- guinea pig maximisation test
- Type of information:
- read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Adequacy of study:

- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Justification for type of information:
- The underlying hypothesis for the read-across is that chelates have the same mode of action based on their ability to chelate, remove or add metal cations to body causing perturbation of body’s micronutrients balance.
The source substance is a chelating agent in a target substance. The only difference between the target and the main source substance is presence of magnessium (Mg) cation instead two Na+ cations. As magnessium is an essential micro element required by all forms of life, is considered not to influence the toxicological activity.

- RANGE FINDING TESTS:
The experiment was commenced by the pilot study in which concentrations of test item for the main study were established.
On day before test dorsal skin of animals’ trunk and flanks were shaved with electric razor on area about 4.5 x 6 cm. Only animals without any visible skin irritation or abrading were used for the experiments.
In order to determine concentration for I step of induction – intradermal injections, six intradermal injections were given to frontal part of two guinea pigs in volume of 0.1 mL each: 2 with Freund’s Complete Adjuvant (FCA); 1 with medium and 3 with the appropriate concentrations of test item. The following concentrations of test item were given to guinea pig No 1 – 0.5%, 1%, 2% and to guinea pig No 2 – 0.2%, 0.5% and 1%.
In order to determine concentration for II step of main study (induction – topical application) and concentration for III step of main study (challenge – topical application), the test item in concentrations of 40% and 50% was applied to shaved flanks of two guinea pigs. Two concentrations were tested on each animal. The aqueous solutions of appropriate concentrations of test item were applied in volume 0.5 mL to gauze patches with dimensions 2 x
2 cm which were subsequently laid on skin of flanks. The gauze patches were covered with PCV foil and elastic bandage. The exposure time was 24 hours. After this time the band and gauze patches were removed.
Clinical observations
Clinical observations comprised evaluation of general condition of animals as well as detailed clinical observations. General observations of all animals for mortality and morbidity were conducted twice a day and once a day (on days off). Observations of skin of animals in the pilot study were performed after 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 hours since intradermal injections as well as 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 hours since the end of 24-hour period of exposure following application of test item to skin. Skin reaction for intradermal injections of test item and medium was evaluated by measurement of diameter of formed erythema and other changes on skin were also described. Results of skin reaction to administration of test item were evaluated according to grading scale, on the ground of OECD Guideline No 404, EU Method B.4. and SPR/T/24.
The animals were sacrificed after observation period by peritoneal administration of pentobarbital in dose 200 mg/kg b.w. [15] and transferred to utilization.
Body weight of animals was determined individually for each animal directly before administration of test item (day 0) and on day of termination of experiment – prior to sacrifice of animals.
MAIN STUDY
The main study comprised three parts: double induction and a challenge.
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 2 (on day 0 an intradermal injection and on day 7 a dermal application)
- Exposure period: 48 hours
- Test groups: intradermally: 0.2% aqueous solution of test item with Freund’s Complete Adjuvant (FCA). Due to no skin irritation after aplication of 50% aqueous solution,10% sodium lauryl sulfate in vaseline was applied in the site of intradermal injections on day before II step of experiment in order to create local skin irritation. Epicutan: 50% aqueous solution of test item was applied to skin in the site of intradermal injections.
- Control group: During period of induction a group of control animals was subjected to sham treatment – they were given medium instead of test item. The animals were treated also with 10% sodium lauryl sulfate in vaseline in the site of intradermal injections on day before II step of experiment in order to create local skin irritation.

