MAIN STUDY
ANIMAL ASSIGNMENT AND TREATMENT
- Name of test method: Local Lymph Node Assay
- Criteria used to consider a positive response: DPM values are presented for each animal and for each dose group. A Stimulation Index (SI) is calculated for each group. The SI is the ratio of the DPM/group compared to DPM/vehicle control group. If the results indicate a SI ≥ 3, the test substance may be regarded as a skin sensitizer, based on the test guideline and recommendations done by ICCVAM.
TREATMENT PREPARATION AND ADMINISTRATION:
Test substance preparation: The test substance formulations (w/w) were prepared within 4 hours prior
to each treatment. No adjustment was made for specific gravity of the vehicle. Homogeneity was obtained to visually acceptable levels.
Rationale for vehicle: The vehicle was selected based on trial formulations performed at NOTOX and on test substance data supplied by the sponsor.
Induction - Days 1, 2 and 3; Excision of nodes - Day 6; Tissue processing for radioacitivity - Day 6; Radioactivity measurements - Day 7; Performed according to test guidelines.
Observations:
Mortality/Viability: Twice daily.
Body weights: On Day 1 (pre-dose) and Day 6 (prior to necropsy).
Clinical signs: Once daily on Days 1-6 (on Days 1-3 between 3 and 4 hours after dosing).
Irritation: Once daily on Days 1-6 (on Days 1 - 3 immediately after dosing) by numerical scoring according to the testguideline. Furthermore, a description of all other (local) effects was recorded. - Positive control substance(s):
- hexyl cinnamic aldehyde (CAS No 101-86-0)
- Statistics:
- Not performed.
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- The six-month reliability check with Alpha-hexylcinnamicaldehyde indicates that the Local Lymph Node Assay as performed at NOTOX is an appropriate and reliable model for testing of contact hypersensitivity.

Any other information on results incl. tables
Results Pre-screen test:
At both 25% and 50% test substance concentrations no signs of systemic toxicity were noted and no severe irritation was observed. Variations in ear thickness during the observation period were less than 25% from Day 1 pre-dose values. Test substance remnants were present on the dorsal surface of the ears of all animals on Days 1-3, but did not hamper scoring of erythema. Based on these results, the highest test substance concentration selected for the main study was a 50% concentration.
Other results - main study:
No irritation of the ears was observed in any of the animals examined. Test substance remnants were present on the dorsal surface of the ears of animals at 10%, 25% and 50% on Day 1 and/or Days 2-3, but did not hamper scoring of erythema.
All auricular lymph nodes of the animals treated with the test substance appeared smaller in size when compared with the nodes of the control group. No macroscopic abnormalities of the surrounding area were noted in any of the animals.
No mortality occurred and no clinical signs of systemic toxicity were observed in the animals of the main study. Body weights and body weight gain of experimental animals remained in the same range as controls over the study period. The body weight loss noted for two control animals, two animals at 25% and one animal at 50% was considered not toxicologically significant since the changes were slight in nature and not concentration-related.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: the substance does not need to be classified for skin sensitisation according to GHS and CLP
- Conclusions:
- In an LLNA skin sensitisation study performed according to OECD/EC test guidelines, CAT was found not to be a skin sensitizer, as the SI measured was not ≥3 when tested up to 50% w/w.
- Executive summary:
In the mouse (local lymph node assay) contact hypersensitivity to CAT was assessed by open application of the substance (in concentrations 0, 10, 25 and 50% w/w in propylene glycol) on three sequential days to the outer ear of mice (5/ dose). On day 6, mice were injected with 3H-methyl thymidine. After 5 hours, draining lymph nodes of the ear were collected and tested for radioactivity. The SI was calculated by the ratio of the DPM/group compared to DPM/vehicle control group. No irritation of the ears was observed in any of the animals examined. The SI values calculated for the substance concentrations 10, 25 and 50% were 1.9, 1.7 and 1.8 respectively. Since the test substance did not elicit an SI ≥ 3 when tested up to 50%, CAT was considered not to be a skin sensitizer.
