PRETEST:
- For detecting a possible influence on irritating effects of previous intradermal treatment with Freund's adjuvant, animals pretreated with Freund's adjuvant / 0.9% aqueous NaCl-solution (1:1) each, in the same manner as intradermal induction about 3 weeks prior to the application of the test substance were used.
- Amount applied: 2 x 2 cm filter paper strips were applied to the skin of the flanks under an occlusive dressing (the bandage consists of rubberized linenpatches 4 x 4 cm from Russka, test patch 5 x 5 cm of Idealbinde from Pfälzische Verbandstoff-Fabrik, and Fixomull Stretch (adhesive fleece) from Beiersdorf AG). The test filter paper strip was soaked in the test substance or test substance formulation; thus, the animals were exposed to about 0.15 g of the test substance or test substance formulation.
- Exposure period: The test substance was applied 2 times for 24 hours within a period of 96 hours in order to detect nonspecific phenomena that are not caused by a sensitization reaction but could possibly be attributed to a shift in the irritation threshold.
- Site of application: flank, respective on the same area
- Number of test animals: 4 per test concentration
- Readings: about 24 and 48 h after the beginning of application
- Assessment of the skin findings: According to Draize

INDUCTION EXPOSURE: Intradermal induction
- Injections for the test group: 6 intradermal injections in groups of two per animal
A) front row : 2 injections each of 0.1 mL Freund's adjuvant without test substance emulsified with 0.9% aqueous NaCl-solution in a ratio of 1:1
B) middle row: 2 injections each of 0.1 mL of the test substance formulation
C) back row : 2 injections each of 0.1 mL Freund's adjuvant / 0.9% aqueous NaCl-solution (1:1) with test substance
- Injections for controls: The animals were given the same injections (A, B, C) but without test substance, only with the formulating agent.
- Site of application: shoulder
- Readings: 24 h after the beginning of application
- Assessment of the skin findings: analogous to the pretest

INDUCTION EXPOSURE: Percutaneous induction
- Percutaneous induction was carried out one week after intradermal induction
- Amount applied: 2 x 4 cm filter paper strips were applied to the skin of the shoulder under an occlusive dressing (the bandage consists of rubberized linenpatches 6 x 4 cm from Russka and Fixomulle Stretch (adhesive fleece) from Beiersdorf AG). The filter paper strip was soaked in the test substance; thus, the animals were exposed to about 0.3 g of the test substance. The controls were not treated, since the test substance was applied unchanged and thus no solvent was used.
- Duration of exposure : 48 hour
- Site of application: shoulder, same area as in the case of the previous intradermal application
- Readings: 48 h after the beginning of application
- Assessment of the skin findings: analogous to the pretest

CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- Challenge: 21 days after intradermal induction
- Amount applied : 2 x 2 cm filter paper strips were applied to the skin of the flank under an occlusive dressing (the bandage consists of rubberized linenpatches 4 x 4 cm from Russka, test patch 5 x 5 cm of Idealbinde from Pfälzische Verbandstoff-Fabrik, and Fixomull(D Stretch (adhesive fleece) from Beiersdorf AG). The test filter paper strip was soaked in the test substance formulation; thus the animals were exposed to about 0.15 g of the test substance formulation. Treatment of the test group and of control group 1 with the unchanged test substance.
- Duration of exposure: 24 hours
- Site of application: intact flank
- Readings: 24 and 48 h after the removal of the patch
- Assessment of the skin findings: analogous to the pretest

PRETEST
- In the preliminary test after two 24-hour percutaneous occlusive applications within 96 hours the unchanged test substance was found to be non-irritant.

MAIN TEST
-After the intradermal induction well-defined erythema and slight edema could be observed at the injection sites of the control group animals and test group animals at which only Freund's adjuvant/0.9% aqueous NaCl-solution 1:1) was applied. Injection of the test substance preparation in 0.9% aqueaus NaCl-solution caused very slight erythema in 13 test group animals and well-defined erythema in 7 out of 20 test group animals, at which 3 out of these 7 test group animals additionally showed very slight edema. After injection of the test substance preparation in Freunds adjuvant/0.9% aqueous NaCl-solutian 1:1) the test group animals exhibited well-defined erythema and slight edema.The control group animals injected with 0.9% aqueous NaCl-solution did not show any skin reaction.
- The percutaneous induction was only carried out in the test group animals, because the test substance was applied unchanged and thus na solvent was used. Incrustation partially open (caused by the intradermal inductian) could be observed in addition to well defined erythema and slight edema.
- The challenge with the unchanged test substance did not cause any skin reactions neither in the test group animals nor in the animals of control group.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

not sensitising

Remarks:

Migrated information

Conclusions:

Based on the results of the study under the test conditions chosen the test substance does not have a sensitizing effect on the skin of the guinea pig in the Maximization Test.

Executive summary:

The test substance was tested for its sensitizing effect on the skin of 20 guinea pigs in the Maximization Test performed according to OECD guideline 406 and in compliance with GLP. The intradermal induction with the 5% test substance preparations caused very slight to well-defined signs of irritation in the test group animals. After percutaneous induction (one week after intradermal induction) with the unchanged test substance incrustation, partially open (caused by the intradermal induction) in addition to well-defined erythema and slight edema could be observed in the test group animals. The challenge (3 weeks after intradermal induction) with the unchanged test substance did not cause any skin reactions neither in the test group animals nor in the animals of the control group. Based on the results of the study under the test conditions chosen the test substance does not have a sensitizing effect on the skin of the guinea pig in the Maximization Test.
