TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Charles River Company distributed by Anlab s.r.o. Praha
- Weight at study initiation: 390-472 g
- Housing: Guinea pigs were housed in separate plastic cages type T4.
- Diet : Experimental animals were fed with a standard granulated feed mixture with a composition which provided full biological and nutritional diet for experimental animals. The mixture contains oats, barley, soy flour extracted, protein, wheat bran, sodium chloride etc.
- Water: guinea pigs were supplied with safe drinking water, according to CSN 757111 and each animal additionaly received 20 mg of ascorbic acid per day.
- Acclimation period: at least 5 days

Regular cleaning and disinfection of cages was performed to prevent contamination of pathogens according to standard operating
procedure.

Details on study design:
A. INDUCTION: INTRADERMAL INJECTION
Day 0- treated group:
Three paires of intradermal injections of 0,1 ml volume were applied to the shaved area:
injection 1: a 1:1 mixture Freunds Complete Adjuvant (FCA)/water
injection 2: 0,5 % of the test substance in water solution
injection 3: 0,5 % of the test substance in water solution formulated in a 1:1 mixture FCA/water
Day 0- control group:
Three paires of intradermal injections of 0,1 ml volume were applied to the shaved area.
injection 1: a 1:1 mixture FCA/water
injection 2: water for injection
injection 3: a 50 % w/v formulation of the vehicle in a 1:1 mixture (v/v) FCA/water

INDUCTION: TOPICAL APPLICATION
Day 7- treated group:
Tested area was again shaved. On the identical site of intradermal injection was applied a filter paper (2x4cm)
which was loaded with 10% of tested substance in white vaseline and held in contact by an occlusive dressing for 48 hours.
The gauze pad was kept in contact with the skin by an adhesive hypoallergenic patch under an occlusive aluminum foil sheet of 5x5 cm.

Day 7- control group:
Tested area was again shaved. White vaseline was applied to an identical area of intradermal injection on filter
paper (2x4 cm) in occlusive dressing for 48 hours. The gauze pad was kept in contact with the skin by an adhesive hypoalle
rgenic patch under an occlusive aluminum foil sheet of 5x5 cm.

B. CHALLENGE: TOPICAL APPLICATION
Day 21- treated and control group:
On the right side of the animals was applied a filter paper (2x2 cm) impregnated with 0.5% solution of the tested substan ce in water for injections, occlusive dressing covered a period of 24hrs.
After 1,24,48 and 72 hours was removed the patch and the challenge area was cleaned with water and was carried out cl inical trials, focusing on the intensity of erythema and edema.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
No positive skin reaction was observed in the experiment.
Executive summary:
Skin was exposed to maximal concentration of the tested substance.
The number of sensitized animals determine the potency of contact allergens. No positive skin reaction was observed in the first or in repeated experiments and it can be concluded that the tested substance is not an allergen
There were no differences in growth and development of animals between experimental and control group. The tested substance is not an allergen.
