Details on study design:
Induction, intradermal application:
Two intradermal injections (0.1 ml per injection) were made into the neck of the guinea pigs with a mixture of adjuvant and saline, with the test compound FAT 20'306/B in saline and with the test compound FAT 20306/B in the adjuvant saline mixture.

Induction, epidermal application:
One week later FAT 20'306/B was incorporated in Vaseline and applied on a filter paper patch to the neck of the animals (occlusive administration for 48 hours). The application sites were pretreated the day before with 10 % sodium lauryl sulfate (open application).

Challenge:
Two weeks after the epidermal induction application the animals were tested on the flank with 30 % FAT 20'306/B in Vaseline and the vehicle alone (24 h occlusive application). Twenty-four hours after removing the dressings the challenge reactions were graded according the Draize scoring scale. The application sites were chemically depilated 3 hours before examination (Veet, ~5 minutes). A second evaluation is made 48 hours after removing the dressings. The concentrations of the test compound for induction and challenge periods were determined on separate animals. A control group was treated with adjuvant and the vehicle during the induction period. During the challenge period the group was treated with the vehicle as well as with the test compound to control the maximal subirritant concentration of the test compound in adjuvant treated animals.

Executive summary:

The guinea pig maximisation test was carried out with FAT 20306/B in guinea pigs to assess the allergenic potential of test article according to the maximization test of Magnusson and Kligman (J. invest. Dermatol. 52, 268-276, 1969), recommended in the OECD guidelines 1981 and in the EEC directive 79/831. The test was performed on 10 male and 10 female guinea pigs per group. The sensitivity of the strain is controlled every six month with p-phenylenediamine.


Induction, intradermal application:


Two intradermal injections (0.1 ml per injection) were made into the neck of the guinea pigs with a mixture of adjuvant and saline, with the test compound FAT 20306/B in saline and with the test compound FAT 20'306/B in the adjuvant saline mixture.


Induction, epidermal application:


One week later FAT 20306/B was incorporated in vaseline and applied on a filterpaper patch to the neck of the animals (occlusive administration for 48 hours). The application sites were pretreated the day before with 10 % sodium lauryl sulfate (open application).


Challenge:


Two weeks after the epidermal induction application the animals were tested on the flank with 30 % FAT 20306/B in vaseline and the vehicle alone (24 h occlusive application). Twenty four hours after removing the dressings the challenge reactions were graded according the Draize scoring scale. The application sites were chemically depilated 3 hours before examination (Veet, ~5 minutes). A second evaluation is made 48 hours after removing the dressings. The concentrations of the test compound for induction and challenge periods were determined on separate animals. A control group was treated with adjuvant and the vehicle during the induction period. During the challenge period the group was treated with the vehicle as well as with the test compound to control the maximal subirritant concentration of the test compound in adjuvant treated animals. FAT 20306/B, at the concentration of 30 % in vaseline, did neither induce edema nor erythema reactions after epidermal challenge application. No toxic symptoms were evident in the guinea pigs of either the control and test group. No death occurred. Therefore, it indicates that test article shall not be classified in accordance with CLP (Regulation EC No.1272/2008).
