Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
Skin Sensitisation (Ear/Flank Method, Stevens (1967))
Seven male guinea pigs were used for this test. On days 0, 1 and 2 of the test, 0.1 ml of the test agent was applied to the outer surface of the ears of four animals only. On day 6, 0.2 ml of the challenge solutions in dimethyl formamide (DMF) were applied topically to the clipped flanks of all seven animals. On day 7 the erythema which had developed at each site was rated on a 5-point scale. In the pre-treated animals, only erythema in excess of that present in the controls was considered to denote sensitisation; that present in the controls, denoted simple primary irritation.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of study:
other: Stevens ear/flank test
Justification for non-LLNA method:
The test method was not available at the time of testing
