Skin sensitisation
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- skin sensitisation: in vivo (non-LLNA)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 20th of November 2019 to 20th of February 2020
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study

Materials and methods
Test guideline
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 406 (Skin Sensitisation)
- Version / remarks:
- Adopted the 17th of July 2003
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Type of study:
- Buehler test
- Justification for non-LLNA method:
- An LLNA study was not performed because the test method is not considered to be suitable for substances that contain silicon.
Buehler test was selected based on that in vitro methods for assessing sensitisation potential are available but cannot yet fully substitute the animal tests. The sensitivity and reliability of the experimental technique is assessed on a regular basis using mercaptobenzothiazole, which is recommended by the OECD 406 and is known to have moderate skin sensitisation properties.

- No.:
- #1
- Route:
- epicutaneous, occlusive
- Vehicle:
- other: acetone
- Concentration / amount:
- 100%
- Day(s)/duration:
- Occlusive dressing kept in contact with the skin for 6 hours.
- Adequacy of challenge:
- highest non-irritant concentration
- No. of animals per dose:
- 20
- Details on study design:
- RANGE FINDING TESTS: 5 animals were used. The adequate concentrations for the induction and challenge was determined by a preliminary test with different concentrations. The test item was applied topically at 5 different concentrations (25%; 50%; 75%; 90% or 100%, each diluted with the vehicle acetone) to the flanks of the animals for 6 hours using occlusive dressings. Based on the gained result of this preliminary test, a concentration of 100% for the dermal induction and 100% for the challenge application respectively was used.
MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 3 exposures
- Exposure period: 3 weeks
- Test groups: Test groups treated with 100% of the test substance.
- Control group: The negative control was a dry gauze patch (since the test item was applied undiluted)
- Site: Flanks
- Frequency of applications: Once a week
- Duration: 6 hours
- Concentrations: 100% test substance
B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: One
- Day(s) of challenge: 14 days after the last induction
- Exposure period: 6 hours
- Test groups: The right flanks of 20 animals were treated with 0.5 mL of 100% test item in acetone.
- Control group: The left flanks of 10 animals were treated with 0.5 mL of acetone only.
- Site: Both flanks
- Concentrations: 100% test item in acetone.
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): At 24 and 48 hours. - Challenge controls:
- A dry patch was applied to an area of approximately 2.5 x 2.5 cm on the left flank at an untreated site (intraspecific control) and was held in contact with the help of an occlusive dressing for 6 hours for the negative control.
- Positive control substance(s):
- yes
- Remarks:
- 2-mercaptobenzothiazole
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- The sensitisation rate after application of the positive control substance 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (25% in vaseline) was 90%, confirming the reliability of the test system.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- In the in vivo skin sensitisation study, conducted according to OECD Test Guideline 406 and in compliance with GLP, the test material was concluded to not be sensitising to skin. Positive and negative controls were included and gave the expected results.
