Details on study design:
PRELIMINARY STUDIES:
Maximum Non Necrotizing Concentration (M.N.N.C.) determination: 2 female guinea pigs n° C6910 & C6911 were used. The test item was injected by intradermal route at the following concentrations: 100%, diluted at 50%, 25%, 12.5%, 6.25% and 3.125% in olive oil. No necrosis has been observed, since the concentration of 25%, the first induction has been carried out by intradermal injection at the same concentration.
Pre-Maximum Non Irritant Concentration (Pre-M.N.I.C.) determination: 2 female guinea pigs n° C6910 & C6911 were used. The test item was applied under an occlusive dressing during 24 hours, at the following concentrations 100%, diluted at 50%, 25% and 12.5% in paraffin oil. 24 hours after the removal of the occlusive dressings, it was noted a slight erythema on the treated area at 100% in one animal. In view of these results, the concentration selected was 100% for the 2nd induction of the main study and the MNIC determination began at this concentration of 50%.
Maximum Non Irritant Concentration (M.N.I.C.) determination: 3 female guinea pigs n° C6941 to C6943 were used. After induction by intradermal injection with olive oil and by topical application with paraffin oil and a 17-day rest phase, the challenge phase under occlusive dressing for 24 hours consists in a single topical application of the test item at the following concentrations: diluted at 50%, 25%, 12.5% and 6.25% in paraffin oil. 24 hours after removal of the occlusive dressings, no cutaneous reaction was recorded. In view of this result, the concentrations selected were 50% (MNIC) and 25% (1/2 MNIC) for the challenge phase.

MAIN STUDY
Induction phase: The induction phase was performed by intradermal injection at D0 with the test item at 25% and by topical application at D7 with the test item at 100% during 48 hours, 24 hours after brushing with a solution of sodium lauryl sulfate.

Any other information on results incl. tables

Sensitising potential assessment: No macroscopic cutaneous reactions attributable to allergy was recorded during the examination following the removal of the occlusive dressing (challenge phase) from the animals of the treated group with the test item.

No cutaneous intolerance reaction was recorded in animals from the negative control group.

Weight evolution: No abnormality was recorded in the weight growth of both groups.

Mortality: No mortality occurred during this study.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the test conditions, test item must not be classified according to CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 and Globally Harmonized System (GHS).
Executive summary:

In a Magnusson & Kligman maximisation study (GPMT) performed according to OECD Guideline 406 and in compliance with GLP, induction (intradermic injection at 25% in olive oil and topical application at 100%) of 10 Guinea Pigs of treated group with the test item and a 17-day rest phase, the challenge phase, under occlusive dressing for 24 hours, consisted to a single topical application of the test item at 50% and 25% in paraffin oil were performed. The test concentrations for the main study were determined from a preliminary study.

 

No macroscopic cutaneous reactions attributable to allergy was recorded during the examination following the removal of the occlusive dressing (challenge phase) from the animals of the treated group with the test item. No cutaneous intolerance reaction was recorded in animals from the negative control group.

 

The sensitivity of the guinea-pig was checked with known sensitiser i.e., α-Hexylcinnamaldehyde indicating the validity of the study.

 

Under the test conditions, test item must not be classified according to CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 and Globally Harmonized System (GHS).