- Conclusions:
- The test item Cu (II) IDHA caused no sensitization in animals. On the ground of the study Cu (II) IDHA may be included to the agents not causing sensitization of skin of guinea pigs.
- Executive summary:
A study was undertaken to investigate the skin sensitisation potential of Cu (II) IDHA in Dunkin Hartley guinea pigs (OECD 406; Kropidło, 2011, Study Code Al 3/11). A test group consisted of 20 animals and the control group of 10 animals which were sham-exposed in the following. The test item was applied first intradermally (0.2 %) to the animals, and 7 days later via topical application (as a 50 % solution). These two applications were for induction purposes. Then the animals were left for 2 weeks and then challenged with a 50 % solution of the test item. Thereafter the readings were made (after 24, 48, and 72 hours). The test item Cu (II) IDHA caused no sensitization in animals. On the ground of the study Cu (II) IDHA may be included to the agents not causing sensitization of skin of guinea pigs. The recorded body weight losses in animals of both pilot and main study were probably caused by stress connected with preparations of animals for experiment and also with the manner of protection of administered test item or medium as well as observations themselves.
All animals survived period of experiment.

During the experiment no general clinical signs were stated in observed animals. After termination of experiment body weight loss was stated in two animals of treated group.
Pilot study
Clinical signs
The test item concentration of 0.2% causing mild changes on skin was selected for I step of main study. On the ground of obtained results the test item concentration of 50% not causing changes on skin was selected for II step of main study (induction – topical application). Since the test item was a solid form is the maximal concentration which could be given was 50%. For III step (challenge – topical application) the test item concentration of 50% not causing changes on skin was selected.
After termination of pilot study, body weight loss was stated in one animal (2/483).

Because the substance is a skin irritant, the tet area, is not painted with 0.5 ml of 10% natrii lauryl sulfas in vaseline, in order to cerate a local irritation.
Day 8 - treated group
The test area was cleared of hair. A gauze 2x4 cm was fully loaded with vehicle and was applied to the test area and held in contact by an occlusive dressing for 48 h. During at least 14 days, no treatment was applied.
Challenge
Day 22 - treated and control groups
The flank of treated and control animals was cleared of hair. A patch loaded with the substance was applied to one flank of the animals and patch loaded with the vehicle was applied ti the other flank. The patch was held in contact by an occlusivve dressing for 24 h.
Obsrvations performed
Approximately 21 hours after removing the patch, the challenge area was cleaned and shaved. Approximalety 3 hours lated (48 h from the start of the challenge application) the skin reaction was observed and recorded according to the grades. Approximately 48 h after removing of the patch (72 h from the start of the challenge), the second observation was made and recorded.
Individual starting body weight and ending body weight were statistically evaluated by Statgraphics statistical program. To identify homogenity groups the Bartell test was used. In the case of homogenity One-Way Analysis of Variance was applied. - Positive control substance(s):

- Justification for type of information:
- A substantial body of evidence exists that the toxicity profiles of chelates depends mainly on metal ion, its affinity to this metal, and their ability to supply or to sequester it from the body/environment. The source substance has the same chelating agent as in a target substance (MgNa2IDHA). The only difference between the target and the source substance is presence of magnessium (Mg) cation instead Mn2+ cations. As magnessium is an essential micro element required by all forms of life, is considered not to influence the toxicological activity.

