- RANGE FINDING TESTS
The objective of this investigation was to identify irritant test article concentrations suitable for the induction phase of the main study. In addition, a suitable non-irritant concentration of the test article, by the topical route of administration, was identified for the challenge application.
The procedure applied for these investigations was as follows:
_Intradermal injections: intradermal injections (0.1 ml/site) were made into the clipped flank of two guinea-pigs at concentrations of 1, 3 and 5 % of the test article in distilled water. The resulting dermal reactions were assessed 24 hours later.
_Epidermal applications: patches of filter paper ( 2 x 2 cm) were saturated with concentrations of 3, 5, 10 and 25 % of the test article in petrolatum oil and applied to the clipped and shaved flanks of each of four guinea-pigs. The patches were covered by a strip of aluminum foil and firmly secured by elastic plaster wound round the trunk and covered with impervious adhesive tape. This procedure ensured the intensive contact of the test article. The dressings were removed after an exposure period of 24 hours and the reaction sites were assessed for erythema and edema on a numerical basis according to the scale described above. Further examination of the sites were performed 24 and 48 hours after removal of the dressings.
MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 2 (one intradermal, one epidermal).
- Exposure period: 1 week after intradermal, 48 hours epidermal application.
- Test groups: 5% intradermal application, 25% epidermal application.
- Control group: intradermal with distilled water, epdermal with petrolatum oil.
- Site: scapular region.
B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1 epidermal application.
- Day(s) of challenge: two weeks after epidermal induction.
- Exposure period: 24 hours.
- Test groups: 10 % test article in petrolatum oil, and vehicle alone.
- Control group: 10 % test article in petrolatum oil, and vehicle alone.
- Site: right and left flank.
- Concentrations: 10 %
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 24 and 48 hours after challenge. - Positive control substance(s):
- yes
- Remarks:
- 1-chloro-2,4-dinitro-benzol (DNCB)
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- For the induction period a 0.5 % dilution of DNCB in ethanol, and for the challenge procedure a 0.3 % dilution of DNCB was used.
Positive erythema reaction after first challenge procedure after 24 hours:
postive: 6 animals; negative: 3 animals
67 % with positive reaction
According to the results observed it is considered that DNCB possess a strong skin sensitizing (contact allergenic) potential in the guinea pig strain used (Dunkin-Hartley albino guinea pigs; DUHA KFM. Kleintierfarm Madoerin AG, CH 4414 Fuellinsdorf / Switzerland).

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: not classified as a skin sensitiser according to the CLP Regulation
- Conclusions:
- Not sensitising.
- Executive summary:
Method
A sensitization test in guinea pigs was performed to determine the contact allergenic potency of the test compound. The test was performed according to the OECD Guideline No. 406.
Results
According to the results a weak allergenic potency of the test article was observed in this test when followed the rating of allergenicity described by Magnusson B. and Kligman A.M. (1969).
Conclusion
According to the CLP Regulation, the results showed that test articol is not a skin sensitizer.
