Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The aim of this study was to determine the sensitisation of Hexamethylene Diamine (HMD) with skin tests on Guinea Pigs. Two skin tests were performed. Firstly, a contact test with undiluted compound was performed, and secondly, a contact and sensitisation test was performed with a 2% aqueous solution of HMD, applied on skin with an initial patch and then with a final patch. For the contact and sensitisation test, a final injection was given to each rat after the customary ten-day rest period.
For all tests effects of HMD were analysed.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of study:
other: study performed before GLP statement
