MAIN STUDYA. INDUCTION EXPOSUREInduction: Intradermal InjectionsDay 0 – treated groupThree pairs of intradermal injections of 0.1 mL volume were given in the shoulder region, which was cleared of hair so that one of each pair lies on each side of the midline.Injection 1: a 1:1 mixture (v/v) Freunds Complete Adjuvant (FCA)/ physiological salineInjection 2: the test substance 30% in physiological salineInjection 3: the test substance 30% in a 1:1 mixture (v/v) FCA/ physiological salineDay 0 – control groupThree pairs of intradermal injections of 0.1 mL volume were given in the same sites as in the treated animals.Injection 1: a 1:1 mixture (v/v) Freunds Complete Adjuvant (FCA)/ physiological saline Injection 2: physiological salineInjection 3: physiological saline in a 1:1 mixture (v/v) FCA/ physiological salineInduction: Topical Application Day 6 - treated group24 hours before application (day 5) the test area was cleared of hair. A filter paper (2 x 4 cm) with 30% test substance in vaseline was applied to the test area and held in contact by an occlusive dressing for 48 hours. Day 6 – control group24 hours before application (day 5) the test area was cleared of hair. A filter paper (2 x 4 cm) with vaseline only was applied in a similar manner to the test area and held in contact by an occlusive dressing for 48 hours.B.

Positive control substance(s):
yes
Remarks:
α-hexylcinnamaldehyde
Positive control results:
Reliability of the experimental technique is checked periodically in about six-month interval by the experiment with known sensitiser α-hexylcinnamaldehyde. The result of last experiment (September 2015): positive skin reaction – 5 animals (total number of animals in exposed group = 10), i.e. 50%. According to the guideline the minimal number of animals with positive skin reaction should be 30%. The result is satisfactory.The results of reference study are described in Study No. 123/12/6MK- Ref/09/2015: Alfa-hexylcinnamaldehyd - Senzibilizace kůže, VUOS-CETA Report No. 15-511, 2015.

Conclusions:
The exposed animals showed no pathological skin reactions and no other negative clinical symptoms throughout the experiment.The body weight of animals increased through the study and it was not affected by the treatment. In the course of experiment the animals did not show any clinical symptoms of intoxication.The test substance, Reactive Orange 5, was not shown to be a contact allergen in guinea pigs.
Executive summary:

The test substance, Reactive Orange 5, was tested for the assessment of skin allergic effects using albino guinea pigs (strain BFA).

The test was performed according to the EU Method B.6, Skin sensitisation.

The method is analogous to the OECD Test Guideline No. 406, Skin sensitisation.

The Magnusson and Kligman maximization procedure was followed. The pilot experiment was implemented on 2 animals.

The main test was performed on 20 treated and 10 control animals.

The experiment proceeded in three phases: two induction phases - topical application and the challenge phase. Potential skin reactions were evaluated at the end of experiment.

The evaluation of skin reactions in the exposed group carried out at 48 and 72 hours after the start of the challenge phase of study did not show any changes in skin of animals in both flanks.

No allergic skin reactions were observed incontrol group 48 hours and at 72 hoursfrom the start of application of the challenge dose.

No other negative clinical symptoms through the experiment were recorded.

The test substance, Reactive Orange 5,was not shown to be a contact allergen in guinea pigs.

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on available data the test substance Reactive Orange 5 is not classified.
