- Exposure period: 3 days
- Test groups: 312
- Control group: number not mentioned
- Site: healthy skin of the back
- Frequency of applications: daily for 3 days
- Duration: 3 days

- Evaluation (hr after challenge): no data available

OTHER: 312 consecutive patients underwent patch tests with reactive dyes to determine the allergic contact dermatitis potential.
The dyes tested were provided as powder by Hoechst and were dispersed in petrolatum. The dyes were applied to the healthy sin of the back with Finn Chambers, on Scanpor tape for 3 days and read at 3 hours after removal and at 4 days according to ICDRG Scoring pattern. The concentration used was 5% in 119 patients and 10% in 193 patients.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not sensitoxing
Conclusions:
No positive allergic or irritant reactions were observed in the volunteers when tested with 5% and 10% concentration of the dye.
Hence, Reactive Red 198 can be considered to not sensitizing to human skin.
Executive summary:

Patch tests were performed on 312 consecutive patients to determine the allergic potential of Reactive Red 198.

312 consecutive patients underwent patch tests with reactive dyes to determine the allergic contact dermatitis potential.

The dyes tested were provided as powder by Hoechst and were dispersed in petrolatum. The dyes were applied to the healthy sin of the back with Finn Chambers, on Scanpor tape for 3 days and read at 3 hours after removal and at 4 days according to ICDRG Scoring pattern. The concentration used was 5% in 119 patients and 10% in 193 patients.

No positive allergic or irritant reactions were observed in the volunteers when tested with 5% and 10% concentration of the dye.

Hence, Reactive Red 198 can be considered to not sensitizing to human skin.
