Materials and methods
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The skin sensitization potential of palm oil was evaluated in the Magnusson-Kligman Maximization Test. Induction phase consisted of intradermal injection of 5% palm oil followed by epicutaneous application of 100% palm oil as booster. All the groups were challenged with 0.5 mL 5% palm oil. Reactions were observed 24 and 48 h after patch removal.

- INDUCTION:
During the induction, 3 pairs of sites per animals in the test group were injected with following materials:
5% palm oil in propylene glycol
5% palm oil in 50% aqueous Freund's Complete Adjuvant
50% Freund's Complete Adjuvant
Each material (0.5 mL) was injected intradermally.
In the booster phase, initiated 1 wk after induction, an occlusive dressing pad containing full strength palm oil (0.5 mL) was applied on the induction injection sites on each animal in the test group.
CHALLENGE:
2 wks after the booster phase, animals in first and second test groups were challenged with 0.5 mL 5% palm oil. Patches were applied to previously untreated sites and remained in place for 24 h. Reactions were observed 24 and 48 h after patch removal.
SCORING:
Following scale was used during the observation of skin sensitization:
0 (no evidence of any effects) to 4 (severe, deep red erythema with vesiculation or weeping with or without edema). - Challenge controls:
- The three pairs of sites on each control animal were injected intradermally with full strength propylene glycol, 1:1 propylene glycol: 50% aqueous Freund's Complete Adjuvant, 50% aqueous Freund's Complete Adjuvant respectively, during induction. 1 wk after induction, a full strength petrolatum (booster) was applied according to the same procedure as in the test group.

- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- Under the test conditions, 5% test substance was found to be non-sensitizing to guinea pigs.
- Executive summary:
The skin sensitization potential of ‘glycerides, C16-18 and C18-unsatd.’ (as palm oil) was evaluated in the Magnusson-Kligman Maximization Test, using three groups of 10 female guinea pigs of the Hartley strain.
In the induction phase, the test group was injected with: 5% test substance in propylene glycol, 5% test substance in 50% aqueous Freund's Complete Adjuvant and 50% Freund's Complete Adjuvant. In the booster phase, full strength test substance (0.5 mL) was applied occlusively. Two of the groups served as controls. All the groups were challenged with 0.5 mL 5% test substance. Reactions were observed 24 and 48 h after patch removal.
No reactions were observed in any of the tested group.
Under the test conditions, 5% test substance was found to be non-sensitizing to guinea pigs.
