MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 2 (intradermal and epicutaneous)
- Exposure period: 1 single injection and after one week 48 h epicutaneous occlusive application
- Test groups: injection: 0.1 mL FCA, 0.1 mL test substance, 0.1 mL test substance in FCA, epicutaneous: in petrolatum
- Control group: injection: 0.1 mL FCA, 0.1 mL vehicle, 0.1 mL vehicle in FCA, epicutaneous: in petrolatum
- Site: rectangle area (scapular region)
- Frequency of applications: one application each


B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day of challenge: two weeks after epicutaneous induction
- Exposure period: 24 h
- Test groups and control group: closed patch or open epicutaneous
- Site: back
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 24 h and 48 h

Challenge controls:
no
Positive control substance(s):
yes
Remarks:
test included various 1-alkyl-1,3-propione sultones

Results and discussion

Positive control results:
The 1-alkyl-1,3-propane sultones tested concurrently were positive, indicating the sensitivity of the test system.
