- RANGE FINDING TESTS:
Selection of Concentrations for Main Study (Sighting Tests)
The concentrations of test material to be used at each stage of the main study were determined by 'sighting tests' in which groups of guinea pigs were treated with various concentrations of test material. The procedures were as follows:
Selection of Concentration for Intradermal Induction
Intradermal injections (0.1 ml/injection site) were made on the clipped shoulder of two guinea pigs, using a range of concentrations (1% and 5% w/w in arachis oil BP). The degree of erythema at the injection sites was assessed approximately 24, 48, 72 hours and 7 days after injection. The degree of oedema was not evaluated. Any evidence of systemic toxicity was also recorded. The highest concentration that caused only mild to moderate skin irritation, and which was well tolerated systemically, was selected for the intradermal induction stage of the main study.
Selection of Concentration for Topical Induction
Two guinea pigs (intradermally injected with Freund's Complete Adjuvant nine days earlier) were treated with four preparations of the test material (50%, 25%, 10% and 5% w/w in arachis oil BP). Applications were made to the clipped flanks under occlusive dressings for an exposure period of 48 hours. The degree of erythema and oedema was evaluated approximately 1, 24 and 48 hours after dressing removal. The highest concentration producing only mild to moderate dermal irritation was selected for the topical induction stage of the main study.
Selection of Concentration for Topical Challenge
Four preparations of the test material (25%, 10%, 5% and 2% w/w in arachis oil BP) were applied to the clipped flanks of two guinea pigs under occlusive dressings for an exposure period of 24 hours. These guinea pigs did not form part of the main study but had been treated identically to the control animals of the main study, up to Day 14. The degree of erythema and oedema was evaluated approximately 1, 24 and 48 hours after dressing removal. The highest non-irritant concentration of the test material and one lower concentration were selected for the topical challenge stage of the main study.
MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 3 separate injections
- Exposure period: not applicable, as exposure by intradermal injection
- Test groups: 15 guinea pigs
- Control group: 5 guinea pigs - test material omitted from the intradermal injections. Injection b) was therefore the vehicle alone, injection c) was a 50% formulation of the vehicle in a 1:1 preparation of Freund’s Complete Adjuvant plus distilled water.
- Site: A row of three injections (0.1 ml each) was made on each side of the mid-line into a 20 mm x 40 mm area.
- Frequency of applications: 1 intradermal injection only
- Duration: not applicable
- Concentrations: The injections were:
a) Freund's Complete Adjuvant plus distilled water in the ratio 1:1
b) a 5% w/w formulation of the test material in arachis oil BP
c) a 5% w/w formulation of the test material in a 1:1 preparation of Freund's Complete Adjuvant plus distilled water.
B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1 (either 2% w/w or 1% w/w)
- Day(s) of challenge: Day 21
- Exposure period: 24 hours
- Test groups: 15 guinea pigs
- Control group: 5 guinea pigs
- Site: an area of approximately 50 mm x 70 mm on both flanks of each animal, was clipped free of hair with veterinary clippers
- Concentrations: maximum non-irritant concentration (2% w/w in arachis oil BP). To ensure that the maximum non-irritant concentration was used at challenge, the test material at a concentration of 1% w/w in arachis oil BP was similarly applied to a skin site on the left shorn flank.
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): Approximately 24 and 48 hours after challenge dressing removal, the degree of erythema and oedema was quantified
- Challenge controls:
- Challenge of control animals not described in report.
- Positive control substance(s):
- yes
- Remarks:
- 2-Mercaptobenzothiazole
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- 2-mercaptobenzothiazole achieved either a 90% or 100% positive response in six control studies conducted in the three years prior to the study.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not sensitising
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- The test material produced a 0% (0/9) sensitisation rate and was classified as a non-sensitiser to guinea pig skin under the conditions of the test.
- Executive summary:
Introduction. The study was performed to assess the contact sensitisation potential of the test material in the albino guinea pig. The method was designed to meet the requirements of the following:
§ OECD Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals No. 406 “Skin Sensitisation” (adopted 17 July 1992)
§ Commission Directive 96/54/EC Method B6 Acute Toxicity (Skin Sensitisation)
Method. Ten test and five control animals were used for the study. Two phases were involved in the main study; an induction of a response by intradermal injection and topical application and a topical challenge of that response.
Based on the results of sighting tests, the concentrations of test material for the induction and challenge phases were selected as:
Intradermal Induction : 5% w/w in arachis oil BP
Topical Induction : 25% w/w in arachis oil BP
Topical Challenge : 2% and 1% w/w in arachis oil BP
Conclusion. Under the conditions of the test, the test material produced a 0% (0/9) sensitisation rate and was classified as a non-sensitiser to guinea pig skin.
The test material did not meet the criteria for classification as a sensitiser according to EU labelling regulations Commission Directive 93/21/EEC. No symbol and risk phrase are required.
