Details on study design:
RANGE FINDING TESTS:
For both the preliminary test and the main test, the application sites of all animals were:
• clipped before intradermal injections (interscapular region 4 cm x 2 cm),
• clipped before topical applications of the induction phase (same region),
• clipped and shaved before topical applications of the challenge phase
(each flank 2 cm x 2cm),
• shaved before the challenge phase.

Concentrations tested in the range finding test:
By intradermal route (tested concentrations: 10 %, 5 %, 1% and 0.1% (w/w)):
• intradermal injections of the dosage form preparations (0.1 mL) were performed in the
interscapular region,
• cutaneous reactions were evaluated approximately 24, 48 hours and 6 days after the
injections.
By cutaneous route
Under the conditions of the induction phase (tested concentrations: 100%, 50%, 10%, 5%
and 1 % (w/w)):
• a filter paper (approximately 4 cm2) was fully-loaded with a dosage form preparation and was
then applied to the clipped area of the skin. The filter paper was held in place by means of an
occlusive dressing for 24 hours,
• cutaneous reactions were evaluated 24 and 48 hours after removal of the dressing.
Under the conditions of the challenge phase (tested concentrations: 100%, 50%, 10%, 5%
and 1 % (w/w)):
•a filter paper (approximately 4 cm2) was fully-loaded with a dosage form preparation and was
then applied to the clipped area of the skin. The filter paper was held in place by means of an
occlusive dressing for 24 hours,
• cutaneous reactions were evaluated 24 and 48 hours after removal of the dressings.

Criteria for selection of concentrations
The following criteria were used:
• the concentrations should be well-tolerated systemically and locally,
• intradermal injections should cause moderate irritant effects (no necrosis or ulceration of
the skin),
• cutaneous application for the induction should cause at most weak or moderate skin reactions
or be the maximal practicable concentration,
• cutaneous application for the challenge phase should be the highest concentration which does
not cause irritant effects.

epicutaneous for induction: 10% (w/w) in 0.9% NaCl

B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: day 22
- Exposure duration: 24 h under occlusive dressing
- Test groups: 10 males and 10 females
- Control group: 5 males and 5 females
- Site: treatment with test item on the right flank, treatment with vehicle on the left flank
- Concentrations: 1% (w/w) in 0.9% NaCl (0.9% NaCl as control)
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 24 , 48 hours after removal of the dressing according to the method of Draize (See table 1 in results and discussion free-text for details)

GENERAL
- The animals were observed at least once a day during the study in order to check for clinical signs and mortality.
- The animals were weighed individually on the day of allocation into the groups, on the first day of the study (day 1) and on the last day of the study (day 25).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
Under the experimental conditions and according to the maximization method of Magnusson and Kligman, the test substance should not be considered as a skin sensitizer.
Executive summary:

The potential of the substance to induce delayed contact hypersensitivity was assessed in guinea pigs accordingto the OECD (n°406, 17th july 1992) and Commission Regulation (EC) (n°96/54/E.E.C., B.6, 30 july 1996) guidelines. The study was performed in compliance with the principle of Good Laboratory Practices regulations.

Thirty guinea pigs were allocated to two groups: a control group of five males and five females and a treated group of ten males and ten females. The induction phase was realized both by intradermal route on day 1 (Test material 0.1 % w/w in 0.9% NaCl) and by cutaneous route on day 8 (Test material 10% w/w in 0.9% NaCl). The challenge phase was realized on day 22 by cutaneous application of the test material at 1% w/w in 0.9% NaCl. The cutaneous reactions were scored 24 and 48 after the challenge phase.

No clinical signs and no deaths related to treatment were noted during the study. After the challenge application, no cutaneous reactions were observed in the treated animals nor in the control group.

The animals treated with positive control showed a satisfactory sensitisation response of 90% for 2,4-Dinitrochlorobenzene and 30% for mercaptobenzothiazole.

According to the Magnusson & Kligman maximization method, the test substance does not induce delayed contact hypersensitivity in guinea pigs.