- RANGE FINDING TESTS:
The experiment was commenced by the pilot study in which concentrations of test item for the main study were established. On the day before the test, an electric razor was used to shave the dorsal and flank skin of the animals covering the area of about 4.5 x 6 cm. Only animals without any visible skin i rritation or abrading were used in the experiment. In order to prepare appropriate concent rations of the test item, aqua pro injectione was used as a medium.
Concentration determination for stage I of the main study:
In order to determine a proper concent ration for stage I, i.e. induction – intradermal injections, six intradermal injections in a volume of 0.1 mL each were given in the shoulder region of four guinea pigs. The injections were as follows: 2 with Freund’s Complete Adjuvant (FCA), 1 with the medium, and 3 with appropriate concentrations of the test item. Guinea pig no. 1 received the test item at the concentrations of 0.5%, 1%, and 2%, guinea pig no. 2 received the test item at the concentrations of 4%, 6%, and 8%, guinea pig no. 3 received the test item at the concentrations of 10%, 15%, and 20%, and guinea pig no. 4 received the test item at the concentrations of 15%, 17%, and 20%.
Concentration determination for stages II and III of the main study:
In order to determine proper concentrations to be used at stage II of the main study (induction – topical application) and stage III of the main study (challenge – topical application), the test item at the concentrations of 30% and 50% (guinea pig no. 1) and 40% and 50% (guinea pigs no. 2 and 3) was
applied to the shaved flanks of three guinea pigs. Two concentrations were tested on each animal. Aqueous solutions of the test item at the appropriate concentrations in a volume of 0.5 mL each were applied to gauze patches (2 x 2 cm). Then, the patches were laid on the flanks of the animals and covered with PVC foil and an elastic bandage. The exposure time was 24 hours. Following this period of time, the bandage and the gauze patches were removed from the skin
Clinical observations
These observations comprised the evaluation of general condition of the animals and detailed clinical observations of their skin. The general observations of all animals for mortality and morbidity were conducted twice a day or once a day in case of days off. In the pilot study, the detailed observations of the animals’ skin were performed 24, 48, 72, 96, and 120 hours after the intradermal injections and 24, 48, 72, 96, and 120 hours after the end of the 24-hour exposure following the test item application. Skin reactions to intradermal injections (the test item and the medium) were evaluated by measuring the diameter of erythema. All other skin changes were also recorded. Skin reactions to the test item were evaluated according to the grading scale based on the OECD Guideline No. 404, the EU Method B.4., and the Standard Operating Procedure SOP/T/24. After the observation period, the animals were euthanized by intraperitoneal administration of morbital at a dose of 200 mg/kg b.w. [SOP/T/39] and trans ferred to utilization.
Body weights
Body weights of the animals were determined on day 0 and on the day of the experiment termination (before euthanasia)
MAIN STUDY
The main study comprised three parts: double induction and a challenge.
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 2 (on day 0 an intradermal injection and on day 7 a dermal application)
- Exposure period: 48 hours
- Test and control groups: In the I step of main study the animals of treated group were given intradermally 15% aqueous solution of test item with Freund’s Complete Adjuvant (FCA) and 15 % aqueous solution of test item without FCA.
In the II step of main study, 50% aqueous solution of test item was applied to skin in the site of intradermal injections. Due to no skin irritation after aplication of 50% aqueous solution,10% sodium lauryl sulfate in vaseline was applied in the site of intradermal injections on day before II step of experiment in order to create local skin irritation. During period of induction a group of control animals was subjected to sham treatment – they were given medium instead of test item.

