Materials and methods
- Type of study / information:
- The skin irritation effects (erythema and edema) of occlusive exposure to the test substance for 24 hours was assessed in volunteers.
- Endpoint addressed:
- skin irritation / corrosion
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- In a single exposure patch test, the undiluted test substance was applied to the back skin of volunteers for 24 hours under occlusive conditions. The skin irritation effects (erythema and edema) were assessed 30 minutes and 24 hours after patch removal.
- GLP compliance:
- no
Test material
- Reference substance name:
- Docosyl docosanoate
- EC Number:
- 241-646-5
- EC Name:
- Docosyl docosanoate
- Cas Number:
- 17671-27-1
- Molecular formula:
- C44H88O2

Constituent 1
Method
- Ethical approval:
- other: subjects signed an 'informed consent'-form
- Details on study design:
- In a single exposure patch test, 20 µL of the undiluted test substance was applied to the upper back skin of 11 volunteers. The test substance was placed in an aluminium cup (Finn Chamber Test) measuring 8 mm in diameter with a volume of 20 µL, covering an area of approximately 50 mm². The cup was fixed to the test area with adhesive tape and left for 24 hours. A positive control cup containing 1% solution of sodium sulfate and a negative control cup containing distilled water, was fixed to the skin in parallel with the test cup. The skin irritation effects (erythema, edema, vesicles, cutaneous dryness, wrinkling, glazing) were assessed 30 minutes and 24 hours after patch removal and the subjective experience of the volunteers was recorded.
- Exposure assessment:
- not specified
- Details on exposure:
- TYPE OF EXPOSURE: dermal
EXPOSURE PERIOD: 24 hours
POSTEXPOSURE PERIOD: 24 hours
Results and discussion
- Results:
- 1/11 subjects were excluded as moderate erythema was noted at the negative control site. Slight to moderate erythema was observed at the test site in 3/10 subjects 30 minutes after exposure ended and in 1/10 24 hours after patch removal. The positive control was shown to be valid, as slight to moderate erythema was noted at the positive control site in 11/11 subjects.
