A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 2
- Day of induction: d0 (intradermal), d7 (topical)
- Test groups: test substance in PEG 400
- Control group: PEG 400
- Site: dorso-cranial
- Duration: 48 h (topical)
- Concentrations: 76.9%

B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day of challenge: d21
- Exposure period: 24 h
- Test groups: test substance in PEG 400
- Control group: test substance in PEG 400
- Site: right flank (caudal: test substance, cranial: vehicle)
- Concentrations: 76.9%
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 48+72 h after start of application
Challenge controls:
Naive controls (5 animals), challenged with 76.9% test substance in PEG 400
Positive control substance(s):

Remarks:
alpha-hexyl cinnamaldehyde

Results and discussion

Positive control results:
The Guinea Pig Maximization Test methodology was checked for reliability in a test on female guinea pigs using alpha hexyl cinnamic aldehyde formulated in polyethylene glycol 400 at the concentrations indicated below:
For the intradermal induction a 5% test item formulation was used, for the topical induction a 25% formulation and for the challenge a 12% formulation. After the challenge with the 12% test item formulation 100% of the test item animals exhibited dermal reactions in the challenge treatment. There was no reddening of the skin to be observed on control group animals.
