- > RANGE FINDING TESTS:
The dose levels for the main study were determined in a range finding study during which one or two guinea pigs were used and up to two dose levels were tested on each group of animals.
> MAIN STUDY
INDUCTION - TEST ANIMALS
The hair was removed from an area of ca. 40 mm x 60 mm on the shoulder region of each animal with veterinary clippers and a row of three injections (0.1 mL each) was made on each side of the mid-line. The injections were:
i) Freund's Complete Adjuvant plus arachis oil B.P. in the ratio of 1:1
ii) a 25% (w/v) dilution of test material in arachis oil B.P.
iii) a 25% (w/v) dilution of test material in a 1:1 preparation of Freund's Complete Adjuvant plus arachis oil B.P.
One week later, the same area on the shoulder region used previously for intradermal injections was clipped again and treated with a topical application of the undiluted test material. The undiluted test material (0.2 - 0.3 mL) was applied on filter paper (ca. 40 mm x 20 mm) which was held in place by a strip of surgical adhesive tape and covered with an overlapping length of aluminium foil. the patch and foil were further secured by a strip of elastic adhesive bandage woud in a double layed around the torso of ech animals. this occlusive dressing was held in place for 48 hours.
Erythematous reactions were quantified immediately following removal of the patches.
INDUCTION - CONTROL ANIMALS
Intradermal injections were administered using an identical procedure to that used for the test animals except that the injections were:
i) Freund's Complete Adjuvant plus arachis oil B.P. in the ratio 1:1
ii) arachis oil B.P.
iii) Freund's Complete Adjuvant plus arachis oil B.BP. in the ratio 1:1
The topical applications followed the same procedure as fr the test animals except that nothing was applied to the filter paper.
Erythematous reactions were quantified immediately following removal of the patches.
B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
Two weeks after the topical inductions, an area, ca. 50 - 70 mm x 50 mm on both flanks of each animals, was clipped free of hair with veterinary clippers. 0.1 - 0.2 mL test material formulation (75% w/w in petroleum jelly B.P.) was applied to the shorn right flank of each animal on a 20 mm x 20 mm square of filter paper which was held in place with surgical tape. The vehicle alone was similarly applied to the left shorn flank. The patches were occluded with an overlapping length of aluminium foil and secured with a strip of elastic adhesive bandage.
After 24 hours the dressing wsa removed. After a further 24 and 48 hours any erythematous reactions were quantified. - Positive control results:
- The positive control substance produced a 95% (19/20) sensitisation rate and was classified as an extreme sensitiser to guinea pig skin.

- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the study the test material was found not to be a skin sensitiser.
- Executive summary:
The potential of the test material to cause dermal sensitisation was investigated in a study which was conducted under GLP conditions and in accordance with the standardised guideline OECD 406 following the Magnusson & Kligman Maximisation Test methods.
During the study, 20 animals received 0.1 mL intradermal doses of test material (25% w/v). One week later, undiluted test material was applied to the same area of skin under occlusion. Two weeks after topical induction a quantity of test material (75% w/w) was applied to the same area of skin under occlusion. After 24 hours, the dressings were removed and skin reachtions recorded for a further 48 hours. the same procedures were followed for the 10 control animals but they did not receive treatment with the test material.
Under the conditions of the study bodyweight gains of guinea pigs in the test group, between day 0 and day 24, were comparable to those obeserved in the control group animals over the same period. No adverse skin reactions were noted at the test material or vehicle control sites of any test or control group animals during the observation period.
The test material therefore produced a 0% (0/20) sensitisation rate.
The substance does not fulfil the classification criteria for skin sensitisation according to European Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
Reference
Preliminary study
Maximum concentration not causing irritating effects in preliminary test: 75 % Signs of irritation during induction: No adverse skin reactions were noted in the control group.Slight skin reactions in 14/20 of the test animals and well-defined skin reactions in 4/20 of the test animals was observed after topical induction. Evidence of sensitisation of each challenge concentration: Number of animals showing evidence of sensitisation at each challenge concentration: 0/20 Other observations: Bodyweight gains of animals in the test group, between Day 0 and Day 24, were comparable to those in the control group.
