Details on study design:
Site preparation:

SCREEN:
Each animal received 4 concentration of the test article, one/site. Each concentration (10, 25, 50, 100%) was placed in 25 mm Hilltop Chamber contained a cotton pad. The sites were covered with a strip of rubber dental dam to cover the treated sites and wrapped with tape to provide occlusion. After 6 hours the dams and test article were removed and the sites cleaned with distilled water and dried with a soft towel.

INDUCTION EXPOSURE
Group 1 (10 males and 10 females) was treated with 0.4 ml of the test article (100%). The dose was applied to the left shoulder area (site1) using 25 mm Hilltop Chamber contained a cotton pad in order to facilitate the contact of the liquid test article with the site. The chamber was covered with a strip of rubber dental dam and the torso was wrapped with no-irritant tape to provide occlusion. After 6 hours, the dam and test articles were removed and the site was cleaned with ethanol.
This procedure was performed one/week for three weeks. Group 2 (5 males and 5 females) were untreated for three weeks induction and served as negative control.

CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
After 14 days from the last induction, the animals of Group 1 and 2 were challanged using the same dosing procedure as in the induction phase. 100% was chosen as the highest non-irritating concentration for the challange (based on the screen results). The doses were applied to Site 3, lower left dorsal area.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
Not sensitising
Conclusions:
Based on the results observed, Santicizer P1400 was determined to not be a dermal sensitizer under the conditions of this delayed contact dermal sensitization test in guinea pigs.
Executive summary:

In a key EPA OPPTS Guideline 870.2600 delayed contact dermal sensitization study, the potential of the test material (Santicizer P1400) to promote skin sensitization reactions following repeated applications was evaluated in guinea pigs using the Buehler method.

 

Seventeen healthy male and female Hartley Albino guinea pigs were utilized in the study. Four guinea pigs were used to screen for the highest non-irritating concentration which produced scores no more severe than two scores 0.5 and two scores of 0. Based on the results of this screen, 100% was selected as the highest non-irritating concentration for the challenge and administered to two groups of guinea pigs (Group 1 and Group 2) two weeks subsequent to the third induction.

 

Group 1 (10 males and 10 females) was induced with the test material at a concentration of 100%. Group 2 (5 males and 5 females) animals were not induced and served as the naïve control. For the induction phase, a dose of 0.4 mL (100% concentration) was applied to the left shoulder area (25 mm2area) of 10 male and 10 females guinea pigs in Group1. After application, the torso was wrapped with non-irritant tape to provide occlusion. The site was exposed for 6 hours and then cleaned with ethanol. Group 1 animals received three topical induction applications, one per week for three weeks. Skin reactions of all animals were recorded 24 and 48 hours following patch removal. 14 days after the last treatment, animals of Group 1 and 2 were challenged following the same procedure as used for the induction phase. The dose was applied on the lower left dorsal area. Body weights were recorded pretest and at termination and all animals were observed once per day for mortality and toxicity. 85% hexylcinnemaldehyde (HCA) was the historical positive control with its toxicity confirmed in the laboratory every six months.

 

No mortality was observed and body weight changes in all animals were normal through the study period. Treated as well as control animals appeared normal through the observation period. Erythema was absent at induction as well as at challenge in both the induced as well as naïve control groups.

 

Based on the results observed, Santicizer P1400 was determined to not be a dermal sensitizer under the conditions of this delayed contact dermal sensitization test in guinea pigs.
