PRE-LIMINARY TESTS:
The folowing concentrations were identified in the preliminary test to be non-irritating and slightly irritating following intracutaneous or epidermal application:
intracutaneous, non-irritatin (induction)g: 5%
epidermal, slightly irritating (induction): 100%
epidermal, non-irritatlng (challenge): 50%

MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- Day of application: 1
- Route of application: Intracutaneous injection
- No. of applications: 6 in total (2 x FCA/physiological saline solution (1:1), 2 x test substance, 2 x test substance/FCA (1:1); i.c. injections were made in two parallel lines in an area of 4x6 cm on day 1)
- Site: Scapular area
- Concentration: 5%
- Controls: treated accordingly, only vehicle was applied instead of test substance


Epidermal application:
- Day of Application: 8
- Route of application: occlusive patch
- Concentration of test substance: 100%
- Application site: Scapular area
- Number of applications: 1
- Duration of application: 48 h
- Control animals: Identical treatment with water instead of test substance

B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- Day(s) of challenge: 22
- No. of applications: 2
- Duration of application: 24 h
- Route of administration: Epidermal (occusive patch)
- Concentration: 30%
- Application site: right flank (vehicle), left flank (test substance)

- Evaluation (hr after challenge): on day 24 and 25 (24 and 48h after last challenge)

A substance is classified as skin-sensitizing if at least 30% of the treated animals show a skin reaction

Positive control substance(s):
no

Other observations:
Forty-eight hours after the end of exposure of epidermal challenge one animal of the test substance group showed a discrete or patchy erythema at the vehicle treated site (right flank).
