MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- Three pairs of intradermal injection (Freund´s adjuvant, test substance with vehicle, test substance with Freund´s adjuvant and vehicle) and one week later one percutaneous induction according to OECD 406; the control animals were given the same injections without test substance. Since the percutaneous induction was applied unchanged to the test animals (no solvent used), the control group was left untreated during the percutaneous induction.
- Readings 24 hours after the intradermal injection and 48 hours after the percutaneous application.
- Site of application: shoulder, same area for intradermal injection and percutaneous application
B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- Epicutaneous challenge was carried out 21 days after the intradermal injection according to OECD 406
- Site of application: intact flank
- Readings: 24 and 48 hours after removal of the patch - Challenge controls:
- No application, since the test substance was applied unchanged to the test group animals and thus no solvent was used.
- Positive control substance(s):
- yes
- Remarks:
- A separate study was performed in the laboratory (run during October/November 1993); Test substance was 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene.
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene has a sensitizing effect on the skin of the guinea pig strain used (Pirbright White, Dunkin Hartley) in the Maximization Test.
The 1st challenge (24 hours after removal of the test patch) with the 0.5 % test substance preparation in ethanol conc. caused well-defined erythema in 8 out of 20 test group animals. 4 out of these animals additionally showed scaling and 1 very slight edema. Very slight erythema was observed in 7 out of 20 test group animals. One out of these animals additionally exhibited scaling. The animals of control group 1 did not show any skin
reactions.
After the 2nd challenge (24 hours after removal of the test patch) with the 0.5 % test substance preparation in ethanol conc. 2 out of 20 test group animals showed well-defined erythema. In 17 out of 20 test group animals very slight erythema could be observed. 5 out of 10 animals of control group 1 exhibited very slight erythema.
The animals of control group 2 did not show any skin reaction. Ethanol conc. applied as a vehicle did not cause any skin reactions in all animals after both challenges.

Any other information on results incl. tables
Pretest
In the preliminary test after two 24 -hour percutaneous occlusive applications of the unchanged test substance within 96 hours no skin reaction could be observed (48 hours after the beginning of application).
Main test
After the intradermal induction well-defined erythema and slight edema could be observed at the injection sites of the control group animals and test group animals at which only Freunds adjuvant/0.9 % aqueous NaCl-solution (1:1) was applied. Injection of the test substance preparation in olive oil DAB 10 resp. in Freund's adjuvant/0.9 % aqueous NaCl-solution (1:1) caused well-defined erythema and slight edema in the test group animals. The control group animals injected with olive oil DAB 10 (vehicle) showed well defined erythema.
Since the test substance was applied unchanged and no solvent was used, the percutaneous induction was only carried out in the test group. Incrustation, partially open (caused by the intradermal induction) in addition to well-defined erythema and slight edema were observed.
The challenge (24 and 48 hours after removal of the patch) with the unchanged test substance did not cause any skin reactions neither in the test group animals nor in the control animals.
