- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- - Analytical purity: 82.3%
- Purity test date: Not available
- Lot/batch No.: GN-8
- Expiration date of the lot/batch: Not available
- Appearance: Amber coloured, extremely viscous liquid
- Storage: In the dark at room temperature
- Additional information on test material used for the study: It was attempted to purify the substance to a purity of >80% by using an alternative synthetic route, as opposed to the usual commercial route of synthesis which results in a purity of the substance of approximately 40% in water. This alternative synthetic route generated the substance at 82.3% purity, however it also generated an impurity (methanol at 4.0%) which is not present in the commercial substance. Based on the classification and labelling of methanol, it is considered that this additional impurity would not have an influence on any of the endpoints discussed in this dossier other than the acute oral toxicity study. Therefore all studies (including the one covering this endpoint) contained in this dossier (other than the acute oral toxicity study) were conducted on the 82.3% pure substance containing the 4.0% methanol impurity. The acute oral toxicity study has been conducted on the commercially generated substance at a purity of approximately 40% in water.

- RANGE FINDING TESTS:
A range finding study was conducted on two mice. The mice were treated daily for three days with an application of 25µl of the appropriate concentration (25 and 50% v/v dimethyl formamide) on the dorsal surface of each ear. The mice were observed twice daily on days 1 and 2 and once prior to dosing on day 3. The surviving mouse was observed post dose on day 3 and then once a day on days 4, 5 and 6 . Toxicity and excessive signs of irritation were noted . Body weights were recorded on Day 1 and on Day 6 of the surviving mouse prior to termination (from the concentration 50% v/v dimethyl formamide).
MAIN STUDY

- Exposure period: 3 Days
- Test groups: 10, 15 and 25% v/v dimethyl formamide
- Control group: Vehicle of dimethyl formamide undergoing same treatment regime as test group.
- Site: Dorsal are of both ears with an automatic micropipette, spread over the ear with the tip of the pipette.
- Frequency of applications: Daily
- Concentrations: 10, 15 and 25% v/v dimethyl formamide
B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: Day 6
- Exposure period: 5 hours
- Test groups: 10, 15 and 25 % v/v dimethy formamide
- Control group: Control group included in challenge
- Site: Tail vein
- Concentrations: 250µl of phosphate buffered saline containing 3H-methyl thymidine (3HTdR: 80 µCi/ml, specific activity 2.0 Ci/mmol, GE Healthcare UK Ltd) a total of 20µCi per mouse.
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 5 houes after challenge - Positive control substance(s):
- hexyl cinnamic aldehyde (CAS No 101-86-0)
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- The positive control α-Hexylcinnamaldehyde at a concentration of 25% v/v in dimethyl formamide was found to be a sensitiser.

Main test results: dpm and stimulation index
dpm = Disintegrations per minute a = Disintegrations per minute/node obtained by dividing the disintegrations per minute value by 8 (total number of lymph nodes) b = Stimulation Index of 3.0 or greater indicates a positive results na = not applicable
Positive control results: α-Hexylcinnamaldehyde, Tech 85%
Other results:
In the preliminary test, only one mortality was observed in the highest concentration (50% v/v in dimethyl formamide), which was humanely killed before the endo of the study. However, in the main test, no signs of systemic toxicity and no mortality was observed. It was also noted that the bodyweight changes of the test animals were comparable to that of the control animals between days 1 and 6 of the test.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not sensitising
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- In comparison to the the known positive control and stimulation index derived from the controls, the substance was found to be non sensitising.
- Executive summary:
Introduction: A study was performed to assess the skin sensitisation potential of the test material in the CBA/Ca strain mouse following topical application to the dorsal surface of the ear. The method was designed to meet the requirements of the following:
- OECD guideline for the testing of Chemicals No.429 " skin sensitisation: Local Lymph Node Assay" (adopted 24 April 2002)
- Method B42 Skin sensitisation (LOcal Lymph Node Assay) of Commision Directive 2004/73/EC
Methods: Following a preliminary screening test, three groups each of four animals, were treated with 50 µl (25 µl to each ear of the test material as a solution in dimethyl formamide at concentrations of 5%, 10% or 25% v/v. A further group of four animals was treated with dimethyl formamide alone.
Conclusion:
The test material was considered to be a non-sensitiser under the conditions of the test.
