Animals and Animal Husbandry
Animal housing and care were based on AAALAC standards and to those published in the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals, NIH Publication No. 88-23.
Young adult Hartley Derived Albino guinea pigs were obtained from Harlan Sprague Dawley, Inc., Indianapolis, Indiana, for use in this study. The animals were individually housed in suspended stainless steel cages in an environment-controlled room with a 12/12 hour light/dark cycle. Purina Certified Guinea Pig Chow #5026 and purified water were provided to each animal ad libitum. The guinea pigs were individually identified using cage cards. All animals were acclimated to the laboratory environment for a minimum of five days prior to dosing. Only those animals judged to be healthy were assigned to the study. All range-finding study animals were weighed on the day prior to chamber application; main study animals were weighed on the day prior to the first induction and each subsequent chamber application at challenge and rechallenges.

Range-finding study
Irritation screen: A preliminary irritation screen was performed to determine an appropriate concentration of the test article for the standard sensitization study. The procedure was as follows:
On the day prior to dose administration, the hair was clipped from the dorsal trunk area of two male and two female guinea pigs using a small animal clipper. On the following day, four chambers at four different concentrations (100% as received, and 75%, 50% and 25% w/v OS# 67708C in USP grade mineral oil) were applied to the clipped area of each animal (one chamber for each level of test article). A dose of 0.3 mL of the freshly prepared test substance or test substance mixture was placed on a 25 mm Hilltop chamber. The chambers then were applied to the clipped surface as quickly as possible. The trunk of the animal was wrapped with elastic wrap and secured with tape to prevent removal of the chamber and the animal was returned to its cage.
Approximately six hours after dosing, the elastic wrap, tape and chambers were removed. The test sites were wiped with gauze moistened in USP grade mineral oil to remove test article residue and the animals returned to their cages. Approximately 24 and 48 hours following chamber application the test sites were graded using the following scale:
0 - No reaction
± - Slight patchy erythema
1 - Slight, but confluent or moderate patchy erythema.
2 - Moderate confluent erythema
3 - Severe erythema with or without edema

Induction phase: On the day prior to dose administration (day -1), the hair was then removed from the left side of ten test animals and six DNCB test animals with a small animal clipper. On the following day (day 1) a dose of 0.3 mL of the freshly prepared test solution was placed on a 25 mm Hilltop chamber. The chamber was then applied to the clipped surface of each animal as quickly as possible. Test animals received 100% OS# 67708C. The DNCB test animals received 0.5% w/v DNCB in acetone/ethanol. The trunk of each test animal was then wrapped with elastic wrap to prevent removal of the chamber and the animal returned to its cage. NOTE: The DNCB positive control group was utilized as a common control group for two other Modified Buehler Studies running concurrently for the Sponsor.
Approximately six hours after dosing, the elastic wrap and chamber were removed. The sites for the test animals were wiped with gauze moistened in USP grade mineral oil and the test sites for the DNCB animals were wiped with gauze moistened in distilled water to remove test article residue. The animals were returned to their cages. Test sites were graded for dermal irritation at approximately 24 and 48 hours following chamber application using the scale presented previously. The above induction and grading procedures were repeated for both the test and DNCB test animals on study day 8 and study day 15 so that a total of three consecutive induction exposures were made to the animals. The animals remained untreated after the last induction until the challenge phase of this study.

Challenge phase: On the day prior to challenge dose administration, the hair was clipped from the left side of the ten test and ten naive challenge control animals and the right side of the DNCB test and control animals with a small animal clipper. On day 29, a dose of 0.3 mL of the freshly prepared test substance mixture was placed on a 25 mm Hilltop chamber. The chamber was then applied to the clipped surface of each test and challenge control animal as quickly as possible. Test and challenge control animals received 50% w/v OS# 67708C in USP grade mineral oil. DNCB test and DNCB control animals received two 25 mm Hilltop chambers containing 0.1 % w /v or 0.2% w /v DNCB in acetone/ethanol. The trunk of each animal was then wrapped with elastic wrap in order to prevent removal of the chamber and the animal was returned to its cage.
Approximately six hours after dosing, the elastic wrap and chamber were removed. The OS# 67708C test sites were wiped with gauze moistened in USP grade mineral oil and the DNCB test sites were wiped with gauze moistened in distilled water to remove test article residue. The animals were then returned to their cages.
Approximately 20 hours after chamber removal the exposure sites were depilated using Neet Cream. The depilatory was placed on the test sites and surrounding areas and left on for no more than fifteen minutes. The depilatory was thoroughly removed with a stream of warm, running water. The animals were dried with a towel and returned to their cages. Approximately 24 and 48 hours after chamber removal, the test sites were graded using the scale presented previously.

Rechallenge phase: The rechallenge was performed on study day 37. On the day prior to rechallenge dose administration, the hair was removed from the right side of the ten test and ten naive rechallenge control animals with a small animal clipper. On the following day, a dose of 0.3 mL of the freshly prepared test substance mixture was placed on a 25 mm Hilltop chamber. The chamber was then applied to the clipped surface of each test and rechallenge control animal as quickly as possible. Test and rechallenge control animals received 25% w/v OS# 67708C in USP grade mineral oil. The trunk of each animal was then wrapped with elastic wrap in order to prevent removal of the chamber and the animal returned to its cage.
Approximately six hours after dosing, the elastic wrap and chamber were removed. The OS# 67708C test sites were wiped with gauze moistened in USP grade mineral oil and the animals were returned to their individual cages. Procedures for depilation and grading were the same as those described for challenge.

