Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not sensitizing
Conclusions:
No skin reactions could be observed neither in control group nor in the test group, 24 and 48 hours after removal of the patches. Olive oil, which was applied as a vehicle control to all animals, did not cause any skin reactions. Since no borderline results were observed, a 2nd challenge was not performed.
 
Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance Diethyl amino hydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate(CAS No: -302776-68-7)does not have a sensitizing effect on the skin of the guinea pig in the Maximization Test.
Executive summary:

The skin sanitization test of Diethylamino hydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate(CAS No: -302776-68-7)was conducted in 10 female guinea pigs to determine its sensitization potential. The study was conducted according to OECD 406 Guidelines.

 

For intradermal induction, the test animals received 6 injections (2 injections of a 0.1 ml Freund’s adjuvant/aqua dest 1:1, 2 injections of 0.1 ml of a 5% test substance formulation, 2 injections of a 0.1 ml 5% test substance formulation in Freund’s adjuvant/aqua dest 1:1). The intradermal induction with 5% test substance preparations caused moderate and confluent erythema and swelling or intense erythema and swelling in test group animals at 24 h after application. Percutaneous induction was carried out 1 week after intradermal induction. The test substance (25% in olive oil) and the vehicle were applied for 48 h to the animals under occlusive conditions. Incrustation, erythema and oedema were observed in test and control animals at 48 h after beginning of application. After the epicutaneous induction, incrustation, partially open (caused by the intradermal induction) could be observed in addition to moderate and confluent erythema and swelling in all test groups animals. A challenge with a 25% test substance preparation in olive oil was performed 14 days after the epicutaneous induction. No skin reactions could be observed neither in control group nor in the test group, 24 and 48 hours after removal of the patches. Olive oil, which was applied as a vehicle control to all animals, did not cause any skin reactions. Since no borderline results were observed, a 2nd challenge was not performed.

 

Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance Diethyl amino hydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate(CAS No: -302776-68-7)does not have a sensitizing effect on the skin of the guinea pig in the Maximization Test.
