Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- skin sensitisation: in vivo (non-LLNA)
- Type of information:
- migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

- Remarks:
- Not conducted under GLP. The method used is equivalent to OECD 406, but with reduced animal numbers (10 test, 8 control). Test item is identified as Fenopon AC78; which is Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate. Read-across is based upon a commonality of functional groups, constituents, breakdown products and metabolic pathways. A detailed justification is appended in Section 13.

- RANGE FINDING TESTS:
Intradermal injection: 4 previously untreated guinea pigs (males) weighing approximately 320g were each injected intradermally on the clipped flanks with 0.1 ml aliquots of a range of concentrations of test substance in a suitable solvent. 24 hours later the reactions are examined for size (2 largest diameters) erythema and oedema. The concentration which produces a definite irritation reaction (10 x 10 mm, pale pink, with or without oedema) is selected as the intradermal injection induction concentration.
Topical application (for neck induction and flank challenge): 8mm diameter filter paper (Whatman 3MM patches), in 11mm "Fintest" aluminium patch test cups (Epitest Ltd), are saturated with a range of concentrations of test substance in a suitable solvent and the cups applied to the shaved flanks of 4 previously untreated guinea pigs of the same sex and weighing approximately 450g. The patches are held in place by adhesive plaster (Poroplast) wound around the trunk. 24 hours later the patches are removed, the reaction sites being examined 24 and 48 hours subsequently. The reactions are scored for irritation on a scale from 0 to +++. The concentration giving definite irritation (~+/- ) is selected for shoulder induction. The highest non-irritant concentration is chosen for sensitization challenge.
- Challenge controls:
- At every challenge in the test, 4 previously untreated control animals (male and weighing approximately the same as the test animals) were treated the same as the test animals, but without any induction treatment.
For each animal, an 8 mm diameter filter paper patch in an 11 mm aluminium patch test cup soaked in the test solvent (distilled water and PEG 400) was applied to the shaved flank. The patch was held in place for 24 hours by adhesive plaster wound around the trunk. The treatment sites were examined for evidence of sensitization 24 and 48 hours after removal of the patches. - Positive control substance(s):

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not sensitising
- Conclusions:
- 1 out of 8 guinea pigs sensitised after 4 challenges
The test item is not classified as a skin sensitiser based on the result of this study. - Executive summary:
The Guinea Pig Maximizatin Test (GPMT), performed according to the Magnusson and Kligman method, was used. The animals weighed approximately 320 grams. The GPMT method involves induction in Guinea pigs by intradermal injections of both test substance and Freunds complete adjuvant. The induction process is supplemented seven days later by test substance applied to the shoulder injection sites and occluded by patch. Fourteen days later the animals were challenged by occluded patch on one flank. In this particular study, three subsequent challenges were then performed.
Three additional challenges were performed after the initial challenge. After the first challenge, 1 of 10 animals had a faint/very faint reaction at 24 hours and 2 of 10 animals showed the same reaction at 48 hours. After the second challenge, 2 of 10 animals had a faint/very faint reaction at 24 hours and 1 of 10 possibly showed the same reaction at 48 hours. After the third challenge, no animals showed any reactions. After the fourth challenge, 1 of 8 animals had a faint/very faint reaction at 24 hours with a further 1 of 8 with possible reactions, and 1 of 8 animals showed the same reaction at 48 hours. At this fourth challenge, two test animals died due to neck lesions from the induction procedure. The mortalities were not due to the topical challenge. Interpretation of the results is difficult due to the number of faint/very faint erythema reactions observed following each challenge. Some reactions were also seen in the control animals. Comparing the reactions at 24 hours versus 48 hours and the reproducibility of responses at each challenge, there is some evidence that one (and perhaps two) of the animals may have been weakly sensitized. However, the amount of background irritation in control animals and the weak responses in the test animals point towards this study being inconclusive.
