Test material

In vivo test system

Test animals

Species:
mouse
Strain:
CBA
Sex:
female

Study design: in vivo (LLNA)

Vehicle:
propylene glycol
Concentration:
From 5% to 25% by weight of the test substance in propylene glycol
25 microlitres of the suspension were applied daily for three consecutive days
No. of animals per dose:
Four mice per concentration
A control group of 4 mice were treated with propylene glycol alone
Positive control substance(s):
other: phenylacetaldehyde CAS122-78-1

Results and discussion

Positive control results:
At a concentration of 2.5% in propylene glycol, the positive test substance, phenylacetaldehyde, which had been applied to five mice, showed a stimulation index of 18.43 and is known to be a skin sensitiser.

In vivo (LLNA)
