Description of key information
One reliable (Klimisch 1) sensitisation study was available for Cyclohexanol, 4-C11-12-alkyl, branched. The sensitising properties of Cyclohexanol, 4-C11-12-alkyl, branched to mice, assessed as a Local Lymph Node Assay (LLNA) was reported by Lütkenhaus K., (2012) in an OECD 429 guideline and GLP compliant study.
Based on the results of the prescreen test the test item Cyclohexanol, 4 -C11 -12 -alkyl, branched was assessed for sensitising properties at concentrations of 6.25%, 12.5% and 25% (v/v), each diluted with AOO (4:1(v/v) acetone/olive oil). At the daily clinical observation the animals did not show any visible clinical symptoms and no case of mortality was observed. 5 mice per test and control group were examined.
Two of three tested concentrations exceeded the stimulation index of 3 (SI = 2,1 at 6.25%, SI = 3.7 at 12.5% and SI = 9.3 at 25% test substance concentration). The EC3 value (derived by linear interpolation) was calculated to be at a test item concentration of 9.72%.

MAIN STUDY
ANIMAL ASSIGNMENT AND TREATMENT
- Name of test method: Local lymph node assay
- Criteria used to consider a positive response: Stimulation Index equal to or greater than 3.0
TREATMENT PREPARATION AND ADMINISTRATION:
- Clinical observation: prior to application and once a day thereafter all animals were observed in order to detect signs of toxicity, including dermal irritation at site of application
- Weight assessment: animals were weighed prior to the application and at the end of the test period (prior to the treatment with 3HTdR)
- Dose groups: 3 test groups (6.25, 12.5 and 25%) and 1 negative control group (vehicle: AOO, 4:1 (v/v) acetone/olive oil), 5 animals per group
- Test regime:
Topical application: application of 25 µl of the selected solution to the entire dorsal surface of each ear, performed once daily over 3 consecutive days
Administration of 3H-methyl thymidine: dosing with 20 µCi 3H-methyl thymidine by intravenous injection (tail vein) of 250 µL 3H-methyl thymidine, diluted to a working concentration of 80 µCi/mL 5 days after the first topical application
Preparation of cell suspension: 5 hours after 3H-methyl thymidine test animals were sacrificed by cervical dislocation, the draining auricular lymph nodes were excised, individually pooled for each animal (2 lymph nodes per animal), cell suspensions of lymph node cells were prepared according to guideline, transferred into scintillation vials and stored at room temperature overnight
Determination of incorporated 3H-methyl thymidine: measurement in a ß-counter and expressed as number of disintegrations per minute (DPM), background 3H-methyl thymidine levels also measured (5% trichloroacetic acid), determination of radioactivity performed individually for each animal - Positive control substance(s):
- other: P-Phenylenediammine
- Statistics:
- Calculation of mean values and standard deviation, test on outliers (Grubbs, Nalimov and Dixon), EC3 values (determined by linear interpolation: EC3 = c+[(3-d)/(b-d)]x(a-c), between two points of the stimulation indices axis, one above (a,b) and one below (c,d) the stimulation index of three)
- Positive control results:
- Reliability checks were performed on a regular basis in the test laboratory, the recent reliability check performed in October 2012.
Positive control substance: P-Phenylenediammine (CAS 106-50-3, Sigma, puritiy > 98%, Lot 041M0045V) 1%
Vehicle: AOO (4:1 (v/v) acetone/olive oil)
Species/strain: healthy CBA/CaOlaHsd mice
Source: Harlan Winkelmann, Borchen, Germany
Concentrations: 1% on 3 consecutive days
Results: SI = 8.5 ± 2.4 - Key result
- Parameter:
- SI
- Remarks on result:
- other: Stimulation indices at test substance concentrations (2 of 3 tested concentrations exceeded the stimulation index of 3): 6.25%, SI = 2.1 12.5%: SI = 3.7 25%: SI = 9.3 EC3 = 9.72% (derived by linear interpolation)
- Parameter:
- other: disintegrations per minute (DPM)
- Remarks on result:
- other: see table below
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 1B (indication of skin sensitising potential) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The EC3 value (derived by linear interpolation) was calculated to be at a test item concentration of 9.72%. According to the guideline solutions or preparations containing more than 9.72% Cyclohexanol, 4-C11-12-alkyl, branched are expected to have a stimulation index of > 3 and are therefore considered to be dermal sensitiser.
- Executive summary:
A sensitisation study (Local Lymph Node Assay) with Cyclohexanol, 4 -C11 -12 -alkyl, branched was performed on mice according to OECD Guideline 429, adopted July 22, 2010.
