Positive control substance(s):
yes
Remarks:

Results and discussion

Positive control results:
The proof of the sensitivity of the Guinea Pig strain was tested in a separate investigation (study no. 898470, Nov. 1993) with 1,4-phenylenediamine as positive control substance. All animals showed signs of sensitisation.
