- No. of animals per dose:
- Irritation screening study: 2 per sex
Mean study: 5 per sex (control), 10 per sex (test groups) - Details on study design:
- RANGE FINDING TESTS: For the determination of the irritation threshold the test substance was administered epicutaneously to four animals at concentrations of 1, 5, 10 and 25% (w/v) in propylene glycol with each animal receiving all doses. After 6 h the patches and any residual test substance were removed. The observation of dermal reaction at 24, 48 and 72 h after test substance application showed no dermal irritation at 1%, a very faint erythema (score of 0.5) at one of the four sites at 5% and faint (score of 1.0 at two sites) to moderate (score of 2.0 with blanching at one site) at 10%. Moderate (score of 2.0 with blanching at one site) to strong (score of 3.0 with subcutaneous hemorrhaging and necrotic appearing areas at three sites) erythema reactions were observed at the highest concentration (25%). Based on the results of the screening test a concentration of 10% (w/v) was applied in the induction phase and 5% (w/v) was applied in the challenge phase of the main study.
MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 3
- Exposure period: one week
- Test groups: 10% (w/v) test substance in dermal vehicle (propylene glycol)
- Control group: no treatment
- Site: along the dorsal anterior left quadrant
- Frequency of applications: one application per week
B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: not specified
- Exposure period: 24 h
- Test groups: 5% (w/v) test substance in dermal vehicle (propylene glycol)
- Control group: 5% (w/v) test substance in dermal vehicle (propylene glycol)
- Site: along the dorsal anteriar right quadrant
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 24 h
OTHER:
- Clinical signs: The animals were observed for clinical signs daily throughout the study.
- Body weights: The body weights of the animals were recorded before the initial treatment and at termination. Animals of the irritation screening study were weighed only on the day of treatment. - Challenge controls:
- The control group is actually a challenge control.
- Positive control substance(s):
- yes
- Remarks:
- alpha-hexylcinnamaldehyde (epicutaneous induction: 2.5% (w/v) in ethanol, challenge: 1.0, 2.5 and 5.0% (w/v) in acetone)
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- Challenge with alpha-hexylcinnamaldehyde resulted in a positive response in test animals previously sensitised. Very faint to faint erythema reactions (scores of 0.5 - 1.0) were observed in 5/10 test animals at 1.0 and 2.5% (w/v) test substance in acetone. Very faint (score of 0.5 in 2/10 animals), faint (score of 1.0 in 3/10 animals) and moderate (score of 2.0 in 2/10 animals) erythema reactions were observed at 5.0% (w/v). In the control animals no erythema reactions were found following challenge with the test substance in acetone at 1.0 and 2.5%. Very faint erythema reaction was seen in 1/5 control animal at 5% at challenge.
