MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 3
- Exposure period: 6 hours
- Test groups: 1 (receiving 0.5 ml of undiluted test article)
- Control group: 2 (challenge control and positive control (0.3% DNCB in 80% ethanol/water))
- Site: along a side of the dorsal midline
- Frequency of applications: Weekly
- Duration: Three weeks

B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: Day 14 post induction applications
- Exposure period: 6 hours
- Test groups: 1 (receiving 0.5 ml of undiluted test article)
- Control group:2 (Challenge control and positive control (0.2% DNCB in 80% ethanol/water))
- Site: Naive area along a side of the dorsal midline
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 24- and 48-hours post-application, challenge sites were scored for erythema and edema according to the Draize technique
Positive control substance(s):
yes
Remarks:
2,4 dinitrochlorobenzene (2,4 DNCB)

Results and discussion

Positive control results:
Response grades, severity and incidence at the time of the challenge exposure for DNCB resulted in a significantly higher response in the induction/challenge group than that observed in the naive challenge control group.

DNCB:
Challenge: 24 h reading: 3.2 (response grade), 10/10 animals
48 h reading: 2.4 (response grade), 10/10 animals

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the test, the test article F-64-01 was not a delayed contact sensitizer and the positive control DNCB was a delayed contact sensitizer.
Executive summary:

Male Hartley Albino guinea pigs were dermally exposed to test article F-64-01 neat at a volume of 0.5 ml for each of three induction phases. For the challenge phase, the test article was administered undiluted for both the induction/challenge and challenge control group animals. Response grades, severity and incidence at the time of the challenge exposure for the test article F-64-01 indicated no dermal responsiveness in the induction/challenge group above that observed in the naive challenge control group. The naive challenge irritation control group animals were also free of any dermal response. Response grades, severity and incidence at the time of the challenge exposure for DNCB resulted in a significantly higher response in the induction/challenge group than that observed in the naive challenge control group.

Under the conditions of the test, the test article F-64-01 was not a delayed contact sensitizer and the positive control DNCB was a delayed contact sensitizer.
