- RANGE FINDING TESTS: The concentrations of test material to be used at each stage of the main study were determined by "sighting tests" in which groups of guinea pigs were treated with various concentrations of test material.
Sighting test -- Intradermal induction:
Intradermal injections (0.1 ml/injection site) were made on the clipped shoulder of two guinea pigs, using concentrations of 1% and 5% v/v in arachis oil BP. 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. Any evidence of systemic toxicity was also recorded. The highest concentration that caused only mild to moderate skin irritation, an which was well tolerated systemically, was selected for the intradermal induction stage of the main study.
Sighting test -- Topical induction:
Two guinea pigs (intradermally injected with Freund’s Complete Adjuvant fifteen days earlier) were treated with undiluted test material and 3 preparations of the test material (75%, 50% and 25% v/v in arachis oil BP). Applications were made to the clipped flanks under occlusive dressings for an exposure period of 48 hours. The degree of erythema and oedema was evaluated approx. 1, 24 and 48 hours after dressing removal. The highest concentration producing only mild to moderate dermal irritation was selected for the topical induction stage of the main study.
Sighting test -- Topical challenge:
The undiluted test material and 3 preparations of the test material (75%, 50% and 25% v/v in arachis oil BP) were applied to clipped flanks of two guinea pigs under occlusive dressings for an exposure period of 24 hours. These guinea pigs did not form part of the main study but had been treated identically to the control animals of the main study up to day 14. The degree of erythema and oedema was evaluated approx. 1, 24 and 48 hours after dressing removal. The highest non-irritant concentration of the test material and one lower concentration were selected for the topical challenge of the main study.

- Interpretation of results:
- not sensitising
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the test, the test material produced a 0% (0/20) sensitisation rate and was classified as a non-sensitiser to guinea pig skin.
- Executive summary:
The study was performed to assess the contact sensitisation potential of the test material in the albino guinea pig.
20 test and 10 control animals were used for the study. 2 phases were involved in the main study: an induction of a response by intradermal injection and topical application and a topical challenge of that response.
Under the conditions of the test, the test material produced a 0% (0/20) sensitisation rate and was classified as a non-sensitiser to guinea pig skin.

Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
- Additional information:
The skin sensitization potential in albino guinea pigs was evaluated by the Magnusson and Kligman maximization method (according to OECD TG 406; Sanders 2001f (K1)).
Two phases were involved in the main study: (1) an induction of a response by intradermal injection (5% v/v in arachis oil BP) and topical application (undiluted), (2) a topical challenge (undiluted and 75% v/v in arachis oil BP) of that response.
The test substance produced a 0% (0/20) sensitization rate after 48 h.
Migrated from Short description of key information:
The skin sensitization potential in albino guinea pigs was evaluated by the Magnusson and Kligman maximization method. Since the test substance produced a 0% sensitization rate, the substance is not classified as a skin sensitizer.
Justification for selection of skin sensitisation endpoint:
Well-documented study according to international guideline.
Respiratory sensitisation
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no study available
Justification for classification or non-classification
According to the CLP criteria (3.4.2.2.3), a response of at least 30% of the animals in case of an adjuvant test method for skin sensitisation is considered as positive. Since the test substance produced a 0% (0/20) sensitization rate after 48 h, It is therefore concluded that the substance is not classified as a skin sensitizer according to the CLP Regulation.
According to the criteria described in section 3.2.7 of Annex VI to Council Directive 67/548/EEC on the Classification, Packaging and Labelling of Dangerous Substances (DSD), the result of the skin sensitisation test does not require a classification for skin sensitising properties.
