- Age at study initiation: approximately four to seven weeks of age
- Weight at study initiation: 353 - 445g
- Housing: The guinea-pigs were housed in groups of five in suspended metal cages with wire mesh floors.
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): A vitamin C enriched guinea-pig diet (Harlan Teklad 9600 FD2 SQC)
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): ad libitum
- Acclimation period: five days days prior to the start of the main study

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 16.5 to 29
- Humidity (%): 43 - 70

Details on study design:
RANGE FINDING TESTS:
The intradermal and topical irritancy of a range of dilutions of the test substance was investigated to identify where possible (a) concentrations of the test substance that would produce irritation suitable for the induction phase of the main study and (b) a maximum non-irritant concentration by the topical route of adminstration for the challenge phase.
The animals for the topical irritancy investigations were pre-treated with an intradermal injection of Freund's complete adjuvant, 50:50 with water for irrigation (Ph.Eur.), approximately one week prior to the start of the preliminary investigations.

MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: Once (injection) and once (topical)
- Exposure period: Single injection and topical 48 hours
- Test groups: 10 males for intradermal injections and topical application
- Control group: 5 males for intradermal injections and topical application
- Site: Scapular region
- Frequency of applications: Topical followed one week after injection
- Duration: 21 days
- Concentrations:
1. Intradermal injections
Control animals: 1) 0.1ml of Freund's complete adjuvant 50:50 with sterile water for irritation (Ph. Eur.). 2) 0.1ml of Alembicol D. 3) 0.1ml of Freund's complete adjuvant 50:50 with Alembicol D.
Test animals: 1) 0.1ml of Freund's complete adjuvant 50:50 with sterile water for injection (Ph.Eur.). 2) 0.1ml of the test substance, 2.5% v/v in Alembicol D. 3) 0.1ml of the test substance, 2.5% v/v in a 50:50 mixture of Alembicol D and Freund's complete adjuvant.
A volume of 0.1ml was injected into both the left and right injection sites.
2. Topical application
Control animals : Alembicol D
Test animals: The test substance, 7.5% w/v in Alembicol D

B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: Once
- Day(s) of challenge: Two weeks after the topical induction.
- Exposure period: 24 hours
- Test groups: 10 males
- Control group: 5 males
- Site: left flank
- Concentrations: The test substance, 7.5 and 3.75% w/v in Alembicol D.
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): The challenges sites were evalutaed 24 and 48 hours after removal of the patches.

OTHER:
Challenge controls:
The control animals was challenged topically two weeks after the topical induction application using the same procedure for test animals but with vehicle control.
Positive control substance(s):
yes
Remarks:
Hexyl cinnamic aldehyde (HCA), Benzocaine and 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT)

Results and discussion

Positive control results:
The MBT produced evidence of skin sensitisation (delayed contact hypersensitivity) in all of the ten animals.

Any other information on results incl. tables

A few days after removal of the bandages from the induction topical application the entire site turn necrotic for most animals. This necrosis gradually resolved over the period of the study. No signs of ill health or toxicity were recorded.

Bodyweight increases were recorded for all guinea-pig over the period of the study.

Dermal reactions observed after the challenge application.
