Materials and methods
Test guideline
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 406 (Skin Sensitisation)
- Deviations:
- yes
- Remarks:
- A re-challenge is done after 16 not 7 days. Testing additional animals is strongly recommended when fewer than 20 test and 10 control guinea pigs have been used and it is not posible to conclude that the test substance is a sensitiser.
- GLP compliance:
- yes
- Type of study:
- guinea pig maximisation test
- Justification for non-LLNA method:
- An LLNA study was not performed because the test method is not considered to be suitable for substances that contain silicon. Please refer to the attached document for further details.

- Identification: By unique cage number and corresponding individual ear tag.
- Randomization: Selected by hand at time of delivery. No computer generated randomization program.
- Acclimation period: Twelve days for the control and test group under laboratory conditions after health examination. No acclimation period for the animals of the pretest. Only animals without any visible signs of illness were used for the study. A certificate of health was provided by the animal supplier at the animal delivery and included in the raw data.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): Air-conditioned with ranges for room temperature 22 ± 3 °C
- Humidity (%): 30-70%
- Air changes (per hr): 10-15
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12 hours light/ 12 hours dark
- Room temperature and humidity were monitored continuously and values outside of these ranges occasionally occurred, usually following room cleaning. These transient variations are considered not to have any influence on the study and, therefore, these data are not reported but are retained at Harlan Laboratories. Music was played during the daytime light period.

- Details on study design:
- The dose levels of 3-(triethoxysilyl)propiononitrile used in the main study were based on results from intradermal and epidermal pretests.
The intradermal induction of sensitization in the test group was performed in the nuchal region with a 50% dilution of the test item in diglyme and in an emulsion of Freund's Complete Adjuvant (FCA)/physiological saline. The epidermal induction of sensitization was conducted for 48 hours under occlusion with the test item at 100% (undiluted) one week after the intradermal induction. The animals of the control group were intradermally induced with diglyme and FCA/physiological saline and epidermally induced with diglyme under occlusion. Two weeks after epidermal induction the control and test animals were challenged by epidermal application of the test item at 25% in diglyme and diglyme alone under occlusive dressing. Sixteen days after the first challenge a second challenge was performed in the same way as the previous challenge using the test group only and the test item at 25% in diglyme applied on a naive skin site. - Challenge controls:
- The animals of the control group were intradermally induced with diglyme and FCA/physiological saline and epidermally induced with diglyme under occlusion.
- Positive control substance(s):
- yes
- Remarks:
- ALPHA-HEXYLCINNAMALDEHYDE at 1% (w/w) in PEG 300
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- The sensitivity and reliability of the experimental technique employed was assessed by use of ALPHA-HEXYLCINNAMALDEHYDE which is recommended by the OECD 406 Guidelines and is known to have moderate skin sensitization properties in the guinea pig strain. The results from the most recent test run (Harlan Laboratories Study C50652, performed from 27-May-2009 to 20-Jul-2009) ) follow:
One out of 10 test animals showed skin reactions after the first challenge treatment with ALPHA-HEXYLCINNAMALDEHYDE at 1% (w/w) in PEG 300. No skin effect was observed in the control group. Eighty to ninety percent of the test animals showed discrete/patchy erythema at the 24- or 48-hour reading
after the second challenge treatment with ALPHA-HEXYLCINNAMALDEHYDE at 3% (w/v) in PEG 300. No skin effect was observed in the control group.
