Type of study:
guinea pig maximisation test
Justification for non-LLNA method:
For animal welfare reasons no new study (LLNA) was conducted. Instead existing data was obtained via the SIEF. Therefore the type of study could not be influenced by the registrant at this point.

Details on study design:
RANGE FINDING TESTS: In an irritation screening study, a subgroup of four male guinea pigs received 0.1mL intradermal injections of T-7 prepared at concentrations of 0.1, 1.0, 5, 10, and 25% w/v in sterile water (five test sites per animal). The test sites were evaluated for dermal reactions at 24 and 48 hours after injection. A second irritation screening subgroup of four animals first received duplicate 0.1mL intradermal injections of 1:1 Freund’s Complete Adjuvant (FCA) and sterile water on the shaved shoulder area (one injection on each side of the midline). Seven days after administration of the intradermal injections, the animals received a topical application of the test material at concentrations of 10, 25, 50 and 75% w/v in sterile water. Each animal received all four concentrations of the test material (four test sites per animal). All test sites were occluded for 24 hours. After treatment, all four animals exhibited severe dermal reactions at some of the sites and clinical signs of toxicity including hypoactivity, lacrimation, hypothermia, dyspnea, squinted eyes, and decreased feces. As a result of these observations, the animals were sacrificed in a moribund condition and 24 hour scores were not obtained. A third irritation screening subgroup of four animals first received duplicate 0.1mL intradermal injections of 1:1 Freund’s Complete Adjuvant (FCA) and sterile water on the shaved shoulder area (one injection on each side of the midline). Seven days after administration of the intradermal injections, the animals received a topical application of the test material at concentrations of 0.1, 0.5, 1.0 and 5.0% w/v in sterile water. Each animal received all four concentrations of the test material (four test sites per animal). All test sites were occluded for 24 hours and dermal irritation was evaluated at 24 and 48 hours after removal of the patches.
