RANGE FINDING TEST
The concentrations of the test substance suitable for use in the main experiment were determined in a pretest. After two 24-hour percutaneous occlusive applications within 96 hours, the minimum irritant concentration was found to be a 50 % test substance preparation in olive oil DAB 10. The maximum non-irritant concentration was found to be a 25 % test substance preparation in olive oil DAB 10 (24 and 48 hours after application) .

Applicability: it was possible to inject a 5 % test substance preparation in olive oil DAB 10 resp. in
Freund's adjuvant / 0.9% aqueous NaCl-solution (1:1) with a syringe. The following concentration for induction and the challenge were selected on the basis of the pretests:

MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
Intradermal induction
- No. of exposures: single exposure with 6 intradermal injections in groups of two per animal
- Test groups: 2 injections each of 0.1 ml Freund's adjuvant without test substance emulsified with 0.9% aqueous NaCl-solution in a ratio of 1 : 1/ 2 injections each of 0.1 ml of the test substance fomulation/ 2 injections each of 0.1 ml Freund's adjuvant emulsified with 0.9% aqueous NaCl-solution (1 : 1) with test substance
- Control groups: same injections but without test substance
- Site: shoulder
- Readings: 24 h after beginning of the application

Percutaneous induction
Percutanous induction was carried out one week after intradermal induction
- No. of exposures: single exposure
- Exposure period: 48 h
- Test groups: test substance in olive oil DAB10 under occlusive dressing
- Control groups: olive oil DAB10 under an occlusive dressing
- Site: shoulder, same area as for intradermal injection
- Readings: 48 h after beginning of the application

B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
Challenge was performed 21 days after intradermal exposure.
- No. of exposures: single exposure
- Exposure period: 24 h
- Test groups: test substance in olive oil DAB10 under an occlusive dressing
- Control groups: olive oil DAB10 under an occlusive dressing
- Site: intact flank of the animals
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 24 h and 48 h after removal of the patch

Challenge controls:

Control groups only received olive oil DAB 10 during the induction phase. At challenge control group 1 was treated analogous to the test group, control group 2 only received olive oil DAB 10.

Positive control substance(s):

yes

Remarks:

alpha-Hexylcinnamaldehyde 85 % (A positive control with a known sensitizer is not included in this study. However, a separate study is performed twice a year in the laboratory.)

Results and discussion

Positive control results:

Control group 1:
1. challenge (50 % test substance in olive oil DAB10): 2/10
2. challenge (50 % test substance in olive oil DAB10): 3/10
Control group 2:
1. challenge (olive oil DAB10): 2/10
2. challenge (50 % test substance in olive oil DAB10): 1/10
test group:
1. challenge (50 % test substance in olive oil DAB10): 13/19
2. challenge (50 % test substance in olive oil DAB10): 14/19

MORTALITIES 2 animals each of control group 1 and 2 died 20, 21, 22 and 24 days after the beginning of the study. Macroscopic examination revealed, that the animals suffered from pneumonia. The deaths were not related to the test substance treatment. BODY WEIGHTS Body weights developed within the expected range.
