Details on study design:
RANGE FINDING TESTS:
A range finding study was performed to determine the appropriate dose level of the test substance following intradermal and epicutaneous administrations. The intradermal irritancy of the test substance was investigated in order to find the minimal irritant test substance concentration for the intradermal induction. The epicutaneous irritancy of the test substance was investigated in order to find the minimal irritant test substance concentration for the dermal induction, and the maximum non-irritating test substance concentration for challenge application. For the intradermal administration test item concentrations of 0.6, 1.25, 2.5 or 5% were injected intradermally in two animals each. Slight skin reactions were observed at all test concentrations in all animals after 24 h and 48 h after application.
For the epicutaneous administration test item concentrations of 12.5, 25, 50 and 100% were applied to the clipped skin of two animals. No skin reactions were observed up to the highest concentration tested 24 and 48 h after removal of the patch.

- Exposure period: single injection (intradermal) and 48 h (epicutaneous)
- Test groups:
Intradermal (3 pairs of injections):
Injection 1: a 1:1 mixture FCA/sterile distilled water
Injection 2: test substance in peanut oil
Injection 3: equal amounts of 5% test substance and FCA/sterile water in a 1:1 mixture (v/v)
Epicutaneous: undiluted test substance
- Control group:
Injection 1: a 1:1 mixture FCA/sterile distilled water
Injection 2: peanut oil
Injection 3: equal amounts of peanut oil and FCA in a 1:1 mixture (v/v)
Epicutaneous: ethanol/diethylphthalate (1:1)
- Site: shoulder region (intradermal + epicutaneous)
- Frequency of applications: every 7 days
- Duration: Days 0-7
- Concentrations: intradermal 2.5%, epicutaneous 100%

B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day of challenge: 21
- Exposure period: 24 h
- Test groups: undiluted test substance and ethanol/diethylphthalate (1:1)
- Control group: undiluted test substance and ethanol/diethylphthalate (1:1)
- Site: right anterior flank (test substance) and left anterior flank (ethanol/diethylphthalate (1:1))
- Concentrations: 100%
- Evaluation: 24 and 48 h after patch removal
Challenge controls:
The control group is actually a challenge control.
Positive control substance(s):
yes
Remarks:
hexylcinnamaldehyde, induction: intradermal 10%, epicutaneous 100%, challenge: 100%

Results and discussion

Positive control results:
The positive control substance induced positive reactions (score 2 and 3) in 6/10 animals (60% second reading), thus meeting the reliability criteria for the Guinea Pig Maximisation Test (≥ 30% positive response). The positive control group was not carried out concurrently with this study but is a historical background data group from a study performed during June 1997.

Any other information on results incl. tables

The challenge with undiluted test item revealed slight erythema (score 1) in 11 of 20 animals after 24 h. After 48 h one animal showed slight erythema (score 1).

The challenge with ethanol/diethylphthalate (1:1) revealed slight erythema (score 1) in 3 of 20 animals after 24 h. After 48 h no skin reactions were observed.

A slight or discrete erythema scored with „1" is not considered as a allergic reaction. The slight skin reactions were only seen in the test group. Some of the animals with this erythema showed a similar reaction on the patch area treated with the vehicle. After 48 h all skin reactions, except in one animal, disappeared. Therefore it is assurned, that the observed skin reactions were not caused by the treatment with the test article.

The animals showed normal body weight gain during the study period.

The animals showed no signs of ill health.
