Description of key information
In a Buehler skin sensitisation study conducted to OECD Test Guideline 406 and in compliance with GLP, N,N',N''-tricyclohexyl-1-methylsilanetriamine gave no evidence of sensitising potential in guinea pigs challenged at 1% in liquid paraffin following induction with 1% in the same vehicle.

Link to relevant study records
- Endpoint:
- skin sensitisation: in vivo (non-LLNA)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 1988-08-06 to 1990-04-09
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 406 (Skin Sensitisation)
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Information regarding positive control group not included in the report.

- Buehler test
- Justification for non-LLNA method:
- An LLNA study was not performed because there is an existing reliable study for skin sensitisation using the Buehler test method. Furthermore, the LLNA test method is not considered to be suitable for substances that contain silicon. Please refer to the attached document for further details.

PRELIMINARY STUDY:
At the preliminary study 5 % and 1 % solution of the test material in sterile Codex liquid paraffin were tested. When 0.5 ml of 5 % solution was applied to the guinea-pig skin, noticeable erythema was observed in the 4 treated animals. At 1 % concentration, slight erythema was noted in 1 out of 4 animals, which had no pathological aspect. No other clinical changes were observed.
MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
The left lateral abdominal reagion was clipped and shaved. The test material was applied at days 1, 8 and 15 - 3 hours exposures. 0.5 ml per animal of sterile Codex liquid paraffin was applied to the control group of guinea-pigs and 0.5 ml per animal of the test material in 1.0 % (W/W) sterile Codex liquid paraffin was applied to the test group. The animals were not subject to treatment from days 15 to 29 (14-day period). The observations were at 24 and 48 hours post-application.
B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
The site of exposure was the right posterior abdominal region. The application was at day 29 for 6 hours. 0.5 ml per animal of the test article in 1.0 % sterile Codex liquid paraffin (posterior flank) and 0.5 ml per animal of vehicle (anterior flank). The test article was applied to clipped and shaved skin under occlusive patch. The observations were at 24 and 48 hours post-application. - Challenge controls:

- Conclusions:

Reference
An increase in body weight was observed in all the animals of the control and test group.
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
- Additional information:
In the key study for skin irritation, semiocclusive application of undiluted test substance for three minutes to six male rabbits was found to result in erythema and edema with mean global scores (24 hours + 48 hours + 72 hours) of 3.44 for erythema and 1.17 for edema. The effects were not fully reversible within 14 days. Therefore, the concentration used in the challenge and induction phases was 1% in liquid paraffin. No evidence of delayed contact hypersensitivity was observed in any of the 20 test animals. Cutaneous abnormality was observed in 1 out of 20 test animals. It was concluded that the test substance was not sensitising under the conditions of the test.
Respiratory sensitisation
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no study available
