Materials and methods
Test guideline
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 406 (Skin Sensitisation)
- Version / remarks:
- HST 2844 3-(dimethylamino)propylurea was tested for a possible skin-allergenic potential in male guinea pigs by means of a sensitization test (maximization test according to MAGNUSSON and KLIGMAN)
- GLP compliance:
- yes
- Type of study:
- guinea pig maximisation test
- Justification for non-LLNA method:
- Test Skin Sensitization Study in Guinea Pigs (OECD 406) is availabe.
Magnusson & Kligrnan Maximization was depleyed as per OECD 406 before 1992. This test was conducted in 1986. After 1992 the Murine Local Lymph Node Assay (LLNA) is the first-choice method for in vivo testing.

Any other information on results incl. tables
1 out of 10 animals of the control group showed positive reaction. (10%).
4 out 20 animals in the test group showed positive reaction (20%).
In general the reactions were very weak (mostly light redness) and could be observed at only one animal after 48 hours.
The 10 % solution was well tolerated for the choice of 4 animals without skin irritation and therefore selected.
This concentration is very close to the irritation concentration of 12 %.
Hence redness can be considered as an individual slight irritation and it can be concluded that the test substance is not a sensitizer..
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The results do not show any indication to the specimen having a skinsensitizing effect in guinea pigs.
- Executive summary:
HST 2844 (N-(3-(dimethylamino)-propyl) urea) was tested for a possible skin-allergenic potential in male guinea pigs by means of a sensitization test (maximization test according to MAGNUSSON and KLIGMAN).
Based on the preliminary tests to determine the dosage the following concentrations were determined for the specimen applicatiofis to be used in the study:
Intradermat induction: 0.1%
Topical induction: 12%
Initiation: 10%
Upon initiation no positive reactions in the sense of a contact allergen were observed in the group induced with the specimen.
Consequently, the results do not show any indication to the specimen having a skinsensitizing effect in guinea pigs.
