Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 406 (Skin Sensitisation)
GLP compliance:
yes
Type of study:
guinea pig maximisation test
Justification for non-LLNA method:
The guinea pig maximisation test was performed in accordance to the OECD guideline 406 and can be considered as a validated and reliable testing method for skin sensitization including a high statistical sample size and the challenge phase.

Details on study design:
RANGE FINDING TESTS:
Test substance was applied epicutaneously to the flank 2 times for 24 hours under occlusive dressing in a 96 hour period , readings were performed at 24 and 48 hours after beginning of the application (number of test animals: 3 resp. 4 per concentration). The minimum irritant concentration was found to be a 50 % aqueous test substance preparation and the maximum non-irritant concentration a 25 % aqueous test substance preparation .
Applicability : it was possible to inject a 5 % test substance preparation in aqua dest . resp. in Freund's adjuvant/ aqua dest . (1 : 1) with a syringe .
