- RANGE FINDING TESTS:
Selection of concentration for intradermal induction: Intradermal injections (0.1 ml/injection site) were made with two guinea pigs, using concentrations of 1% and 5% w/w in distilled water. 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. 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 were treated with four preparations of the test material (50%, 25%, 10% and 5% w/w in distilled water). Applications were made to the clipped flanks under occlusive dressings for an exposure period of 48 hours. The degree of erythema and oedema was assessed approximately 1, 24 and 48 hours after removal.The highest concentration that caused only mild to moderate skin 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 distilled water) were applied to two guinea pigs under occlusive dressings for an exposure period of 24 hours. The degree of erythema and oedema was assessed approximately 1, 24 and 48 hours after 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.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 1A (indication of significant skin sensitising potential) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The test material produced a 70% sensitisation rate after an intradermal induction at 1% indicating that it is a strong sensitiser.
- Executive summary:
In a GLP-compliant OECD TG 406 skin sensitisation study according to Magnusson-Kligmann (guinea pig - maximisation test, GPMT), 10 test guinea pigs and 5 control animals were treated with the test material using water as a vehicle.
Based on the results of the pretests, a test substance concentration of 1% was used for intradermal induction (0.1 ml), followed by a 50% concentratio at epidermal induction. Challenge was performed using two concentrations, 5 and 10%. A rechallenge was also performed using 2 and 5% concentrations.
After challenge treatment, skin reactions were observed in 2 to 5 animals after 24 hours and 0 to 4 animals after 48 hours. After rechallenge, skin reactions were observed in 7 to 8 animals after 24 hours and 7 out of 10 animals after 48 hours.
Under the experimental conditions of this study, the test material is considered as a skin sensitiser.
