration-dependent, statistically significant response just above the cut-off for biological relevance (increase to 1.5-fold or above of control value = stimulation index (SI)≥1.5) in the auricular lymph node cell counts, as well as a biologically relevant, concentration dependent and statistically significant increase in lymph node weights.
The applied test-substance concentration did not cause any increase in ear weights demonstrating the absence of relevant ear skin irritation.
Thus, it is concluded that the test material does not exhibit a skin sensitizing potential in the Murine Local Lymph Node Assay underthe test conditions chosen.
