(SI) = ≥ 3 TREATMENT/VEHICLE PREPARATION AND ADMINISTRATION:- Treatment preparation: Dosing solutions were prepared daily, immediately prior to dosing. The preparation were prepared according to sponsor's protocol in order to gain 2.8%, 1.5% and 0.5%concentrations:1: 2-Methyl-1,4-Benzenediamine Sulphate (Haarbraun)2: 2.5 g of (1) adjusted to 15 mL NaOH ad 50 mL H2O bidest3: 15 mL of (2) + 5 mL Acetone4: 3 mL of (3) + 1 mL Olive oil = 2.8% test concentration5: 5.35 mL of (3) + 4.65 mL H2O/Acetone (4:1)6: 3 mL of (5) + 1 mL Olive Oil = 1.5% test concentration7: 1.8 mL of (3) + 8.65 mL H2O/Acetone (4:1)8: 3 mL of (7) + 1 mL Olive oil = -0.5% test concentration - Vehicle preparation: The vehicle AOO (4:1 (v/v) Acetone/Olive oil) was modified to gain AAOO:Acetone/Aqua (1:1 v/v) = AAAA/Olive Oil (4:1 v/v) = AAOOAdministration of the test preparations: Animals received 25 µL vehicle, positive control or test substance once daily over three consecutive days on the dorsal surface of each ear 0 OBSERVATIONS: Weight assessment: The animals were weighed prior to first application and at the end of the test period.Clinical observation: Prior to the first application all animals were observed for special clinical signs or reactions to treatment.- Evaluation of cell proliferation: On Day 5, 250 µL of [3H]-methyl thymidine containing 20.6 µCi of [3H] methyl thymidine was injected intravenously to each experimental mouse Approx. 5 h later, all mice were sacrificed. The draining auricular lymph nodes were excised, pooled for each animal separately and collected in PBS. A single cell suspension of pooled lymph nodes was prepared by gentle mechanical disaggregation through polyamide gauze of 200 mesh size. The gauze was then washed with Phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and cells were pelleted in a centrifuge. The supernatant was discarded and pallets were resuspended in PBS. This washing procedure was repeated twice. After the final wash pallet was suspended in approx. 3 mL of 5% TCA (trichloroacetic acid) and transferred in to scintillation vials. The [3H]-methyl thymidine incorporation was measured in a β-counter and expressed as the number of DPM (disintegration per minute)

- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- 2-Methyl-1,4-Benzenediamine Sulphate (Haarbraun) in acetone/aqua/olive oil ) was considered as sensitizer in Local Lymph Node Assay (LLNA).
- Executive summary:
The skin sensitization potential of 2-Methyl-1,4-Benzenediamine Sulphate (Haarbraun) was determined following OECD Guideline 429 (Skin Sensitisation: Local Lymph Node Assay).
A total of 5 mice per test group, age 8-12 wk, weighing 16-20 g from source: Harlan Winkelmann GmbH, D-33178 Borchen were kept in groups in Macrolon- cages on Altromin saw fiber bedding and were barrier maintained (semi-barrier) under standard laboratory conditions (temperature: 22 ±3°C; relative humidity: 55 ±10%; Air Changes: 10 per hour; light/dark cycle: 12h light / 12 h dark cycle). The feed used was Altromin 1324 maintenance diet for rats and mice, totally- pathogen- free- TPF, ad libitum.
The test substance (Haarbraun) was prepared at three different test concentrations (i.e. 0.5, 1.5 and 2.8 mg/L) in the vehicle Acetone/Aqua/Olive oil (AAOO). The vehicle group received AAOO. Positive control animals received 1% P-Phenylenediamine in AAOO. The animals received 25 µL of appropriate formulations vehicle on dorsal surface of each ear for three consecutive days. 5 d after first topical application 250 µL of 20.6 µCi [3H] methyl thymidine (diluted to a working concentration of 80µCi/mL) was injected intravenously to each experimental mouse. Approx. 5 h later, the animals were sacrificed and the draining auricular lymph nodes were excised, pooled for each animal and collected in Phosphate buffered saline (PBS). A single cell suspension of lymph node cells for each animal was prepared by gentle mechanical disaggregation. The cell suspension was then centrifuged to pellets, supernatant was discarded and cells were resuspended in PBS. This washing procedure was repeated twice.
After final wash the pellets were resuspended in 3 mL of 5% Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) at approx 4°C, left over night for precipitation of macromolecules, centrifuged, resuspended in 1 mL of 5% TCA and transferred into the scintillation vials. [3H]-methyl thymidine incorporation was measured in a β-counter and expressed as number of disintegration per minute (DPM).The positive control (1% P-Phenylenediamine) induced a 5.3-fold increase in isotope incorporation in the draining auricular lymph nodes relative to the vehicle. The mean stimulation index was above 3 i.e. 5.3.
Treatment of mice with all the three concentrations of test substance produced significant increase in thymidine incorporation in the auricular lymph nodes in comparison to vehicle control.. The stimulation indices of the 2.8%, 1.5% and 0.5% 2-Methyl-1,4-Benzenediamine Sulphate (Haarbraun) treatments were 19.4, 10.4 and 4.4 fold respectively.
Thus the test substance, 2-Methyl-1,4-Benzenediamine Sulphate (Haarbraun) in the vehicle Acetone/Aqua/Olive oil (AAOO) was considered as sensitizer in Local Lymph Node Assay (LLNA).