Second rechallenge phase: The rechallenge was performed on study day 43. On the day prior to rechallenge dose administration, the hair was removed from the right side of the ten test and ten naive rechallenge control animals with a small animal clipper. On the following day, a dose of 0.3 mL of the freshly prepared test substance mixture was placed on a 25 mm Hilltop chamber. The chamber was then applied to the clipped surface as
quickly as possible. Test and rechallenge control animals received 10% w/v OS# 67708C in USP grade mineral oil. The trunk of each animal was then wrapped with elastic wrap in order to prevent removal of the chamber and the animal returned to its cage. Approximately six hours after dosing, the elastic wrap and chamber were removed. The OS# 67708C test sites were wiped with gauze moistened in USP grade mineral oil and the animals were returned to their individual cages. Procedures for depilation and grading were the same as those described for challenge.

OS# 67708C: Following challenge with 50% w/v OS# 67708C in USP grade mineral oil, dermal scores of 1 to 2 were observed in 9/10 test animals at 24 hours. By 48 hours, dermal scores of 1 to 2 with the majority of the test sites exhibiting slight oedema were observed in 8/10 test animals. Dermal scores in 9/10 challenge control animals were 0 to ± at 24 and 48 hours. Group mean dermal scores were noted to be higher in the test animals as compared to the challenge control animals. Following rechallenge with 25% w/v OS# 67708C in USP grade mineral oil, a stronger dermal response was again noted in the test group as compared to the rechallenge control group. Dermal scores of 1 to 2 with the majority of the test sites exhibiting slight to moderate oedema were noted in 10/10 test animals at 24 and 48 hours. Dermal reactions in 10/10 rechallenge control animals were scores of ± to 1 at 24 and 48 hours. Group mean dermal scores were also higher in the test animals as compared to the rechallenge control animals. Following the second rechallenge with 10% w/v OS# 67708C in USP grade mineral oil, dermal scores of 1 to 2 with the majority of the test sites exhibiting slight to moderate oedema were again noted in 8/10 test animals at 24 hours and 7/10 test animals at 48 hours. Dermal scores of 0 to ± were noted in the 10/10 control animals at 24 and 48 hours. The number of animals exhibiting positive sensitzation responses for the test substance at 50%, 25%, and 10% were 8/10, 10/10, and 7/10 respectively, and the mean 24/48 hour Draize scores were 1.1/2.1, 1.6/1.7, and 1.2/1.2, respectively. The mean 24/48 hour Draize scors for the naive controls at 50%, 25%, and 10% were 0.5/0.5, 0.7/0.8, and 0.3/0.5, respectively. Positve control: Challenge with DNCB produced substantially stronger dermal responses in animals previously induced with the positive control demonstrating that the test system could detect potential contact sensitizers.

Executive summary:

The potential of the calcium sulfonate read across substance (CAS 75975-85-8, Total Base Number = 300) to elicit a delayed contact hypersensitivity response was evaluated in guinea pigs. Five male and five female guinea pigs were treated topically with 100% of the test substance, once per week, for three consecutive weeks. Following a two week rest period, the ten test animals and ten previously untreated (naive) challenge control guinea pigs were topically challenged with 50% w/v of the test substance in USP grade mineral oil. Challenge responses in the test animals were compared to those of the challenge controls. Approximately one week after challenge, the ten test animals and ten previously untreated (naive) rechallenge control guinea pigs were topically rechallenged with 25% w/v ofthe test substance in USP grade mineral oil. Rechallenge responses in the test animals were compared to those of the rechallenge controls. Approximately one week after rechallenge, a second rechallenge was performed with 10% w/v ofthe test substance in USP grade mineral oil using the ten test animals and ten new naive second rechallenge control animals in order to confirm previous challenge results. Second rechallenge responses in the test animals were compared to those of the second rechallenge controls.

A dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) positive control group consisting of six DNCB test and three DNCB control guinea pigs was included in this study. The DNCB test animals received 0.5% w/v DNCB in an acetone/ethanol vehicle for induction and 0.1% w/v and 0.2% w/v DNCS in acetone/ethanol for challenge.

Evidence of delayed contact dermal sensitization was observed following the challenge and two rechallenges with the test substance. Slight to moderate dermal reactions (grades ± to 2) were observed for the test animals at both the 24 and 48 hour scoring intervals. No to slight reactions (grades 0 to 1) were observed for the challenge control animals at both the 24 and 48 hour scoring intervals. The 24 and 48 hour group mean scores were higher in test animals than in the challenge control animals. For both rechallenges. the test animals exhibited greater dermal responses to the test article than either of the naive rechallenge control groups.

Challenge with DNCB produced substantially stronger dermal responses in animals previously induced with the positive control demonstrating that the test system could detect potential contact sensitizers.

Based on the results of this study, the calcium sulfonate read across substance (CAS 75975-85-8) is considered a contact sensitizer in guinea pigs.
