- PRE-SCREEN TEST:
In the pre-screening test, three concentrations (10, 25 and 50% solution in DMF) were selected, and 25 μl each dose formulation were applied on the dorsal skin of both auricles of each animal, 2 mice for each concentration, once a day for 3 consecutive days. The general conditions including an observation of the application site were performed once each day (from 1 to 3 hours after the application to day 6). As a result, no animals showed any abnormalities. The body weights and ear thickness were measured before the initial application and on Day 6. None of the animals showed any changes deviating from the criteria of body weights (less than 5% weight change) and ear thickness (less than 25% increase in ear thickness). No rationale given for dose selection in the pre-screen test.
From the results mentioned above, 50% was selected as the high concentration for the main study, because it was expected not to induce any toxic signs in the general condition, 25% or more increase in the ear thickness, dermal erythema with score of 3 or more on the auricles, or more than 5% of body weight loss, and two lower concentrations of 25 and 10%.
MAIN STUDY
ANIMAL ASSIGNMENT AND TREATMENT
- Name of test method: 3H-methylthymidine incorporation determined by ß-scintillation
- Criteria used to consider a positive response: A substance is regarded as a sensitizer in the LLNA, if the Stimulation Index (SI) is 3 or greater.
TREATMENT PREPARATION AND ADMINISTRATION: 25 µl of each dose formulation were applied to the dorsal skin of auricles of each animal once a day (using a MICROMAN (Model M100, Gilson) for 3 days. On day 6 20 μCi [methyl-3H] thymidine (3HTdR) (= 250 μL of 80 μCi/mL 3HTdR solution) was administered intravenously to each mouse via the tail vein with disposable syringes and 27G needles. 5 h after administration local lymph nodes were collected and minced and then the pooled lymph node cells (LNC) were treated with 5% TCA overnight (approximately 18 hours) before determination of the ammount of 3HTdR incorporation on day 7. - Positive control substance(s):
- hexyl cinnamic aldehyde (CAS No 101-86-0)
- Statistics:
- No statistical analysis were performed.
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- The positive control substance (25% α-Hexylcinnamaldehyde (Lot # LAP0946, Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd, Japan) in DMF) induced a positive reaction, determined by a DPM/animal of 5317.9 compared to 1094.5 DPM/animal in the control group, leading to a SI of 4.9. No abnormal clinical signs, erythema on the auricles or body weight changes on day 6 were observed. The weights of lymph nodes were however much larger than those in the vehicle control group (9.9 +/- 0.8 vs 5.2 +/- 0.8 in HCA treated animals and control group, respectively) and the ear thickness of animals treated with the test substance was larger than that in the vehicle control group (day 3: 0.15 +/- 0.009 mm vs 0.13 +/- 0.005; day 6: 0.18 +/- 0.009 mm vs 0.13 +/- 0.005, respectively).

Lymph node weight was not altered compared to that of the vehicle control group (5.2 +/- 0.8, 5.4 +/- 0.4 , 6.4 ± 0.8, 6.1 ± 0.7 for control, 10, 25 and 50% test substance, respectively). Topical application of the test substance led to an increase in the mean DPM values of pooled lymph nodes. The following values were obtained: 1094.5, 1831.8, 3432.9 and 3402.8 DPM/animal in control, 10, 25 and 50% test groups.
DETAILS ON STIMULATION INDEX CALCULATION
The SI was derived by dividing the mean DPM/mouse within each test substance group and positive control group by the mean DPM/mouse for the vehicle control group. The following values were obtained: 1.7, 4.0, 3.1 and 4.9 for 10, 25 and 50% test substance and the positive control substance HCA, respectively.
EC3 CALCULATION
The EC3 value was estimated via quadratic regression. The allergenic potency class of the test substance was assigned depending on the EC3 value using the GHS categorization scheme.
The EC3 value of the test substance was calculated to be 16.8% via quadratic regression.
CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS and BODY WEIGHTS
No abnormal clinical signs, erythema on the auricles or body weight increases or decreases on day 6 were observed. Neither individual ear thickness was altered compared to that of the vehicle control croup.

The classification of skin sensitization was conformed to the "Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS)" (5th revised edition, United Nations, 2013).
