Constituent 1
In vivo test system
Test animals
- Species:
- mouse
- Strain:
- other: CBA/Ca
- Sex:
- female
- Details on test animals and environmental conditions:
- no data
Study design: in vivo (non-LLNA)
- Details on study design:
- 1st application: Induction 1 % open epicutaneous
Study design: in vivo (LLNA)
- Vehicle:
- other: acetone
- Concentration:
- In the first step concentrations of 1, 3 and 10% of the test substance in acetone were used. As
Iymph fade reactions and increases in ear weight were produced by all concentrations, in the second step concentrations of 0.1, 0.3 and 1 % were examined in order to determine a concentration not inducing lymph node reactions. - No. of animals per dose:
- 6 females
- Details on study design:
- Each test animal was applied with 25 µl per ear of the respective test substance preparation to the dorsum of both ears tor three consecutive days. The control group was treated with 25 µl per ear of the vehicle alone.
Three days after the last application the mice were sacrificed and the auricular lymph nodes were removed. Lymph node response was evaluated by measuring the cellular content (indicator of cell proliferation) and weight of each animal's pooled Iymph nodes. Moreover, a defined area with a diameter of 0.8 cm was punched out of the apical part of each ear and tor each animal the weight of the pooled punches was determined in order to obtain an indication of possible skin Irritation. In addition the body weight change over the study period was determined. - Statistics:
- The statistical evaluations were performed using the WILCOXON-test ( # for p <= 0.05, ## for p <= 0.01).

No signs of systemic toxicity were noticed. The test substance induced a statistically significant and biologically relevant proliferation of the auricular lymph nodes and cell counts when applied as 1, 3 and 10% test substance preparation in acetone to the ear of the mice. A statistically significant increase in lymph node weights but not in lymph node cellularity was observed at the test substance concentration of 0.3%. The increased ear weights (6 to 38% in the treatments 1 to 10%) and clinical signs of skin irritation (incrustation in 5 animals, scaling in 1 animal applied with the 10% test substance preparation and incrustation in 1 animal applied with the 3% test substance preparation) indicated a significant irritant property of the test substance at concentrations of 1%, 3% and 10%.
