Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
The test substance Pigment Yellow 26290 was evaluated for potential skin sensitizing properties in a maximisation test as decribed by Magnusson and Kligman. The test was performed on female guinea pigs. The following test compound concentrations were used in this test:
Intradermal induction: 2.5 %
Topical induction: 25 %
Challenge: 25 %
The test concentrations were determined in a dose finding assay. An intracutan injection of a 0 - 2.5% solution revealed no effect, whereas with a 5% solution wheals were obvious. With a topical induction and a challenge with a 25% solution no erythema and no edema were evident after 48 and 72 hours.
GLP compliance:
yes

Any other information on results incl. tables

Neither the test substance animals nor the control animals showed any skin reddening after challenge exposure to the 25% test compound formulation. The test compound was formulated in physiological saline solution (sterile) as a suspension.

Executive summary:

The test substance Pigment Yellow 26290 was evaluated for potential skin sensitizing properties in a maximisation test as decribed by Magnusson and Kligman. The test was performed on female guinea pigs.

Neither the test substance animals nor the control animals showed any skin reddening after challenge exposure to the 25% test compound formulation. The test compound was formulated in physiological saline solution (sterile) as a suspension.

Under the conditions of the maximisation test, the test compound has no skin sensitizing potential.
