Challenge
No.:
#1
Route:
epicutaneous, occlusive
Vehicle:
water
Concentration / amount:
25%
Day(s)/duration:
On day 28 for 6 hours. Observation were carried out at 1, 24 and 48 hours
Adequacy of challenge:
highest non-irritant concentration
No. of animals per dose:
Pre-Study: 2 animals were used randomly
Main Study: 20 animals in the treated group, 10 animals in the control group
Details on study design:
RANGE FINDING TESTS:
Pre-study
Animals: 2
Dosing Method: 0.2 mL undiluted (left flank first animal); 0.2 mL 50% of the test item solution(right flank of the first animal; 0.2 mL 25% of the test item solution (left flank of the second animal); 0.2 mL 12.5% of the test item solution (right flank on the second animal).
For every treatment the test patch systems were held in contact with skin by an occlusive patch and glutting by medical adhesive plaster.
The test patch systems were removed after 6 hours. Degreasing cotton was used for scrubbing the test area after removing the patch with ultrapure water.

Observation: The skin reaction was observed after removing the patch on 1st hour and 24th hour of treatment.
Dose design: The dose of the test item used for each induction exposure would cause highest irritation of mild irritation, and the dose used for the challenge exposure would be the highest non-irritation dose, according to the result of the pre-study. If all doses used in pre-study would not irritate skin, the highest dose would be used in induction and challenge.
Results: 0.2 mL test item was used in induction and 0.2 mL 25% was used in challenge

MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 3
- Exposure period: 6 h
- Test groups: Undiluted test sample was applied on the left flank cleared of air
- Control group: the same operation with the treated group was completed except test item
- Site: left flank
- Frequency of applications: 7 d interval (treatment on day 0, 7 and 14)
- Duration: 14 d
- Concentrations: undiluted

Degreasing cotton was used for scrubbing the test area after removing the patch with corn oil.

B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: day 28, 14 d after final induction
- Exposure period: 6 h
- Test groups: 25% (w/v in water)
- Control group: 25% (w/v in water)
- Site: right flank
- Concentrations: 25% (w/v in water)
- Evaluation (h after challenge): 24 h and 48 h
Degreasing cotton was used for scrubbing the test area after removing the patch with corn oil.
Re-challenge was not carried out.
Positive control substance(s):
yes
Remarks:
The procedure for skin sensitisation study in guinea pigs used was validated, 2-mercaptobenzothiazole, as positive control test item. The test was started in May 24, 2019 and finished on June 27, 2019.

Results and discussion

Positive control results:
The sensitisation incidence of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole was 30%. Thus, the experimental method and the animals used in this study were considered to be sentitive and reliable.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The sensitisation incidence of the control group is 0% and the sensitisation incidence of the treated group is 5%. Thus, under the GHS classification criteria DABCO NE 1550 is not classified as skin sensitiser.
Executive summary:

The skin sensitization potential of DABCO NE 1550 was determined in guinea pigs following repeated dermal application in an OECD TG 406 study (Buehler Method) under GLP condition.


0.2 mL undiluted test item was used in induction, and 0.2 mL 25% test item was used in challenge.


0.2 mL was applied to the shaved left flank every treated animal (20 animals) once per week during the induction period of three consecutive weeks. The control guinea pigs (10 animals) were handled in the same manner, but without test item in the induction. About two weeks after the third exposure, 0.2 mL 25% test item solution was applied to the shaved right flank of the treated and the control guinea pigs in challenge.


Results: Following each induction, there were no visible changes of the control animals, all animals of the treated group were found slight erythema of test area.


After challenge, there was not visible changes of the control animals, while one animal of the treated group was found discrete erythema on test area, and other 19 animals of the treated group were no visible changes. The sensitization incidence is 5%.


Thus, under the GHS classification criteria DABCO NE 1550 is not classified as skin sensitiser.
