- Details on study design:
- RANGE FINDING TESTS:
Two guinea pigs were dermally injected with test item concentrations of 5% (right flank) and 3, 1, 0.5 and 0.3% (left flank) in acetone. Dermal reactions were assessed 24 h later and revealed erythema and edema of grade 1 at concentrations of 0.3 - 1% and erythema and edema of grade 2 at 3 and 5%. Thus, 1% was chosen as concentration for the intradermal injection.
In addition, patches with test item concentrations of 25, 15, 10 and 5% were applied to the clipped and shaved flanks of each of four guinea-pigs for 24 h. Skin reactions were assessed immediately after patch removal and 24 and 48 h after patch removal. No signs of irritation were found for any concentration at any observation time. Thus, the 25% concentration was chosen for topical applications.
MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 2 (intradermal and epicutaneous, respectively)
- Exposure period: single injection (intradermal) and 48 h (epicutaneous)
- Test groups:
Intradermal (3 pairs of injections):
Injection 1: 1:1 (v/v) mixture complete Freund's adjuvant (FCA) and bidistilled water
Injection 2: 1% test substance in acetone
Injection 3: 1% test substance in a 1:1 mixture of complete Freund's adjuvant (FCA) and acetone
Epicutaneous: a 2 x 4 cm patch of filter paper was saturated with the test article (25% in acetone) and applied to the clipped and shaved scapula area one week after the injections
- Control group:
Intradermal (3 pairs of injections):
Injection 1: 1:1 (v/v) mixture complete Freund's adjuvant (FCA) and bidistilled water
Injection 2: 100% acetone
Injection 3: a 1% formulation of acetone in a 1:1 mixture of complete Freund's adjuvant (FCA) and acetone
Epicutaneous: a 2 x 4 cm patch of filter paper was soaked with acetone and applied to the clipped and shaved scapula area one week after the injections
- Site: an area of dorsal skin from the scapula region, the three pairs of injection were made at the border of a 4 x 6 cm area in the clipped region
- Frequency of applications: topical induction was performed 1 week after the intradermal induction
- Duration: Days 0 - 6
- Concentrations: intradermal 1%, epicutaneous 25%
B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: 2 weeks after epidermal induction (Day 20)
- Exposure period: 24 h
- Test groups: test substance and vehicle
- Control group: test substance and vehicle
- Site: left flank (test item) and right flank (vehicle)
- Concentrations: 25%
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 48 and 72 h
- Challenge controls:
- The control group is actually a challenge control.
- Positive control substance(s):
- yes
- Remarks:

Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- Challenge with formaldehyde (15% in bidistilled water) induced erythema of grade 1 immediately after patch removal and erythema of grade 1 in 7/10, of grade 2 in 1/10 and of grade 3 in 1/10 rabbits, thus meeting the reliability criteria for the GPMT test.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 1A (indication of significant skin sensitising potential) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- In the guinea pig maximisation test, 1% intradermal and 25% topical induction followed by a topical challenge at 25% induced erythema and/or edema in 10/10 males and 10/10 females after the first reading and in 9/10 males and in 6/10 females after the second reading. Based on the experimental findings, the test item is considered to be sensitising to the skin.