- Conclusions:
- The test item Mn (II) IDHA caused no sensitization in animals. On the ground of the study Mn (II) IDHA may be included to the agents not causing sensitization of skin of guinea pigs.
- Executive summary:
A study was undertaken to investigate the skin sensitisation potential of Mn (II) IDHA in Dunkin Hartley guinea pigs (Kropidło, 2013, Study Code Al 9/13, according to OECD 406). The experiment commenced with a pilot study which allowed for the determination of the test item concentrations to be used in the main study. These were as follows: 15% causing mild skin changes at stage I (induction - intradermal injections), 50% causing no skin changes at stage II (induction – topical application), and 50% causing no skin changes at stage III (challenge – topical application). Because the test item was a solid, the maximum concentration of the test item applied to the skin could be 50%. There were 20 animals in the treated group and 10 animals in the control group used in the main study. The main study was comprised of three parts: a two-stage induction phase and a challenge phase. At stage I of the main study, the treated animals were given intradermal injections containing a 15% aqueous solution of the test item with Freund’s Complete Adjuvant (FCA). At stage II of the main study, a 50% aqueous solution of the test item was applied to the skin in the sites of the intradermal injections. Since the 50% aqueous solution did not cause skin irritation, on the day before stage II of the main study 10% sodium lauryl sul fate in vaseline was applied in the sites of the intradermal injections in order to create a local skin irritation.
During the induction period, the control group animals were subjected to sham treatment. In order to challenge sensitization, a 50% aqueous solution of the test item was applied to the right flanks of the treated and the control animals. The medium was applied to the left flanks. Following the challenge, i.e. 24, 48, and 72 hours after the end of the exposure, the treated and the control animals were observed for skin changes. General clinical observations were performed during the main study. Detailed skin observations were conducted 24, 48, and 72 hours after the end of the exposure. Body weights of the animals were determined on day 0 and on the day of the experiment termination (before euthanasia). All animals survived the experiment. After the observation period, the animals were euthanized.
During all readings, the treated animals did not exhibit any allergic skin reactions. In the cont rol group animals, no pathological skin changes were stated. During the experiment, the observed animals did not exhibit any general clinical signs. After the end of the experiment, body weight gain was stated in all animals. Based on the study results, the test item, i.e. Mn (II) IDHA can be classified as an agent causing no sensitization – according to the Magnusson and Kligman classification.
Results of the pilot study
Clinical signs
The test item at the concentration of 15% causing mild skin changes was selected for stage I of the main study.
The results of the pilot study allowed for the determination of the test item concentration of 50% causing no skin changes to be used at stage II of the main study (induction – topical application). Because the test item was a solid, the maximum concentration of the test item applied to the skin could be 50%.
The concentration of 50% causing no skin changes was selected for stage III of the main study (challenge – topical application).
Body weights of the animals
After the termination of the pilot study, insignificant body weight loss was stated in three animals (no. 2/241, 3/134, and 2/228)
Results of the main study
Clinical observations
During the readings which took place 24, 48, and 72 hours after the end of the exposure, the control group animals did not exhibit any pathological changes in the sites of the test item and the medium application. During the readings which took place 24, 48, and 72 hours after the end of the exposure, the treated group animals did not exhibit any pathological changes in the sites of the test item and the medium application. On the grounds of the obtained results, it may be stated that no allergic skin reactions occurred in the treated animals. During the experiment, the control and the treated animals did not reveal any changes in behaviour or general clinical changes.

During the readings, the treated animals did not exhibit any allergic skin reactions.
Taking the study results into consideration, the test item, i.e. Mn (II) IDHA can be classified into the following categories:
- agents causing no sensitization – according to the Magnusson and Kligman classification,
- agents which are beyond categorization – according to the Commission Regulation (EU) No. 286/2011
of March 10, 2011 amending, for the purposes of its adaptation to technical and scientific progress, Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council on classification, labelling, and packaging of substances and mixtures.
Body weight loss stated in three animals was probably caused by stress resulting from the preparation of the animals for the experiment, the way of protecting the test item and/or the medium, and observations.

- Justification for type of information:
- A substantial body of evidence exists that the toxicity profiles of chelates depends mainly on metal ion, its affinity to this metal, and their ability to supply or to sequester it from the body/environment. The source substance has the same chelating agent as in a target substance (MgNa2IDHA). The only difference between the target and the source substance is presence of magnessium (Mg) cation instead Zn2+ cations. As magnessium is an essential micro element required by all forms of life, is considered not to influence the toxicological activity.

