- Details on study design:
- RANGE FINDING TESTS:
A range finding study was performed with two animals/concentration with following concentrations: 26.5 % and 10 % (26.5 % is the maximal achievable concentration that avoids overt systemic toxicity and excessive local irritation). Animals were treated with 25 µL test substance on the dorsum of each ear on 3 consecutive days. Ear thickness and body weight were measured on Day 1 before the first administration and on Day 4 about 24 hours after the last administration. In animals of both groups test substance remnants at the application sites were observed on Days 3 and 4, which is of no relevance for the results of a skin sensitisation study. None of the animals showed overt systemic toxicity, excessive local skin irritation at the application sites or an important increase in ear thickness in the range finding study. Therefore 26.5 % was chosen as highest test substance concentration and ear thickness measurement was not performed in the main study. As mid concentration 10 % was chosen, since 26.5 % is very near at the proposed 25%.
MAIN STUDY
ANIMAL ASSIGNMENT AND TREATMENT
- Name of test method: Local Lymph Node Assay
- Criteria used to consider a positive response: According to the guidelines the decission process with regard to a positive response includes a stimulation index of equal to or greater than 3, together with consideration of dose-response.
TREATMENT PREPARATION AND ADMINISTRATION: The test substance solutions were prepared freshly on each day of administration by the solution of test substance in DMSO (w/w) using an ultrasonic bath for the highest concentration. No analysis of test substance preparations were made. The test substance was solved in DMSO and was administered to 3 groups of 5 female. Administration was performed epicoutaneously to the dorsal surface of both ears, once a day, on 3 consecutive days. The volume applied was 25 µL. 5 days after the first topical administration, each animal received 20 µCi 3HTdR by slow intravenous administration. Approximately 5 hours after 3HTdR injection all animals were sacrificed and the draining auricular lymph nodes were rapidly excised. The lymph nodes of each group were pooled in PBS. A single cell suspension of lymph node cells was prepared by gentle mechanical disaggregation of the pooled lymph nodes through a 70 µm cell strainer. 3HTdR incorporation was determined with a β-scintillation counter. - Positive control substance(s):
- hexyl cinnamic aldehyde (CAS No 101-86-0)
- Positive control results:
- Application of 25 % HCA in AOO resulted in an SI of 3.5. This result proves the sensitivity of the strain of animals used anmd the reliability of the experimental technique.
- Parameter:
- SI
- Remarks on result:
- other: Group A (low dose): 4.1 Group B (mid dose): 6.6 Group C (high dose): 7.9 Group P (positive control): 3.5 Group K (negative control): 1

- Interpretation of results:
- sensitising
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- The Stimulation Index of the tested test substance concentrations were 4.1 (low dose), 6.6 (mid dose) and 7.9 (high dose) (SIs > 3). According to the OECD Guideline 429 and the EU Method B.42, the test substance is regarded as a sensitizer in the LLNA.
- Executive summary:
The Local Lymph Node Assay was performed according to OECD Guideline 429 and the B.42 EU Method, to evaluate a possible sensitizing potential of the test substance. The test substance was solved in DMSO and was administered to three groups of 5 female CBA/Ca mice. Administration was performed epicutaneously to the dorsal surface of both ears, once a day on 3 consecutive days. The volume administered was 25 µL/ear. The concentrations used were: 5, 10 and 26.5 % w/w (solution of the test substance in DMSO). Two groups with 5 animals each served as positive and negative controls. Both control substances were administered under identical conditions as the test substances. The SIs of the tested test substance concentrations were 4.1 (low dose), 6.6 (mid dose) and 7.9 (high dose) (SIs > 3). According to the OECD Guideline 429 and the EU Method B.42, the test substance is regarded as a sensitizer in the LLNA.
Reference
All animals survived till the end of the study.
No abnormal behaviour or clinical signs were detected during the experiment in the animals.
No local irritations were observed at the application sites of all animals of all test substance groups and both control groups throughout the whole study.
Body masses and body mass gains of all animals were in the range to be expected from animals of the same strain, sex and age. Body weight loss was noted in 2/5 animals in the high dose treatment group.
