Description of key information
Skin sensitisation
The delayed contact hypersensivity of was evaluated in Guinea pigs according to OECD N°406 guideline (Magnusson and Kligman test) (Guillot, 1990a).
The induction phase has been realized both by intradermal route on day 1 (0.5% in vehicle) and by cutaneous route on day 9 (2.5%) in 2 groups of guinea pigs: 10 males and 10 females for control group and 10 males and 10 females for treated group. The challenge phase was realized on day 22 by cutaneous application of 0.25 and 0.5 % on the left flank (vehicle on the right flank); the cutaneous reactions were scored 5, 24 and 48 hours after the challenge phase.
From the macroscopic and histological results obtained under the experimental conditions it may be concluded that the test article provoked:
- In the 10 guinea-pigs of the group treated with the test article in a 0.25% solution, reactions of sensitization in 3 animals, reactions of mixed type (allergy and orthoergy) in 4 guinea-pigs and lesions of orthoergic intolerance in the 3 other animals, this last phenomenon can hide possible reactions of allergic type.
- In the 10 guinea-pigs of the group treated with the test article in a 0.5% solution, reactions of sensitization in 4 animals, and lesions of orthoergic intolerance in 5 other guinea-pigs, this last phenomenon can hide possible reactions of allergic type.
No significant abnormality was noted in the 10 animals of each one of both control groups treated at the same concentrations.
ln both cases and like during the previous study (Guillot, 1990b) carried out with the test article in a 1% solution, the sample studied can be considered as a caustic allergen.
Under these experimental conditions and according to the Magnusson and
Kligman method, the test item MONO-n-HEPTYLAMINE at the concentration of
0.25 % induced positive skin sensitization reactions in 7/10 guinea
pigs, and at the concentration of 0.5% induced positive skin
sensitization reactions in 4/10 guinea pigs. The test item is considered
as sensitizing to the guinea pig.
