Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 406 (Skin Sensitisation)
Version / remarks:
Guninea pig maximisation test
Deviations:
not specified
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Guinea pig maximisation test (GPMT) developed by Kligman and Magnusson to identify contact allergens in humans and animals.
The Open Epicutaneous Test (OET) was developed using the knowledge of the GPMT for testing new chemicals and cosmetics.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of study:
open epicutaneous test
Justification for non-LLNA method:
The Open Epicutaneous Test (OET) is an acceptable method for contact allergens for cosmetic ingredients.

epicutaneous, open
Vehicle:
polyethylene glycol
Concentration / amount:
6%
Day(s)/duration:
24 hours
Adequacy of induction:
highest technically applicable concentration used
Challenge
Route:
epicutaneous, open
Vehicle:
polyethylene glycol
Concentration / amount:
6%
No. of animals per dose:
six to eight
Details on study design:
RANGE FINDING TESTS: Irritation test to determine the minimum irritating concentration and the maximal tolerated dose after a single application by simultaneously applying 4 different concentrations to the left flank of a special animal group.
After 24 hours, the maximal non-irritating concentration was defined as the highest one not inducing macroscopic reactions.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the study, Aurantiol Pure was non sensitising when tested at a concentration of 6%.
Executive summary:

Aurantiol Pure is reported to be non-sensitising to skin when tested using the OET method at a concentration of 6%.
