- RANGE FINDING TESTS:
Prior to the start of the main study, the intradermal and epidermal irritancy of the test substance was investigated to select suitable concentrations for the induction and challenge phase of the main study. The selection was based on the absence of toxicity and on the following criteria for each route and/or study phase:
Induction (intradermal and epidermal): The highest possible concentration that produced moderate irritation (the intradermal reactions may include slight necrosis (< 3 mm in diameter)).
Challenge: The maximum non-irritant concentration.
A series of test substance concentrations were tested. The first and subsequent concentrations were selected from the series: 50%, 20%, 10%, 5%, 2%, 1% and if needed, further lower concentrations using the same steps. The test system and procedures were identical to those used during the main study, unless otherwise specified. The three animals were 5-9 weeks old. The body weights were determined prior to treatment (results not shown).
Intradermal injections:
A series of four test substance concentrations was used; the highest concentration was the maximum concentration that could technically be injected (undiluted). Each of the three animals received two different concentrations in duplicate (0.1 mL/site) in the clipped scapular region. The injection sites were assessed for irritation 24 and 48 hours after treatment. Necrosis observed at all injection sites was considered to be caused by propylene glycol. A 50% solution for the intradermal injection and a 10% solution for the epidermal induction was selected for the in the main study.
Epidermal application:
A series of four test substance concentrations (10, 20, 50 and 100%) was used. All concentrations could technically be applied. Two different concentrations were applied (0.5 mL each) per animal to the clipped flank, using Scatchpak-non-woven patches (2x3 cm) mounted on Micropore tape, which were held in place with Coban elastic bandage (semi-occlusive covering). The animals receiving intradermal injections were treated with the lowest concentrations (5 and 10%) and two further animals with the highest concentrations (20 and 50%). After 24 h, the dressing was removed and the skin cleaned of residual test substance. The treated skin areas were assessed for irritation 24 and 48 h after exposure. Severe erythema with necrosis and slight edema was noted at the sites treated with 50% and 20% solutions. Very slight erythema was observed at the sites treated with 10% and non skin reactions were noted at sites treated with a 5% solution. The 5% solution was selected for the challenge phase in the main study.
MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 2, intradermal and epicutaneous
- Exposure period: single injection (epidermal) and 48 h (epicutaneous)
- Test groups:
Intradermal, Day 1 (3 pairs of injections, 0.1 mL/site):
Injection 1: a 1:1 mixture (w/w) Freunds Complete Adjuvant (FCA)/water for injection
Injection 2: 50% test substance
Injection 3: separate injections of 0.05 mL each of 50% test substance and FCA (a 1:1 mixture of test substance and FCA was technically not possible; the mixture was divided in separate layers after preparation and cound not be used for injection).
48 h after intradermal injection (Day 3), the degree of erythema and edema was evaluated.
Epicutaneous, Day 8:
0.5 mL 10% test substance was applied to a clipped skin area. The semi-occlusive dressing was kept in place for 48 h. The degree of erythema and edema was evaluated directly after cleaning the skin area with water (Day 10).
- Control group:
Intradermal, day 1 (3 pairs of injections, 0.1 mL/site):
Injection 1: a 1:1 mixture (w/w) FCA/water
Injection 2: propylene glycol
Injection 3: propylene glycol (w/v) in a 1:1 mixture (w/w) FCA (final concentration is 50% propylene glycol)
Epicutaneous, Day 8: 0.5 mL propylene glycol
- Site: the shoulder region
- Frequency of applications: once (intradermal on Day 1 and epicutaneous on Day 8)
- Duration: Day 1 (intradermal), Day 8-10 (epicutaneous)
- Concentrations: undiluted (intradermal and epicutaneous)
B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1 (challenge)
- Day(s) of challenge: 21
- Exposure period: 24 h
- Test groups: 0.5 mL test substance
- Control group: 0.5 mL test substance
- Site: approximately 20 mm x 30 mm, on one flank of the animals
- Concentration: 5%
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 24 and 48 h after the challenge ended - Positive control substance(s):
- yes
- Remarks:
- alpha-hexylcinnamicaldehyde, tech. 85%
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- A reliability check was carried out at regular intervals with alpha-hexylcinnamic aldehyde to check the sensitivity of the test system and the reliability of the experimental methods used by the test laboratory. In an independent study performed in May 1996 (report No. 175038), alpha-hexylcinnamic aldehyde induced sensitisation in 100% (10/10) of the Himalayan guinea pigs challenged with a 50% solution. A 5% solution was used for intradermal induction and undiluted test substance was used for topical induction.

Any other information on results incl. tables
48 h after intradermal induction, very slight to well-defined erythema was noted at all of the sites injected with FCA/water in 10/10 treated and 5/5 control animals. Necrosis was observed at all the water/test substance and FCA/test substance injection sites in 10/10 treated and 5/5 control animals. The authors concluded that the vehicle, propylene glycol, caused the irritation as the same effects were noted in the preliminary study. Following epidermal induction, very slight erythema was observed in 2/10 treated animals. 24 and 48 h after the challenge ended, no sensitisation reactions were observed in the treated animals. No skin irritation was noted in any of the treated and control animals. There was no mortality during the study period, and no signs of toxicity or treatment-related effects on body weight were observed.
