MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
INTRADERMAL INJECTION
- No. of exposures: 1
- Test groups: 3 pairs of injections - Freund's Complete Adjuvant, test material emulsified in Freund's Complete Adjuvant; test material (in vehicle ?)
- Control group: 3 pairs of injections - Freund's Complete Adjuvant, (vehicle in?) Freund's Complete Adjuvant; vehicle ? (Where FCA was used the test material was dissolved in this. It is unclear what vehicle was used for the injection without FCA or for epicutaneous induction.)
- Site: dorsal region
- Frequency of applications: once
- Duration: day 0
- Concentrations: 0.1 ml (or 0.1 g, both terms are used in the report)

EPICUTANEOUS APPLICATION
- No. of exposures: 1
- Exposure period: 48 hours
- Test groups: test material (it is unclear whether a vehicle was used)
- Control group: it is unclear whether the control group received an application of vehicle
- Site: dorsal region just behind injection site
- Frequency of applications: once
- Duration: day 7-9 (on day 6 the animals were treated with 10% sodium lauryl sulphate in petrolatum to induce mild irritation)
- Concentrations: 0.5 ml (or 0.5 g, both terms are used in the report)

B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: days 20-21
- Exposure period: 24 hours
- Test groups: 0.5 ml of the test material applied to each flank
- Control group: 0.5 ml of the test material applied to each flank
- Site: flanks
- Concentrations: total per animal 1.0 ml (or 1.0 g, both terms are used in the report)
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): immediately after removal of the patch and 24 and 48 hours later
Challenge controls:
Control (non-induced) animals were treated with 0.5 ml of the test material on each flank region (total applied 1.0 ml)

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
In a reliable study conducted using a protocol similar to OECD guideline 406, Lial 145 (C14-16 alcohols Type A) was not a skin sensitiser in guinea pigs (maximization procedure of Magnusson & Kligman).
