Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not sensitizing
Conclusions:
As none of the patients showed positive reactions, the test material was not considered to be a potent sensitizer in human patients suffering from pigmented contact dermatitis caused by the commercial Brilliant Lake Red R.
Executive summary:

Skin sensitization study was performed in human patients suffering from pigmented contact dermatitis caused by the commercial Brilliant Lake Red R for test substance to detect its contact sensitivity.

 

The patch of test chemical was applied onto the back of each patient for24 hours by usingFinn Chambers® on Scanpor® (Epitest, Ltd. Oy) at a dose of 1% in petrolatum. After removal of patch, skin reactions were assessedaccording to the ICDRG classification for 2 days.

 

Twenty-eight healthy female volunteers, aged 20 and 21, were also tested with the sample as controls. None gave a positive reaction.

 

The negative skin sensitizing effects were observed in all treated patients. Thusthe test chemical was considered to be not sensitizingin human patients suffering from pigmented contact dermatitis caused by the commercial Brilliant Lake Red R.
