- PRE-SCREEN TEST:
In the pre-screen test, 25 μL of the test item (0.5, 1, 2.5, 5 and 10% in MEK) were applied to the dorsum of both ears of two animals, once a day for 3 consecutive days. All animals were observed daily for clinical signs. Body weights were recorded prior to dosing and on the day of necropsy. Furthermore, erythema measurements were performed daily, ear thickness was measured on Day 1 (pre-dose) and Day 3 and 6.
- Compound solubility: The test item was soluble in the vehicle at a concentration of up to 10%.
- Systemic toxicity: No signs of toxicity were observed.
No further informations were given on results of the pre-screen test.
MAIN STUDY
ANIMAL ASSIGNMENT AND TREATMENT
- Name of test method: mouse local lymph node assay (LLNA): BrdU-ELISA
- Criteria used to consider a positive response: A substance is regarded as sensitizer in the LLNA test inducing a Stimulation Index (SI) ≥ 1.6.
TREATMENT PREPARATION AND ADMINISTRATION: Based on the negative results in the pre-screen test, the test item was used at 2.5, 5 and 10% concentration in the main study. 25 μL of each dose formulation were applied to the dorsum of both ears of each animal once a day for 3 consecutive days. Observations took place like described above for the pre-screen test. On Day 5, the animals were injected inter-peritoneally with 0.5 mL/animal of a BrdU solution (10 mg/mL in phosphate buffered saline (PBS)). The animals were sacrificed on Day 6, approximately 24 h after BrdU injection. Using a punch for skin biopsy of 6 mm in diameter the inner tissue of the ear was removed about 1 mm from the outside of the ear and tissues of both sides were weighed together. The draining auricular lymph nodes from each mouse ear were excised and processed separately in PBS for each animal. For each mouse, a single-cell suspension of lymph node cells (LNC) was prepared by #70 nylon mesh to generate a single cell suspension. BrdU was measured by ELISA using a commercial kit (Roche Applied Science, batch no. 24890800), according to manufacturer instructions. Absorbance (OD) was detected at 370 nm (with reference wavelength: 492 nm). - Positive control substance(s):
- hexyl cinnamic aldehyde (CAS No 101-86-0)
- Statistics:
- Statistical analysis was conducted using a statistical program (version 9.3, SAS Institute Inc., U.S.A.) for the data including body weight, erythema score, ear thickness, ear weight and stimulation index. Bartlett’s test was employed on homogeneity of variance (significance level: 0.05) for body weights, ear thickness, ear weight and stimulation index data. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was employed on homogeneous data. Dunnett’s ttest was applied for multiple comparisons (significance levels: 0.05 and 0.01, one-tailed) between the negative control group and each of the test substance groups or positive control group (G5). Since not significant, Kruskal-Wallis test was employed on heterogeneous data and Steel’s test was applied for multiple comparisons (significance levels: 0.05 and 0.01, one-tailed) between the negative control group and each of the test substance groups or positive control group.
Kruskal-Wallis test for the erythema score was employed on heterogeneous data, and Steel’s test was applied for multiple comparisons (significance levels: 0.05 and 0.01, one-tailed) between the negative control group and each of the test substance groups or positive control group.
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- The positive control substance (25% HCA) induced a positive reaction, determined by a SI of 2.53. Thus, the study was considered as valid.

DETAILS ON STIMULATION INDEX (SI) CALCULATION :
BrdU labelling index = (ABS em – ABS blank em) – (ABS ref – ABS blank ref)
em = Emission wavelength
ref = Reference wavelength
SI = Mean of BrdU labelling index/mouse of test substance/ Mean of BrdU labelling index of negative control
CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS: Neither mortality nor clinical signs were observed in animals treated at all investigated dose levels.
BODY WEIGHTS: No significant changes in body weight were observed during the study.
OTHER OBSERVATIONS:
Erythema: No erythema were observed in the treated animals at any dose or reading time point.
Ear thickness: On Day 6, a significant, but not relevant increase was observed in the highest dose group (10%) when compared to the negative control (Mean ± SD: 0.22 ± 0.0 mm vs. 0.21 ± 0.0 mm (NC), respectively). Except of this, no significant differences when compared to the negative control group.
Ear weight: There were no significant differences when compared to the negative control group.
