RESULTS OF TEST - Sensitization reaction: 0/20 animals positive at 24 hours and at 48 hours = no sensitization no animals positive in control group - Clinical signs: 1st induction, FCA application sites: severe erythema and edema, slight to severe necroses 1st induction, vehicle + test substance application sites: distinct erythema and edema 1st induction, vehicle application sites: slight erythema 2nd induction, test and control groups: some FCA injection sites bleeding, wounds from scratching; crust formation within 24 hours - Other: Mean body weight gain 124.8 g in test group, 120.1 g in control group = expected range

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
