MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
The induction was a two-stage operation. First, intradermal adjuvant injections and epidermal closed patch exposure to the test compound in the neck region; second, closed patch exposure over the injection sites one week later.

- First Induction:
0.1 ml of a freshly prepared adjuvant saline mixture (1:1) was injected intracutaneously at 4 sites into the animals neck skin. TK 11638/1 was incorporated in vaseline and applied on a filterpaper patch over the adjuvant injection sites (patch 2x4 cm; occluded administration for 24 hours).
Dose of application: approx. 0.4 g of 30 % TK 11638/1 in vaseiine

- Second Induction:
One week later TK 11638/1 was again incorporated in vaseline and applied on the adjuvant injection sites of the first week. The filterpaper patches were administered occlusively for 48 hours.
Dose of application: approx. 0.4 g paste of 30 % TK 11638/1 in vaseline


B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
Two weeks after the epidermal induction application the animals were tested on the flank with TK 11638/1 in vaseline and the vehicle alone (patch 2 x 2 cm; occluded administration for 24 hours).
Dose of application: approx. 0.2 g paste of 10% TK 11638/1 in vaseline. The concentration of the test compound for the induction and challenge periods were determined on separate animals. A second challenge of 3% TK 11638/1 was later performed.


- Control group:
A control group was treated with adjuvant and the vehicle during the induction period. During the challenge period the group was treated with the vehicle as well as with the test compound (at least 10 animals) to control the maximal subirritant concentration of the test compound in adjuvant treated animals.
Challenge controls:
A control group was treated with adjuvant and the vehicle during the induction period. During the challenge period the group was treated with the vehicle as well as with the test compound (at least 10 animals) to control the maximal subirritant concentration of the test compound in adjuvant treated animals.
Positive control substance(s):
no

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
55% of the animals were sensitized by TK 11638/1 under the experimental conditions employed.
According to the maximization grading TK 11638/1 showed a moderate grade of skin-sensitizing (contact allergenic) potential in albino guinea pigs.
Executive summary:

In a dermal sensitisation study according to OECD 406, 10 week old male and female Pirbright White Guinea Pigs were exposed to TK 11638/1 in a maximisation test. The test substance was found to be sensitising according to 67/548/EEC and should therefore be classified as R43 - May cause sensitisation by skin contact.