- Details on test animals and environmental conditions:
- Species and Strain
The animals used were SPF-bred guinea pigs of the strain Hsd Poc:DH supplied by the Harlan Winkelmann GmbH Laboratory Animal Breeders in 33176 Borchen. A total of 32 male animals were used in the study, including those employed in the range-finding test to determine the challenge concentration. In addition, 5 małe animals were used to determine the induction concentrations.
Appropriate sensitivity of this strain of guinea pig for sensitization tests and appropriate reliability of the experimental technique have been verified [3a, 3b] and are checked at regular intervals. The pertinent records are filed in the Bayer AG Fachbereich Toxikologie archive.
Acclimatization
Following receipt, the animals scheduled for this study were adapted to the maintenance conditions for a period of at least seven days before treatment, and their state of health was monitored.
State of Health
Only healthy animals exhibiting no clinical signs were used for the study. The animals were not vaccinated or treated against infections either before receipt, or during the adaptation or study periods.
Age and Body Weight
The guinea pigs exhibited a mean weight of 321 - 361 grams at the beginning of the study (see page 25). This weight corresponds to an age of 4 -6 weeks.
Animal Accommodation
During the adaptation and study period the animals were conventionally kept in type IV Makrolon® cages [4], in groups of five during the adaptation period and in groups of two or three per cage throughout the study period. The cages were exchanged for ones with clean bedding two times per week.
Low-dust wood shavings supplied by Ssniff Spezialdiaten GmbH, Soest, were used as bedding. The wood shavings were spotchecked for contaminant levels. Records of these test results are filed at BAYER AG. The analytical results provided no evidence for an effect on the study objective.
Animal Rooms
All animals used in this study were kept in the same animal room, one in which guinea pigs from other sensitization studies were also housed. Adequate separation, unambiguous cage markings and suitable organization of the week ensured that animals were not mixed up.
Cleaning. Disinfection
The animal room was swept out with a broom each day, and thoroughly cleaned with water once weekly. The room was disinfected at least once each month with Killavon® (1O grams benzalkonium chloride per 100 grams disinfectant; working dilution 1%). Contamination of the diet and contact with the experimental animals were avoided during this werk. No pest control measures were carried out in the animal rooms. KILLIGERM Roach Traps ®, a cockroach trap which uses no pesticides, was placed in the animal room.
Climatic Conditions
The room climate in the animal room was set as fellows:
Room temperatura:
Relative humidity: lighUdark cycle: Air exchange rate:
22 +/- 3°C (possibly drifting higher at outdoor temperatures above 24°C)
40-60%
Twelve hours; artificial lighting from 6 AM to 6 PM
>= 1O times per hour
Occasional deviations from these standards occurred at times including the period following the cleaning of the animal room. They had no apparent effect in the course of the study.
Diet
The diet consisted of "Altromin®3020 - Maintenance Diet for Guinea Pigs" supplied by Altromin GmbH in Lage, and of tap water. Food and water were provided ad libitum. The nutritive composition of Altromin®3020 is listed in the Annex on page
38. Pellets with a diameter of 3 mm (Altromin® 3022) were fed.
Two 750-ml polycarbonate bottles per cage were used for water during the test period [4, 5]. The tap water met drinking water standards [6]. Records of the analyses to monitor compliance with the drinking water specification are filed at Bayer AG. The available data provided no evidence for an effect on the study objective.
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- Using 2-mercaptobenzothiazole formulated with physiological NaCI, containing 2 % v/v Cremophor EL® the methodological reliability of the maximization test and the sensitivity of the strain was checked on female guinea pigs using concentrations as follows:
For the intradermal induction a 2.5% test substance formulation was used, and for the topical induction a 40% formulation.
After the challenge with a 40% test substance formulation 60% of the test animals exhibited dermal reactions. There was no reddening of the skin to be observed on control group animals.
The sensitivity as well as the reliability of the experimental technique is thus confirmed by this study.
The sensitivity of the used animal strain was also examined by a Buehler patch test performed in male guinea pigs using alpha-Hexylzimtaldehyd formulated in propylene glycol 400 with an epicutaneous induction concentration of 40% and a challenge concentration of 20%. Of the substance-group animals 65% exhibited dermal reactions following challenge with 20% test substance formulation. In the control group none of the animals reacted with skin effects with the 20% test substance formulations.
The sensitivity as well as the reliability of the experimental technique is thus confirmed by this study.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the maximization test and with respect to the evaluation criteria the test substance therefore thus exhibits no skin-sensitization potential.
- Executive summary:
The Guinea Pig Maximization Test (GPMT) was performed on male guinea pigs to determine whether the test substance lminodisuccinat, Na-Salz exhibits skin sensitizing properties.
The study was conducted with the following test substance concentrations:
lntradermal induction:
1%
Topical induction:
25%
Challenge:
20%
For the induction and the challenge treatment the test substance was formulated in demineralized water solution to yield a solution.
The challenge using a 20% test substance formulation led to no skin effects in the animals in the treatment group and in the animals in the control group.
In summary, under the conditions of the maximization test and with respect to the evaluation criteria the test substance therefore thus exhibits no skin-sensitization potentiaI.
