- Day(s) of challenge:
- Exposure period:
- Test groups:
- Control group:
- Site:
- Concentrations: 0.1% and 1% for intracutaneous and epicutaneous challenges respectively
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): Reactions evalauted 24 hours after intracutaneous challenge and 24 and 48 hours after epicutaneous challenge


OTHER:
Challenge controls:
Concomitant control animals were treated with the vehicle only. The sensitivity of the test system was tested every 6 months using Paraphenylene-diamine or Potassium dichromate as positive controls.
Positive control substance(s):
yes
Remarks:
See challenge controls above

Results and discussion

Positive control results:
The sensitivity of the test system was tested at six monthly intervals with paraphenylene-diamine or potassium dichromate. Historical positive control study results are not presented but the methods are assumed to be validated by the six-monthly posiitive control assessments.

Conclusions:
Cloquintocet-mexyl was found to have skin sensitising potential in the guinea pig (optimization test), 20/20 responded positively to the epicutaneous challenge.
Executive summary:

CGA185072 technical, purity 91.6%, batch P. 607001/002 was tested in a open epicutaneous maximisation test for sensitising potential. Guinea Pigs were allocated to control and test groups. In the induction phase: 0.1% CGA185072 in 20% propylene glycol + 80% physiological saline was injected in to the dorsum on three occasions in week 1. During the second and third week of the induction period, the test article was admixed to the vehicle and complete Freund’s adjuvant (1:1 v/v). A further 7 injections were administered every other day to give a total induction injection schedule of ten injections. Intracutaneous challenge was done with an injection of 0.1% CGA185072 in 20% propylene glycol + 80% physiological saline. Epicutaneous challenge: 1% of the test article in vaseline. It was shown in a pretest that this was the highest non-irritating concentration. Dosing procedure: During the induction phase, every second day one intracutaneous injection was made into the back skin of the animals (total of 10 injections). After three injections without adjuvants, the seven following injections were made with complete Freund’s adjuvants. Fourteen days after the induction, intradermal challenge was made by a single injection into the skin of the left flank. Ten days after intracutaneous challenge, epicutaneous challenge was done by 24 hours dermal administration of the test article in vaseline under occlusive dressing (right flank). After epidermal challenge application of cloquintocet-mexyl, all treated animals showed positive skin reactions.

Cloquintocet-mexyl was assessed in the guinea pup using an optimisation test protocol - 20/20 responded positively to the epicutaneous challenge indicating that the test substance has sensitisation potential by skin contact.
