Study design: in vivo (LLNA)

Vehicle:
acetone/olive oil (4:1 v/v)
Concentration:
5, 10, and 15 % (w/v).
No. of animals per dose:
4
Details on study design:
To determine the highest non-irritant and technically applicable test item concentration, a non-GLP pretest was performed in two mice with concentrations of 2.5, 5, 10, and 15 % (w/v) (pretest excluded from Statement of Compliance). The data showed that the highest test item concentration, which could be technically used, was a 15 % suspension in acetone:olive oil, 4:1 (w/v). Also in other vehicles tested (DMSO, DMF), a higher concentration could not be suspended.
Positive control substance(s):
hexyl cinnamic aldehyde (CAS No 101-86-0)

Any other information on results incl. tables

No deaths occurred during the study period.

No symptoms of local toxicity at the ears of the animals and no systemic findings were observed during the study period. Reddening of the ears could not be determined since the ears were dyed red by the test item. However, no other signs of local irritation such as swelling of the ears could be observed.

The body weight of the animals, recorded prior to the 1st application and prior to necropsy, was within the range commonly recorded for animals of this strain and age.
