Two positive control groups of 50 male mice were painted three times weekly with 0.05% and 0.15% BP, respectively. The designated doses were delivered in 0.05 ml aliquots to a shaved 1 square centimeter area of skin in the interscapular region.
Examinations
- Observations and examinations performed and frequency:
- CAGE SIDE OBSERVATIONS: Yes
- Time schedule: daily
DETAILED CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS: Yes
- Time schedule: 3 times per week
DERMAL IRRITATION (if dermal study): Yes
- Time schedule for examinations: 3 times per week
BODY WEIGHT: Yes
- Time schedule for examinations: twice per month - Sacrifice and pathology:
- GROSS PATHOLOGY: Yes
HISTOPATHOLOGY: Yes. All applications sites were examined. All tumors and suspect lesions were diagnosed microscopically. All tumors and other pathological lesions were examined histologically. Sections of skin, lung, liver, kidney, urinary bladder, and other gross pathology were preserved in 10% phosphate buffered formalin, stained with hematoxylin and eosin, and examined microscopically. - Statistics:
- Where appropriate, statistical analyses using Fisher's Exact Test and the reference Biometrika Tables for Statisticians vol I (Cambridge Univ. Press, 1966, pp 73-80) were applied. In addition the Chi-square distribution was calculated according to Colton (Statistics in Medicine, Theodor Colton, Little, Brown and Co., Boston, 1974, pp 176-7, 348). For possible rare tumors designated in the text probabilities were also calculated using the Poisson distribution . Unless designated otherwise, the Chi-square calculation was applied.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The incidence of skin carcinomas, liver hemangiomas, lung adenomas, and malignant lymphomas was no greater with the test substance than for the negative control group. Unleaded gasoline did not display chronic dermal toxicant properties in this study. This finding does not warrant the classification of unleaded gasoline as a chronic dermal toxicant under Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 on classification, labeling, and packaging of substances and mixtures (CLP).
- Executive summary:
Unleaded gasoline was examined for its chronic dermal toxicity potential. Unleaded gasoline was administered via dermal application to the skin of 50 Swiss mice three times per week for two years. A negative control group was not treated while the two positive control groups were administered 0.05 ml of 0.05% BaP and 0.05 ml of 0.15% BaP in acetone. The test substance caused hyperkeratosis, fibrosis of the dermis, extoabscess and skin ulceration in the treatment areas. The incidence of skin carcinomas, liver hemangiomas, lung adenomas, and malignant lymphomas was no greater with the test substance than for the negative control group. Unleaded gasoline did not display chronic dermal toxicant properties in this study. This finding does not warrant the classification of unleaded gasoline as a chronic dermal toxicant under Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 on classification, labeling, and packaging of substances and mixtures (CLP).
