- - Determination of primary non-irritant concentration:
The hair on the flank of the animals was removed mechanically. 0.5 mL or g of the test substance preparation was applied to a 2 x 2 cm cellulose patch, which was fixed to the left flank (100% test substance on the right flank) and covered occlusively (with film and bandage) for 6 hours. The treated skin area was examined 24 hours after removal of the patches for erythema and oedema according to the technique of DRAIZE.
- Main test for sensitizing properties:
Day 1 to 15
During this test phase, the following procedures were carried out once a week. For the dermal treatments, 0.5 mL of 100 % 3-Chlor-2-methylanilin was applied evenly over a 2 x 2 cm cellulose patch, which was fixed to the front part of the left flank of the 20 animals of the treatment group and then covered with an occlusive polyethylene film and a bandage (Fixomull). The 10 control animals were treated analogously with 0.5 mL semi-liquid paraffin. After an exposure period of 6 hours the occlusive bandage was removed and the flank skin washed. Clinical signs and irritant effects emerging during the sensitization phase were recorded.
Days 16 to 28
No further animal treatment. Animals under observation (weekends excepted).
Day 29
Challenge treatment. This took place under identical conditions for control and treated animals alike. The hair on the previously untreated right flank was removed mechanically. Challenge treatment was performed with 100 % 3-Chlor-2-methylanilin. 0.5 mL of the test substance was applied to a cellulose patch, which was placed on the skin and covered with an occlusive bandage. Exposure was for 6 hours. After removal of the occlusive bandage, any remnants of the substance were carefully washed off with warm water.
Day 30 and 31
Macroscopic examination of the skin.
Day 36
Second challenge treatment. Treatment was performed in the same way as the first challenge treatment. 50% 3-Chlor-2-methylanilin in petrolatum was chosen because of irritations during dermal induction after 3rd treatment.
Day 37 and 38
Macroscopic examination of the skin.
Day 38
Terminal body weight determination. - Positive control substance(s):
- no

There were no recognizable differences in body weight gains between the control and treated animals. No clinical signs of intoxication were observed at any time during the study. Dry-rough skin was observed in two animals of the treatment group after the 2nd application. Well-defined erythema, very slight oedema, fine scales, encrustations as well as dry rough skin occurred sporadically in the treatment group during the sensitization phase after the 3rd application. The animals of the control group showed no signs of irritation.
After first challenge treatment two animals of the treatment group showed well-defined erythema 24 hours after removal of the patches.
Second challenge treatment exhibited very slight to well-defined erythema, dry rough skin and fine scales in three animals of the treatment group 24 and 48 hours after removal of the patches. The animals of the control group showed no signs of irritation after the first and second challenge treatment.
