Intradermal injections / 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 applications / 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 dipped, shaved freeof hair and the test area was pre-treated with 10 % Sodium-Lauryl-Sulphate (SLS) in paraffinum perliquidum as no primary irritation had been observed in the pretest. 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 bi-distilled water) and placed over the injection sites of the test animals. The patch was covered with aluminium 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 bidistilled water.
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 (bi-distilled water applied to the right flank) using the same method as for the epidermal application. The dressing were left in place for 24 hours. 21 hours after removing of the dressing the test sites were depilated with an approved depilatory cream. 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 theanimals were dried with a disposable paper towel and returned to their cages.
Approximately 24 and 48 hours after the removal of the dressing the application sites were assessed for erythema and oedema using the numerical scoring system according to Draize. - Challenge controls:
- The most recent test was run from November 15, 1993 to December 28, 1993
- Positive control substance(s):
- yes
- Remarks:
- 4-Aminobenzoic acid ethyl ester in a current reference study
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- The intradermal induction was performed with a dilutlon at 1 % in mineral oil. For the induction period and challenge procedure a 25 % dilution of 4-Aminobenzoic acid ethyl ester in mineral Oil was used. This concentratlon was found in a pretest to be the highest primary not-irritant concentration. The test article at 10 and 5 % in mineral oil was additionally applled In the second challenge to compare with the literature.
From the results described above moderate allergenic potency (grade 3) of the test article 4-Aminobenzoic acid ethyl ester was concluded. The results were interpreted according to the rating of Magnusson and Kligman (1969).

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: sub-category 1B according to the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008)
- Conclusions:
- The substance was found to have a skin sensitising potential.
- Executive summary:
The test was performed according to OECD guideline 406 (1993). To assess the allergenic potential of test item in albino guinea pigs the Maximization-Test of B. Magnusson and A.M. Kligman (1969) was used. Ten males were used as control group and 20 males were used as test group.
In the study it was found that 70 and 60% of the animals gave a positive response at the 24 and 48 hour time points respectively following challenge with the highest non-irritating concentration of 25 % test item.
