Induction
-intradermal injections
Each guinea pig was clipped at the dorsal level. It received, on both sides of the spinal column, at the specular level, 3 symetrical intradermal injections of 0.1 mL for the following preparations
for group 1:
injection1: mixture 1:1 (v/v) of Freund's Complete Adjuvabt (FCA) and distilled water
inj 2: vehicle (distilled water)
inj 3 : 50 % of ditilled water in a mixture 1/1 (v/v) of FCA and distilled water
for group2:
inj 1: mixture 1:1 (v/v) of FCA and distilled water
inj 2: test material diluted at 0.5% with distilled water
inj 3: test material diluted at 0.5% with a wixture 1:1 (v/v) of FCA and distilled water
- Topical application
After 6 days of rest period, the 15 guinea pigs (group 1 and 2) were clipped at the injection sites. As the test material was a skin irritant, the test area of control and treated animals was not painted with 0.5 mL of 10% Sodium Lauryl Sulfate in petrolatum.
24 hours later, we applied to the rest area, on each of the guinea-pigs from group 2, a piece of filter paper Whatman completely impregnated with 0.5 mL of the preparation diluted at 10 % with distilled water, held in contact with the skin by an occlusive dressing for 48 hours.
The guinea pigs from group 1 received in a similar manner 0.5 mL of distilled water.

Challenge: topical application
after a 12 day rest period (instead of 11 days) the guinea pigs from both groups were clipped one last time at the dorso-lumbar region, the skin surface chosen corresponding to a zone which had not previously been in contact with the tested product.
We applied under an occlusive patch, to the skin of each of the guinea pigs from groups 1 and 2, two pieces of filter impregnated with 0.2 mL of the tested product to its maximal non irritant concentration (MNIC: 1% in distilled water) and to a lower concentration (0.5 % : MNIC /2)
The occlusive patches were held in place for 24 hours the removed.
Approximately 21 hours after patch removal, the challenge test area was cleaned and clipped if necessary.
3 hours later, we observed and noted the cutaneous reaction withan appropriate scale.
24 and 48 hours later, two other observations were performed and recorded.
In case of doubt, a second challenge test can be carried out 10 days later on an untouched skin region, using a new control or the original control group.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified
Conclusions:
According to the 67/548/EEC directive, the test preparation Ref CS81503 should be considered as not sensitizing by contact with the skin.
Executive summary:

Test objective: to determine the skin sensitizing potential of a substance. the induction of the possible sensitizing effect is performed by epicutaneous and intradermal routes: Freund's Compete Adjuvant is used to increase sensitivity.

This study is conduced according to the 406 OECD guidelines in compliance with the Good Laboratory Pratices.

According to the 67/548/EEC directive, the test preparation Ref CS81503 should be considered as not sensitizing by contact with the skin.
