EXPERIMENTAL GROUP
On day 1, the experimental animals were clipped over an area of skin on the back behind the right shoulder. The area clipped was delimited by a cloth
frame whose square centre measured 2 x 2 cm. The clipped patch was then closely shaved. The ariimal was wrapped in a “window dressing” which consisted of an elastic bandage with a previously prepared 2 x 2 cm opening cut in the dressing. This opening was placed over the sensitization site. The dressing was fixed with adhesive tape. Dry ice was applied for approximately 5 seconds with firm pressure to the test site. The test substance: 50 % (w/w) in methyl cellulose 1% (0.2 ml) was applied and was covered with a Metalline patch. The area was then covered with occiusive tape (Sleek).
On day 3, the dressing covering the window was removed, the application site clipped, 0.2 ml of the test substance 50 % (w/w) in methyl cellulose 1%
applied and the window reclosed with the same dressirig.
On day 5, the window was again opened the application site clipped and 0.1 ml Freunds Complete Adjuvant (FCA, Difco, Detroit, U.S.A.) injected intradermally on either side of the sensitization site. This was followed by a further application of 0.2 ml of the test substance 50 % (w/w) in methyl cellulose 1% and the window closed.
On day 8, the dressing covering the window was removed, the application site clipped and the test substance 50 % (w/w) in methyl cellulose 1% was applied again.
On day 10, all wrappings were removed and the skin reactions of’ the induction applications observed immediately after bandage removal, according to the grading system for erythema described previously.
CONTROL GROUP
On day 5, the control animals were clipped and recieved two intradermal Freunds complete adjuvant in the right shoulder to exclude interpretation difficulties in the challenge caused by non—specific lowering of the skin irritation threshold by this substance.
Chal lenge
The test and control guinea pigs were challenged two weeks after the epidermal
induction application.
Hair was clipped and shaved from a 5 x 5 cm area on the left flank of each guinea—pig.
The following series of 3 test substance concentrations and the vehicle were applied using Square chambers attached to Micropore tape:
a = 25 % in methyl cellulose 1%.
b = 10 % in methyl cellulose 1%.
c = 5 % in methyl cellulose 1%.
d = methyl cellulose 1%.
Of each concentratjon and the vehicle, 0.05 ml was placed into a Square chamber. The patches were placed on the shaved area, the Micropore tape firmly secured around the trunk of the animals and held in place by Coban elastic bandage.
The location of the 4 Square chambers was as follows:
c b
Cranial caudal
d a
The dressings and residual test substance were removed after approximately 24 hours.
The sites were assessed for redness and swelling 24 and 48 hours after removal of the dressings, using the numerical grading system described below (modified from Kligman A.M., J. Invest. Oermatol. 47, 1966).
The test sites were shaved with an electric razor after the first reading.
no skin reaction 0
Red spots (scattered reactions) 1
Moderate but confluerit redness 2
Redness and swelling 3
Intense reddening and swelling 4
All animals were killed at the end of the test period by carbon dioxide asphyxiation. - Positive control substance(s):

Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- This positive control experiment was carried out in accordance to check the sensitivity of the test system as used by RCC NOTOX.
The positive control substance FORMALDEHYDE was obtained from Lamers & Pleuger, ‘s—Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands. It was fabricated under No. C 22500 and the purity was 35—37%.
Concentrations selected for this study were:
Epidermal induction: 2% (w/w) in milli—RO water.
Challenge:
a = 1% (w/w) in milli—RO water.
b = 0.5% (wiw) in milli—RO water.
c = 0.25% (wiw) in milli—RO water.
d = milli—RO water.
Clearly positive results were observed in the experimental animals after the challenge with 1% (w/w) FORMALDEHYDE in milli—RO water.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not sensitising
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions used in this study, UC—136 resulted in a sensitization rate of 5 per cent after epicutaneous appilcation to the guinea pig.
Applying the general classificatjon and labelling requirements for dangerous substances as laid down in Annex VI of the EEC Council Directjve 67/548/EEC (amended by Directive 83/467/EEC), the test substance need not be labelled as a skin sensitizer.
SENSITIZATION
These results lead to a sensitization rate of 5 per cent, which indicates that UC—136 has sensitizing properties in this test.
TOXICITY SYMPTOMS / MORTALITY
No symptoms of systemic toxicity were observed in the animals during the study.
One animal was found dead on day 19, without abnormal symptoms noted before.
At necropsy this animal showed white/yellow/greenish substance at the medial abdominal muscie and at the surface of the heart, dark red coloured medial abdominal subcutis, light brown/red fluid in thoracic cavity and red spotted areas in the lungs.
BODY WEIGHTS
The average body weight gain of experimental and control animals was similar.
