Details on study design:
RANGE FINDING TESTS:
Based on the results of the preliminary irritation study, the test substance concentrations selected for the main study were a 10% concentration for the intradermal induction and a 50% concentration for the epidermal induction exposure.
No signs of irritation were observed to the highest test substance concentration epidermally tested. Therefore, the test site of all animals was treated with 10% SDS approximately 24 hours before the epidermal induction in the main study, to provoke a mild inflammatory reaction.
A 50% test substance concentration was selected for the challenge phase.
Positive control substance(s):
yes
Remarks:
alpha-hexylcinnamic aldehyde

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
There was no evidence that the test substance had caused skin hypersensitivity in the guinea pig, since no responses were observed in the experimental animals in the challenge phase. This result indicates a sensitization rate of 0 per cent.
Executive summary:

Test substance concentrations selected for the main study were based on the results of a preliminary study. ln the main study, ten experimental animals were intradermally injected with a 10% concentration and epidermally exposed to a 50% concentration. Five control animals were similarly treated, but with vehicle alone (polyethylene glycol). Approximately 24 hours before the epidermal induction exposure all animals were treated with 10% SDS. Two weeks after the epidermal application all anímals were challenged with a 50% test substance concentration and the vehicle.

There was no evidence that the test substance had caused skin hypersensitivity in the guinea pig, since no responses were observed in the experimental animals in the challenge phase. This result indicates a sensitization rate of 0 per cent.
