Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 406 (Skin Sensitisation)
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
Guinea pig maximisation test as described by Magnusson Kligman (1969, 1970) was used, under the same conditions as reported earlier (Wahlberg Boman, 1978)
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Guinea pig maximisation test as described by Magnusson Kligman (1969, 1970) was used. At intradermal induction 0.25 % of the drug in distilled water was used. At epicutaneous induction 20 % of the drug in petrolatum was used with previous SLS treatment. Challenge is by topical application. Provided there is no irritation. Challenge testing was performed on day 21 with 1, 5, and 10 % of the drugs in petrolatum. The chambers were left on the animals for 24 h. The challenge site is evaluated 24 hours and 48 hours after removal of the patch. The statistical method was chi-squared analysis.
GLP compliance:
not specified
Type of study:
guinea pig maximisation test
Justification for non-LLNA method:
Reference to existing guideline study (guinea pig maximization test). Additional animal testing is not considered necessary.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Quinine hydrochloride is a potent contact allergen.
Executive summary:

The contact sensitivity to quinine hydrochloride was experimentally determined in guinea-pigs. Quinine hydrochloride was found to be a grade V allergen according to Magnusson et al., 1969. 85 % and 95 % of the animals reacted to 5 % or 10 % of quinine hydrochloride, respectively and 25 % of the animals reacted to 1 % of quinine hydrochloride after 48 h. 80 % of the animals reacted to 10 % quinine hydrochloride and 85 % of the animals reacted to 5 % quinine hydrochloride after 24 h. 15 % of the animals reacted to 1 % quinine hydrochloride after 24 h. The control animals showed no reaction after 24 h and 48 h. Quinine hydrochloride is obviously a potent contact allergen and has to be classified.
