Any other information on results incl. tables

Maximum concentration not causing irritating effects in preliminary test: 10 %

Signs of irritation during induction:

With intradermal injection on day 1 (concentration selected according to the results of the pretests).

With epidermal application of the substance on day 8 (during 48 hours).

Evidence of sensitisation of each challenge concentration:

The substance causes delayed contact hypersensitivity in 15/20 (75 %) of the animals.

Due to the substance, a yellowish discoloration of the treated area of the body was observed in all of the animals from both of the groups. It could have hidden a possible separate or moderate erythema (grade 1 or 2) in some of the animals at the 24-h measurement value. Dryness of the skin was observed in 3/10 of the animals from the control group at the 48-h measurement value. The dryness of the skin is sometimes associated with scabs and/or oedemas. The dryness of the skin was observed in 16/20 of the animals from the treated group at the 48-h measurement value.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Under the test conditions the substance caused delayed contact hypersensitivity in 75 % of the animals.
Executive summary:

A Guinea Pig Maximisation test was conducted according to OECD guideline 406 and EU method B.6. Dunkey-Harley guinea pigs were induced to develop a hipersensitive state by intradermal injections of 1 % of the test substance in 0.9 % NaCl, with this intradermal injection there were signs of irritation. On day 8 animals were re-induced through an epidermal application of the test substance at 10 % (g/g) in 0.9 % NaCl, there were signs of irritation. The challenge phase of the experiment was performed through an epidermal application of the substance at a concentration of 10 % (g/g) in 0.9 % NaCl. The test substance caused delayed contact hypersensitivity in 15/20 (75%) of the animals.
