Skin sensitisation
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- skin sensitisation: in vivo (non-LLNA)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 1992-09-16 to 1992-10-31
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: see 'Remark'
- Remarks:
- Guideline study (The study was conducted according to the OECD 406 "Skin sensitisation", adopted 12 May 1981. When the study was conducted the OECD 406 of 10.07.1992 was already effective, so the study was compared to that guideline.) Minor deviations with no effect on the study results or on the high reliability of the study: - 0.2 mL of 10 % w/w sodium lauryl sulphate in Vaseline was used in order to create local irritation after intradermal injections instead of 0.5 mL. - another grading scale than the one stated in the guideline was used.

- MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 2 (intradermal injections & topical application)
- Exposure period: topical application: 48 hours
- Test groups: Intradermal injections: Freund's complete adjuvant was diluted with an equal volume of water for irrigation (Ph.Eur.); Ammonium dimolybdate in water for irrigation; Ammonium dimolybdate in a 50:50 mixture of Freund's complete adjuvant and water for irrigation. A volume of 0.1 ml was injected.
Topical application: Approximately 0.4 ml of Ammonium dimolybdate in distilled water
- Control group: During the induction phase, the control animals were treated similarly to the test animals with the exception that the test substance was omitted from the intradermal injections and topical application.
- Site: A 40 x 60 mm area of dorsal skin on the scapular region of the guinea-pig was clipped free of hair with electric clippers. Three pairs of intradermal injections were made into a 2 x 4 cm area within the clipped area. The same 40 x 60 mm intrascapular area was clipped and shaved for the topical application.
- Frequency of applications: The intradermal injections were given once and 7 days later the topical application was carried out.
B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: Day 21
- Exposure period: 24 hours
- Site (control and test group): Hair was removed by clipping and then shaving from an area on the left flank. A 20 x 20 mm patch of Whatman No. 3 paper was saturated with approximately 0.2 ml of Ammonium dimolybdate, 90 % w/w in distilled water and applied to an anterior site on the flank. Ammonium dimolybdate, 45 % w/w in distilled water was applied in a similar manner to a posterior site.
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): The challenge sites were evaluated 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of the patches.
OTHER:
A second challenge application was made one week later to differentiate between irritation and allergic resonses following observation of irritant reactions in the control animals after the first challenge. The method employed was similar to that described earlier, with the exception that on this occasion Ammonium dimolybdate, 50 and 25% w/w in distilled water, was applied to the right flank of all the control and test animals.
GRADING SYSTEM for evaluating dermal reactions:
Erythema and eschar formation:
No erythema = 0
Slight erythema = 1
Well-defined erythema = 2
Moderate erythema = 3
Severe erythema (beet redness) to slight eschar formation (injuries in depth) = 4
Oedema formation:
No oedema = 0
Slight oedema = 1
Well-defined oedema (edges of area well-defined by definite raising) = 2
Moderate oedema (raised approximately 1 millimetre) = 3
Severe oedema (raised more than 1 millimetre and extending beyond the area of exposure) = 4
Any other lesion not covered by this scoring system was described.
No further significant information on study design were stated. - Challenge controls:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not sensitising
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- In this test, performed in twenty albino guinea-pigs Ammonium dimolybdate produced evidence of skin sensitisation (delayed contact hypersensitivity) in four animals. This was confirmed by a second challenge application for one animal only.
