Results and discussion

Positive control results:
Positve control assay with Alpha-hexyl cinnamic aldehyde
Challenge treatment - control and treatment group:
25 % Alpha-hexyl cinnamic aldehyde in polyethylene glycole 400 (day 22)
Treated area: left flank
Time of observation: approx. 24 hours after removal of the patches (day :24).
24 hours after the challenge treatment, 9/10 animals of the treatment group (90 %) showed a positive reaction during the observation period. The corresponding 5 control animals did not show any reaction to treatment.
Time of observation: approx. 48 hours after removal of the patches (day :25).
48 hours after the challenge treatment, all ten animals of the treatment group (l00 %) showed a positive reaction during the observation period. The corresponding 5 control animals did not show any reaction to treatment.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the present OECD 406 study (Magnusson & Kligman), all of ten animals of the treatment group showed a positive skin response after the challenge procedure. Based on the results of this study Dodigen 5356 AS may cause sensitization by skin contact .
Executive summary:

In order to evaluate the test substance for its skin sensitizing property, a test was performed in female guinea pigs according to the method of MAGNUSSON & KLIGMAN (OECD 406). Intradermal induction was performed using 0.04 % test substance in deionized water. Dermal induction treatment was carried out with 5 % test substance in deionized water. Challenge treatment was carried out with 1 % test substance in deionized water. Bodyweight of the treated animals were not impaired. The treated animals showed no clinical signs of intoxication throughout the study.

All animals of the treatment group (10/10) were positive in this test (100%) whereas all control animals (5/5) were negative.

The validity of the test system is confirmed by the periodically conducted positive control test using Alpha-hexylcinnamaldehyde for the maximization test.

Based on the results of this study the test substance may cause sensitization by skin contact
