In vivo test system
Test animals
- Species:
- guinea pig
- Strain:
- Dunkin-Hartley
- Sex:
- female
- Details on test animals and environmental conditions:
- Housing
The animals were housed in groups of 3 at the maximum in polycarbonate containers, the flooring of which was covered with dust-free cuttings and the top fitted with a stainless steel lid with a feeding device and drinking device of 500 mL.
The temperature and relative humidity of the main test were controlled to remain within target ranges of 19°C to 25°C and 30% to 70%, respectively.
The rate of air exchange was at least ten changes per hour and the lighting was controlled by a time switch to give twelve hours continuous light (07.00 to 19.00) and twelve hours darkness.
Food and drink
The drinking water (tap water from public distribution system) and food (ENVIGO, 2040C) were supplied ad libitum. Microbiological and chemical analyses of the water were carried out once every six months by Bureau Veritas – Eurofins (FRANCE).
Preparation of animals
Fifteen female albino guinea pigs of Dunkin-Hartley strain, supplied by Envigo (Kreuzelweg 53, 5961 NM HORST - The Netherlands). At the beginning of the main test, the animals were 4, 5 or 6 weeks old.
The animals were nulliparous and non-pregnant.
Prior to the test, the animals were kept for a minimum acclimatization period of 5 days, under stabling and nutritional conditions identical to those of the test.
Before the experimentation process, they were identified individually by marking with picric acid and by means of a numbered ring on the edge of one ear.
The animals were carefully shorn before each test item application:
- On the inter-scapular zone for the induction phase,
- On the dorso-lumbar zone for the challenge phase.
At least 3 hours before the first reading (challenge phase) they were shorn a second time in this dorso-lumbar zone.
The animals were weighed at the beginning of the test, after the second induction and at the end of the test.
Animal welfare
The standard study plan related to this study has been approved by the registered Ethics Committee No. 76.
The study was performed in accordance with the guidelines regarding the care and use of animals for experimental procedures:
- the European Communities Council Directive 2010/63/EU of 22 September 2010,
- the French Decree No. 2013-118 of 01 February 2013.
The animals were provided with suitable environmental enrichment (Tunnel).
The study was designed and was conducted to cause the minimum of suffering or distress to the animals, according to the guidelines and to our internal animal welfare’s procedure.
At the end of the study, the animals were euthanized by overdose of sodium pentobarbital.

Determination by intradermal injection of the Maximal Non Necrotizing Concentration (MNNC)
This test was conducted for the purpose of defining a MNNC of the test item which, on intradermal injection during the induction phase, does not risk causing too great a lesion (non-necrotizing concentration), should be well-tolerated systemically and should be the highest to cause mild-to-moderate skin irritation.
Two animals received a volume of 0.1 mL of the test item, on both sides of the spine, at the diluted concentration of 2% in olive oil in view to determine the MNNC.
A macroscopic evaluation of the cutaneous reactions was conducted 24 hours after the injections.
Determination by topical application of the Pre-Maximal Non Irritant Concentration
(Pre-MNIC)
This test, which allowed evaluating the irritancy potential of the test item, defined whether an application of sodium lauryl sulfate would be needed during topical induction phase.
The test item was applied on the dorso-lumbar zone of two guinea pigs shorn beforehand, with occlusive dressing for 24 hours, at 4 different concentrations: diluted at 60%, 30%, 20% and 10% in liquid paraffin.
After the removal of the occlusive dressing, the treated areas were rinsed with liquid paraffin.
Residue of yellow orange coloration not preventing the erythema quotation was noted.
A macroscopic evaluation of the cutaneous reactions was conducted 24 hours after removal of the dressing.
Determination by topical application of the Maximal Non Irritant Concentration (MNIC)
This test was carried out for the purpose of determining the MNIC of the test item without risk of an irritant effect during the challenge phase.
Three guinea pigs were treated according to the same treatment as animals from GROUP 1 (control) for the induction phase (i.e. olive oil and liquid paraffin).
During the challenge phase, the animals were treated with the test item placed onto the selected treatment sites and covered with an occlusive dressing for a period of 24 hours at 4 different concentrations: diluted at 30%, 20%, 10% and 5% in liquid paraffin.
After the removal of the occlusive dressing, the treated areas were rinsed with liquid paraffin.
Residue of yellow coloration not preventing the erythema quotation was noted.
In view of these results, the animals were treated at two additional concentrations: diluted at 50%, and 40% in liquid paraffin.
After the removal of the occlusive dressing, the treated areas were rinsed with liquid paraffin.
Residue of orange coloration not preventing the erythema quotation was noted.
A macroscopic evaluation of the cutaneous reactions was conducted 24 and 48 hours after removal of the occlusive dressing. - Challenge controls:

- Preliminary studies
-MNNC determination:
24 hours after the injections, no cutaneous reaction was noted at the tested concentration of 2%.
The first induction of the Group 2 was carried out by intradermal injection at the maximal non necrosing concentration of 2% (Table 1).
-Pre MNIC determination:
24 hours after the removal of the occlusive dressings, discrete erythema was noted in one animal and no cutaneous reaction was noted in the other animal at the tested concentration of 60%.
No cutaneous reaction was noted in the other animals at the tested concentrations of 30%, 20% and 10% (Table 2).
In view of these results, the concentration selected was 60% for the 2ndinduction of the Group 2 and the MNIC determination began at the concentration of 30%.
