- Conclusions:
- The skin sensitization study of Ethyl Acetate (141-78-6) was performed by Guinea pig Magnusson-Kligman maximation test was considered to be not skin sensitizing in guinea pig.
- Executive summary:
The skin sensitization study of Ethyl Acetate(141-78-6)was performed byGuinea pig Magnusson-Kligman maximation test in 20guinea pigs.. An additional 10 animals served as the control group.In induction phase,1stinduction given using 0.1ml dose of 10% concentration inmaize germ oil by intradermal route while in 2ndinduction done by using undiluted test material by topical application.Freund's Complete Adjuvant (FCA) used in induction phase
In challenge phase, undiluted test material was applied topically for 48hr. After 24, no indication of skin sensitization was observed.No effect on body weight were noted .In induction phase, after intracutaneous application clear reddening, swelling and necroses at the injection sites treated with FCA and deionised water (1:1) observed in Test and control animals while only Clear reddening and swelling at the injection sites treated with the 10% product in maize germ oil in Test group and the control with just maize germ oil only showed slight reddening and swelling at the injection sites but Clear reddening and swelling and slight necroses at the injection sites treated with 10% product in a mixture of FCA and maize germ oil, 1:1 in Test group and those treated with FCA and maize germ oil, 1:1 in control group . After patch test with a contact duration of 48h. Inflammation at all the injection sites treated with FCA. 24h after removal of the patch, crust formation at the injection sites observed butno indication of skin sensitization was observed.Hence it is considered that Ethyl Acetate(141-78-6) was not skin sensitizing in guinea pig by Guinea pig Magnusson-Kligman maximation test.
