Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 406 (Skin Sensitisation)
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
: test group only 10 instead of 20 animals, reliability check was performed more than 1 year before and not reported here
GLP compliance:
yes
Type of study:
Buehler test
Justification for non-LLNA method:
A valid Buehler test from 1992 was available, therefore no additional LLNA test was performed.

RANGE FINDING TESTS:
yes, 10, 20, 30, 40, 70 and 100 % of the test substance (0.08 mL each) in olive oil were applied to the flank of three guinea pigs.
A 10% concentration was found to be the maximum non-irritating dose for challenge-treatment.

MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 3
- Exposure period: 6 hours
- Test groups: 10 animals, TS
- Control group: 10 vehicle controls.
- Site: left cranial flank
- Frequency of applications: weekly
- Duration: 3 weeks
- Concentrations: 30 % (minimum irritating dose level), 0.5 mL were applicated per plaster.

B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: 14 days after the 3rd induction
- Exposure period: 6 hours
- Test groups: 10, TS
- Control group: 10, TS
- Site: bilateral caudal flank
- Concentrations: 10 % (maximum non irritating dose level)
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 24 and 48 hours after exposure termination

OTHER: Dose-finding exposure:
5 animals of the control group were treated on the right flank with 5, 10 an 15% (0.5 mL) of the test substance for 6 hours and skin examination followed 24 and 48 hours after exposure termination.
Challenge controls:
Reliability check was performed in April 1991 (report TBD 910161)
Positive control substance(s):
not specified
