- RANGE FINDING TESTS:
A preliminary study was performed to determine the highest tolerated concentration. Three animals were injected intradermally with 1%, 3%, 10%, and 30% test substance in water. 30% was the highest concentration that could be injected. All animals showed necrosis at the 3%, 10%, and 30% injection sites at the 24 hr observation. At the 1% injection sites, all animals were given a dermal irritation score of 2, and abscesses were noted at 24 hrs after injection. Another three animals were tested by topical application at 10% and 30% test substance. No animals showed any irritation at either the 24 or 48 hr readings.
MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 2
- Exposure period: 2 exposures 1 week apart
- Test groups: Test animals were injected with a solution of 1:1 FCA/isotonic saline, 0.3% test substance in water, and 0.3% test substance in FCA/water 1:1. One week later they were pretreated with SLS and given topical applicaiton of 30% test substance.
- Control group: Control animals were injected with a solution of 1:1 FCA/isotonic saline, water, and FCA/water 1:1. One week later they were pretreated with SLS and given topical applicaiton of water or empty patches.
- Concentrations: 10% and 30%
B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: 14 days after last induction exposure
- Test groups: Topical application of 10% and 30% test substance.
- Control group: Topical application of 10% and 30% test substance.
- Concentrations: 10% and 30%
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 24 and 48 hrs after removal of the patches. - Positive control substance(s):
- no

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- LMD is not sensitizing to skin.
- Executive summary:
The skin sensitization potential of LMD was tested in an OECD Guideline 406 study. 5 male and 5 female guinea pigs were exposed to the test substance intradermally, and topically in exposures one week apart. A control group was exposed to vehicles only. 2 weeks later, both groups were exposed to the 10% and 30% of the test substance topically. No reactions were seen in any animals during the challenge exposure. The test substance is therefore not sensitizing to skin.
