Viability/mortality: no death occurred during the study.
Clinical signs, local
Control group
Application area around the injection sites was found to show erythema and oedema from day 2 to 7; additionally around 2 of 3 injection sites necroses were observed from day 8 to 20; encrustation from day 19 to 21 and exfoliation from day 21 to 25 (termination of test). In addition staining was observed in the challenge application area from day 23 to 25.
Test group
Application area around one of the injection sites was found to show erythema and oedema from day 2 to 7. Application area around the other 2 injection sites showed oedema and staining from day 2 to 7. For the 3 injection sites necroses were observed from day 8 to 20; encrustation from day 19 to 21 and exfoliation from day 21 to 25. In addition epidermal induction and challenge application area showed staining from day 10 to 25 and 23 to 25 respectively.
On day 9 of test no observation could be performed because the animals were bandaged semi-occlusively.
Clinical signs, systemic
No systemic symptoms were observed in the animals.
Body weights
2 out of 10 control animals, 4 out of 20 test animals and both animals of the intradermal pretest lost weight during the acclimatization period. The body weight gain of the other animals was not affected during the entire study.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: not classified according to the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008)
- Conclusions:
- Test substance was non sensitising in a Guinea pig maximisation test.
- Executive summary:
Method
Guinea pig maximisation test was carried out according to OECD guideline 406. In the pretest, test substance was applied by intradermal route at concentrations of 1, 3 and 5 % and by epidermal route at concentrations of 5, 10, 15 and 25 %. Main study was conducted with 10 females in the control group and 20 females in the test group. Intradermal induction was done at a concentration of 5 % in physiological saline; epidermal induction and epidermal challenge were done with a concentration of 25 % in vaselinum album. Observations were performed 24 and 48 hours after challenge. Formaldehyde was applied as positive control.
Results
Local signs were reported at the injection site in both control and test group, in terms of erythema, oedema and necrosis. Epidermal application resulted in staining of the exposed area. No signs of systemic toxicity were noted. Based on the lack of positive responses after challenge, test substance resulted as non sensitising.
Positive control gave 80 % of positive response 24 and 48 hours after challenge.
