Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 406 (Skin Sensitisation)
Version / remarks:
1981
EEC Directive 79/831
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The test was carried out according to the maximization test of Magnusson and Kligman (J. invst. Dermatol. 52, 268-276, 1969), recommended in the OECD guidelines 1981 and in the EEC directive 79/831.
GLP compliance:
yes
Type of study:
guinea pig maximisation test
Justification for non-LLNA method:
Study predates availability of the LLNA method.

Details on study design:
The concentrations of the test compound for induction and challenge periods were determined on separate animals.

A control group was treated with adjuvant and the vehicle during the induction period. During the challenge period the group was treated with the vehicle as well as .with the test compound to control the maximal subirritant concentration of the test compound in adjuvant treated animals.
Challenge controls:
yes
Positive control substance(s):
yes
Remarks:
p-phenylenediamine

Results and discussion
