- RANGE FINDING TESTS:
INTRADERMAL:
Intradermal injections (0.1 ml/site) were made into the clipped flank of two guinea-pigs at concentrations of 5, 3 and 1% of the test article in bi-distilled water.
The resulting dermal reactions were assessed 24 hours later. For intradermal induction application a 5% test article dilution was selected.
EPIDERMAL:
Both flanks of each of 4 guinea pigs were clipped and shaved just prior to the application. Thereafter 4 patches of filter paper (2 x 2 cm) were saturated with the test article at A = 25% (this concentration used was found to be the most qualifled to assure an optimum technical application procedure), B = 15%, C = 10% and D = 5% of the test article in vaselinum album and applied to the clipped and shaved flanks. The patches were covered by a strip of aluminum foil and firmly secured by elastic plaster wrapped around the trunk and covered with impervious adhesive tape. This procedure ensured the intensive contact of the test article. The dressings were removed alter an exposure period of 24 hours.
21.5 hours after removing of the dressing the application site was depilated with an approved depilatory cream (VEET Cream, Reckitt & Colman AG, CH-4123 Allschwil) to clean the application site from staining produced by the test article, so that possible erythema reactions were clearly visible at that time.
The depilatory was placed on the patch sites and surrounding areas, and left on for 3-5 minutes. It was then thoroughly washed off with a stream of warm, runn-ing water. The animals were then dried with a disposable towel, and returned to their cages. The reaction sites were assessed 24 and 48 hours after removal of the bandage for erythema and oedema on a numerical basis according to Draize.
For the epidermal induction the test article at 25% in vaselinum album was selected.
For the challenge procedure the test article at 5% in vaselinum album was selected.
MAIN STUDY
INDUCTION
INTRADERMALINDUCTION - PERFORMED ON TEST DAY 1
An area of dorsal skin from the scapular region (approximately 6 x 8 cm) was clipped free of hair. Three pairs of intradermal injections (0.1 ml/site) were made at the border of a 4 x 6 cm area in the clipped region as follows:
Test Group:
1) 1:1 (v/v) mixture of Freund's Complete Adjuvant and physiological saline.
2) The test article, diluted to 5% with bi-distilled water.
3) The test article diluted to 5% by emulsion in a 1:1 (v/v) mixture of Freund's Complete Adjuvant and physiological saline.
Control Group:
1) 1:1 (v/v) mixture of Freund's Complete Adjuvant and physiological saline.
2) Bi-distilled water.
3) 1:1 (w/w) mixture of bi-distilled water in a 1:1 (v/v) mixture of Freund's Complete Adjuvant and physiological saline
EPIDERMAL INDUCTION - PERFORMED ON TEST DAY 8
On test day 7 and approximately 24 hours prior to the epidermal application the scapular area (approximately 6 x 8 cm) was clipped, shaved free of hair and the test area was pretreated with 10 % Sodium-Lauryl-Sulfate (SLS) in paraffinum perliquidum. The SLS was massaged into the skin with a glass rod without bandaging. This 10% concentration of SLS enhances sensitization by provoking a mild inflammatory reaction.
On test day 8, a 2 x 4 cm patch of filter paper was saturated with the test article (25% in vaselinum album) and placed over the injection sites of the test animals. The patch was covered with aluminum foil and firmly secured by an elastic plaster wrapped around the trunk of the animal and secured with impervious adhesive tape. The dressings were left in place for approximately 48 hours. The epidermal application procedure described ensured intensive contact of the test article.
The guinea-pigs of the control group were treated as described above with vaselinum album only.
Reaction sites were assessed for erythema and oedema 24 and 48 hours after removal of the dressing, using the numerical grading system according to Draize.
CHALLENGE - PERFORMED ON TEST DAY 22
The test and control guinea-pigs were challenged two weeks after the epidermal induction application. The test and control guinea-pigs were treated in the same way.
Hair was clipped and shaved from a 5 x 5 cm area on the left and right flank of each guinea-pig just prior to the application. Two patches (2 x 2 cm) of filter paper were saturated with the highest non-irritating concentration of 25% (left flank) and the vehicle only (vaselinum album, applied to the right flank) using the same method as for the epidermal application. The dressing were left in place for 24 hours.
22 hours after removing of the dressing the test sites were depilated with an approved depilatory cream (VEET Cream, Reckitt & Colman AG, CH-4123 Allschwil). The cream was placed on the patch sites for 3-5 minutes and then washed off with a stream of warm running water. When the application sites were clean and any stains from the test article removed the animals were dried with a disposable paper towel and returned to their cages.
READING OF CHALLENGE REACTIONS
The challenge site was evaluated 24 and 48 hours after the removal of the patch using the numerical scoring system according to Draize. The readings were made under artificial fluorescent light (daylight spectrum).
OBSERVATIONS
In addition to the sensitizing reactions the following observations and data were recorded during the test and observation period:
Viability/Mortality daily during the observation period
Clinical Signs (local/systemic) daily during the observation period
Skin reactions at the times specified during the induction and challenge periods.
Body Weights at the beginning of the acclimatization period, at day one and at the termination of the test - Positive control substance(s):
- yes
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- 50% of the animals were positive after treatment with a nonirritant test substance concentration of 25%

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 1B (indication of skin sensitising potential) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The test article applied at a concentration of 5% in vaselinum album is considered to be a sensitizer when used under the described test conditions.
- Executive summary:
In order to assess the cutaneous allergenic potential of the test substance, the Maximization-Test in accordance with OECD Guideline No. 406 and the Directive 96154/EEC, B.6 was carried out in 30 (20 test and 10 control) male guinea pigs.
In this study 13 and 14 of the animals of the test group were observed with positive skin reactions after treatment with a non-irritant test substance concentration of 5% in vaselinum album after 24 and 48 hours, respectively. No skin reactions were observed in the control group. Therefore the test substance at concentration of 5% in vaselinum album is considered to be a sensitizer when described under the test conditions.
